 Upperside : — Fore wings pale brownish grey, crossed by a dark 

 brown baud, interrupted by the nervures from before the apex to 

 near the posterior margin at two-thirds of its length from the base, 

 beyond the band darker, with a slightly marked and incomplete sub- 

 marginal line, before which is a series of five pale lanceolate blotches 

 between the nervures directed towards the outer margin. All the 

 nervures tinged with yellow and more or less dark-bordered. Hind 

 wings : anterior portion from base to outer margin pale, posterior 

 portion bright yellow, crossed by a submarginal series of three dark- 

 bordered white' blotches, and a fourth fainter blotch between the ner-

 second median nervure. The submedian nervure fringed from its origin 

 to near its extremity with long yellowish hairs, longest and most 

 conspicuous towards its extremity. 



Underside :— Both wings crossed by a dark ferruginous band with 

 sharply defined outer edge from the costa of the fore wing near tbe 

 apex to near the extremity of the submedian nervure of the hind 

 wing, and having a faintly traced submarginal line, before which is 

 a series of blind white-centred ocelli. The cell of the fore wing 

 crossed near its middle by a curved ferruginous band. Hind wing 

 crossed by a ferruginous baud near the base.
