Fulvous, inclining to ferruginous ; a basal space {much wider in 

 fore-wing) ;pale-yellow, ivith the nervures a'ossing it bright pale-green ; 

 area beyond middle dark-broivn, marked with a submarginal row of 

 very distinct fulvoiis spots and a hind-marginal row of fxdvous lunidate 

 spots (in hind-wing forming a continuous border). Fore-iving : costal 

 edge bright pale-green like the nervures ; basal yellow extending to a 

 little before middle, where it fades into the fulvous ; from subcostal 

 nervure at extremity of discoidal cell an irregular outwardly- dentate 

 dark-brown streak, narrowing downward, interrupted on third and 

 second median nervules, and ending a little below the latter nervule ; 

 a little beyond this streak, a subcostal irregularly quadrate dark-brown 

 marking, touching dark-brown of outer area on lower radial nervule, 

 and so isolating a rather larger fulvous marking immediately suc- 

 ceeding it; seven well-defined rounded spots in submarginal row (which 

 is curved superiorly), increasing in size downward ; lunulate hind- 

 marginal spots also increasing downward, but mostly ill- defined (ex- 

 cept the lowest), and partly confluent. Hind-iving : basal yellow very 

 limited inferiorly, only extending into upper part of discoidal cell, — 

 the costal and subcostal nervures bright pale-green ; inner-marginal 

 and lower discal area ferruginous-fulvous ; dark-brown of outer area 

 narrowing downward to first median nervule, where it ends ; its six 

 fulvous spots decreasing and narrowing downward, the lowest being 

 almost linear; a subocellate marking at anal angle, consisting of 

 two lunulate black spots, bordered internally by pale-bluish and an
