of femora mars orange (I1)*; thorax above, some hairs at base of 
antennz, abdomen above, ground-colour of both wings on upper-side 
and fore-wing on under-side light cadmium, ranging into empire 
yellow (IV); antenne mars yellow (III); hairs on inner-side of 
femora, tibie and tarse light cadmium, on outer-side dark mouse gray 
(LI); abdomen on under-side light cadmium, broadly ringed with

Fore-wing sub-triangular; costa well arched; apex somewhat 
rounded ; outer-margin nearly straight, slightly concave between 
veins 3 to 6; tornus well rounded; inner-margin straight; costa 
edged with mouse gray (LI) for two-thirds up to vein 11; anti-medial 
line almost straight, erect, from costal edging to inner-margin, mouse 
grey on inner-side, followed by light mouse gray (LI) and gradually 
becoming pinkish ; ocellus large oval, as broad as disco-cellular, outer 
ring light mouse gray, then a narrow black ring, then a light cadmium 
ring, leaving a large hyaline patch in middle which has on inner-side 
a straight edge and on outer-side a well rounded edge; an almost 
straight post-medial line from costa to inner-margin, not touching the 
ocellus, somewhat parallel to outer-margin and a little curved between 
veins 1b and 2, on inner-side this line is broadly light mouse gray 
and on outer-side rather narrow mouse gray; space between anti- 
medial and post-medial line irrorated with cinnamon-brown (X) mixed
