 arranged in two submarginal rows which follow the curvature of the 

 outer margin ; and an irregular cluster in and about the end of the 

 cell : beneath whitish, with spots corresponding to those of the 

 upper surface, those on the primaries dark, those on the secondaries 

 rufous.

 row of black spots on both wings, bounded on either side by narrow 

 blue-grey waved lines ; margin of the secondaries inwardly red for

 margin dark brown : beneath with the margins as above, but with 

 the inner irregular line encircling the black submarginal row of spots 

 nearly white ; two irregular white spots on the outer margin of the 

 primaries, one near the middle and one near the apical angle ; the

 spot from the anal angle halfway along the inner margin, an irre- 

 gularly defined double submarginal row of spots, and the whole of 

 the remainder of the secondaries ochre-yellow ; across the cell and 

 the region of the median nervure are some obsolete dark transverse
