I06 ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS. [April, 'o2 



The upper surface of both wings is dark brown suffusing to very light 

 brown or bronze in outer half of wings. The entire surface has a golden 

 lustre. 



Fringe at hind margin of forewing is dark brown. Hind margin is 

 edged with a dark thread. The space within the hind margin for a quar- 

 ter of an inch is somewhat darker than the area next within it and is 

 bordered on its inner side by a dark jagged line running from the sub- 

 costal nervule down to the lower submedian nervule. This line is very 

 indistinct in some specimens, quite imperceptible in others. Within this 

 line is an area of very light brown or bronze covering apical area and ex- 

 tending downwards to inner margin ; it suffuses into the dark brown of 

 basal area as it reaches discoidal space. In some specimens the basal side 

 of this light area is bordered by a very distinct jline of very dark brown, 

 starting near costa and running across outer edge of discoidal space, then 

 extending outwards towards hind margin and in next lower interspace 

 turning towards the base and then turning abruptly towards lower angle. 

 In such specimens the light area of outer half of wing appears as a broad 

 distinct band with its dark borders on either side. The inner margin is 

 black. In the apical area midway from discoidal space to hind margin 

 are two very prominent ocelli adjoining one another, black with a white 

 dot at centre, one above the other and surrounded by light yellowish. 

 Below these in interspace above the lower submedian nervule is another 

 similar ocellus but smaller. In some specimens these ocelli are wanting, 

 there being but one black dot only in apical area. 



The hind wing is dark brown suffusing to light, brown or bronze towards 

 hind margin. The nervures and nervules are soft dark brown as they 

 cross this light area. One-eighth inch within the hind margin is a dark 

 line running from upper angle and disappearing as it reaches the anal 

 angle. 



Under side of forewing dark brown with a slight golden lustre. Hind 

 marginal fringe dark brown. Hind margin liordered by a dark thread. 

 From the costa one-quarter distance from the apex to base is a distinct 

 dark line running to submedian nervure one-eighth inch within hind mar- 

 gin. There is another line crossing centre of wing from lower subcostal 

 nervule to submedian nervure just outside the discoidal space. This line 

 is irregular. The basal area has no markings. 



The under side of hind witig resembles in general appearance, the 

 markings in the genus Chiunobas. Tiie ground color is dark brown. 

 The nervures and nervules are distinctly white in most specimens. A 

 dark line runs from upper angle to the submedian nervure one-eighth 

 inch within hind margin and following its contour. Across the centre of 

 the wing from costa towards anal angle is another irregular dark line. 

 These two lines are contmuations of those on forewing. In the area be- 

 tween these lines is a series of four or five inlerspacial elongated whitish 

 H(M)ts, very prominent in some specimens. The basal area has a mottled 

 ap|>earancv owing to a mass of semi-prominent dark interspacial lines.
