shade in some lights than in others. Forewing with a dot towards 

 the outer end of the discoidal cell touching the subcostal nervure ; 

 a lengthened streak from the base of the wing posterior to the cell 

 placed against the median nervure, anteriorly narrow, poste- 

 riorly broad, crossed by the black first and second median nervules ; a 

 large triangular-shaped spot in the middle of the submedian inter- 

 space, posterior to which is an inwardly oblique streak ending on the 

 inner margin, but not extending as far as the base of the wing ; three 

 increasing subapical streaks ; six submarginal spots, the three anterior 

 ones lengthened, the two following circular, the posteriormost round 

 and the largest. Hindimng with the costa broadly pale ochreous ; a 

 lengthened basal streak in the submedian interspace, joined outwardly 

 to the innermost of three large triangular discal spots ; these latter have 

 their apices directed towards the outer margin of the wing ; beyond 

 these on the outer margin are three lunular spots, the anal one the 

 largest and enclosing a spot of the black ground-colour. Undeeside, 

 both loings dull reddish-brown, strongly glossed throughout with dull 

 violaceous. Forewing with a narrow dark line closing the cell ; an 

 irregular narrow discal dark line from the costa to the submedian 

 nervure, beyond which the ground-colour is paler ; a broad dark 

 outer-discal fascia, its inner edge blurred, its outer edge more distinct ; 

 beyond which again the ground-colour is paler. Hindioing crossed by 

 an irregular broad discal paler area, which bears a prominent narrow 

 dark line across the disco-cellular nervules, and a double series of dark 

 spots, of which the two in the median interspaces of the outer series 

 are the largest ; the outer margin also paler, bearing two narrow 

 lunulated dark lines, prominent at the anal angle, becoming obsolete 

 anterior to the third median nervule ; an anteciliary dark ferruginous 

 line, inwardly defined by a very fine black line. Female. Uppers- 

 side, hoth loings shining smoky-brov/n. Ilindwing with a very narrow 

 anteciliary blue line, becoming obsolete towards the apex of the wing. 

 Underside, both wings pale brown, with markings of a darker brown 

 tinged with castaneous ; the basal area of the wings dark brown, the 

 outer edge of this area sharply defined. Forewing with a broad 

 wedge-shaped discal area, broad on the costa, narrow on the inner 

 margin, closely followed by a narrow irregular line ; the outer margin 

 broadly dark brown. Hindwing with an inner discal broken narrow
