the costa in an oblique direction towards outer margin, then curves 
inwards and upwards to the median nerve, which it traverses for a 
short distance, then descends to the inner margin making one sharp 
angle in its course; a dark wavy submarginal line and a series of 
dark marginal lunules; stigmata indistinct : secondaries pale yel- 
lowish orange, with broad blackish outer margin and a dash of the 
ground-colour at outer angle; central band interrupted before the 
costa. Under surface pale yellowish orange; blackish central line 
and outer border to all the wings ; the outer angle of secondaries is 
tipped with orange. Abdomen grey, tinged with tawny beneath.
