the wings being greyer than in G. limholalifi^ Moore. Fore 

 wings with the costal and basal portion suffused with dark 

 greyish ochreous, and a broad marginal band of the same 

 colour on both wings, widest on the costa, narrowing hind- 

 wards very gradually on botli wings, leaving a pale discal 

 baud-like space, limited internally on both wings by the outer 

 lines, which are nearly straight downwards ; interior line on 

 fore wings indistinct, from costal third to middle of hinder 

 margin, on hind wings obsolete ; cilia pale dull ochreous ; a 

 grey spot at end of cell of fore wings. Underside pale 

 ochreous grey, markings as above ; body and legs white, fore 

 legs with brown bands. 



Expanse of wings -^-^ inch. 



Cherra Punji. Several examples. 



A smaller insect than 0. limbolalis^ Moore ; the marginal 

 band narrower and paler, being merely a darker shade of the 

 ground-colour of the wings, and not purple as in limholalis ; 

 the transverse lines similarly disposed.

f$ . Palpi chestnut-red, white beneath ; thorax and basal 

 portion of abdomen white;, head, fore part of thorax, and 

 remainder of abdomen tinged with pale reddish grey ; the 

 lower basal half of fore wings and costal portions (broadly) 

 of hind wings white, the rest of the wings with the ground- 

 colour suffused with very pale luteous grey, and over this 

 colour there is a darker suffusion of clear chestnut-red on the 

 fore wings, on the basal half of costa, and the outer portions 

 of the wing, with the exception of a large patch on the costa 

 at the apex, which is left luteous grey ; these two red spaces 

 are joined together by a dark brown bar from the middle of 

 the costa, which runs to a little below the middle of the outer 

 margin : the hind wing has also the outer margin broadly 

 suffused with chestnut-red. A brown lunule at end of cell of 

 fore wings, a brown point at end of cell of hind wings ; fore 

 wings with an interior, outwardly curved, thin, and sinuous 

 brown Hue, and a similar exterior line across both wings, 

 dentated in the central outward curves on both wings ; mar- 

 ginal line brown, lunular ; cilia grey, interlined with brown. 

 Underside : body, legs, and wings white, the bar on fore 

 wing and outer lines visible.

Cherra Punji. Several examples. 



Wings shaped as in L. illectaliSj Walker ; transverse lines
