86 South African Heterocera 
little beyond apical ocellus, obliquely inwards to vein 9, then outwards 
to vein 8, then inwards and running along 8 to fork of 8—9, then 
zigzagging outwards till half-way 7 and 8, then forming a large curve 
and running some distance along vein 7, then running back along 
under-side of vein 7 and then at a sharp angle outwards again, 
touching the black apical ocellus, then forming a semi-circular light 
blue line, remote from the inner-side of the black ocellus and with the 
space filled up with pale amparo blue scales so as to form a crescent 
mark, then the line becomes faint and goes inwardly oblique across 
vein 6, there joining the black sub-terminal line, then it goes inwards 
again forming a very irregular faint deep-chrome (III) boundary to 
the post-medial band; a rounded black sub-terminal ocellus between 
vein 6 and 7; apical half beyond the white sub-terminal line ecru-olive 
(XXX) from vein 7 to 8 and from vein 7 obliquely to apical ocellus ; 
terminal area from apex to tornus and cilia pale chalcedony yellow 
(XXII); a second sub-terminal ecru-olive line from vein 8 to 6 
parallel to outer-margin and gradually becoming mixed with black, 
beyond vein 6 curving inwards to join the first sub-terminal line, then 
becoming quite black and very sharply defined and separated from 
first sub-terminal line and more or less parallel to outer-margin, this 
line undulates very much, sharply curving inwards at each vein and 
forming a rounded inward curve between the veins. 
Hind-wing white till post-medial line, with burnt lake medial line 
from costa to ocellus and from ocellus to above tornus, incurved at 
vein 16; ocellus well rounded, large and about as broad as two-thirds 
of its length, a black ring all round it, on basal third a narrow white 
ring against it, which forms a boundary around the almost round 
hyaline patch, between the black and the white ring is a space left on 
the outer two-thirds of the ocellus, which is filled in with dull yellow- 
green ; post-medial burnt lake band irrorated with white scales for 
basal half, this irroration having a pointed shape towards tornus ; a 
rather broad, distinct, deep chrome (III) boundary line just beyond 
the burnt lake band, irregularly curved| between the veins; beyond 
this a series of usually triangular black spots; terminal space and 
cilia lime-green (XX XI); a sub-terminal irregular well-defined black 
line, incurved at and between the veins, very deeply between vein 5 
and 6; a series of sub-terminal, semi-transparent elongated patches 
covered with a few loose scales only, the patches are situated in pairs 
on each side of veins 2, 3, 4 and 5. 
Under-side: fore-wing as on upper-side, but white scaling of post- 
medial band extended further; hind-wing with white only on costa
