middle, and more distal ; spot below vein 2 close to margin and curved 

 to a point on the submedian fold. A round subapical spot of pale 

 yellow-orange in cellule 6, and sometimes a dot beyond it on 7. Inner 

 margin strongly lobed and forming a wide angle with the outer margin 

 at vein 2. Hind wing chestnut-brown merging into black-brown at 

 the distal margin. A narrow marginal border of ochraceous-orange. 

 A small ocellus in 2, slightly encroaching on veins 2 and 3, pupil 

 black ringed with paler brown than the ground-colour and bearing a 

 curved mark of bluish-white scales. Costal area paler w T ith an area 

 of grey scaling between vein 5 and the middle of cellule 7, the pale 

 area extending slightly into cell and base of cellule 4. Costal edge 

 strongly convex at middle and slightly incurved before the apex. 



Underside fuscous, shading into black - brown, and with paler 

 markings of hair-brown (xlvi). Fore wing with band and subapical 

 spot as above, pale yellow-orange (iii). A subapical black ocellus in 

 cellule 5, its thin ring crossed by vein 6 and extending into cellule 4, 

 ovate in shape but flattened on the outside where the edge is pale yellow- 

 brown, the remainder being suffused with black-brown ; the ocellus bears 

 a curved mark of bluish-white scales. A pale marginal line, and a 

 much thinner pale submarginal line, both commencing on the costa 

 before the apex and running into the band posteriorly. A pale straight 

 line cutting the cell at right angles to costa at vein 2, and proximally 

 diffused. The submedian area paler hair-brown, inner margin darker. 

 Hind wing with marginal border of pale yellow-orange. Two large 

 ocelli with black pupils bearing some bluish- white scales ; each ringed 

 with two thin brown lines, and an outer much thicker brown line ; 

 costal ocellus reaching middle of cellule 4, its outer ring broken by the 

 costa ; median ocellus distally placed, its outer ring not touching vein 4 

 and reaching the middle of cellule lc. In the cell two pale curved lines 

 forming a somewhat kidney-shaped spot ; a discal pale thick line from 

 the costa to vein lb, bordering the middle and lower discocellulars, 

 then bent inwards to vein 2 and curving to the submedian area. 

 Cellules la and lb hair-brown. An irregular submarginal pale line 

 from the costa on the outer ring of the ocellus to vein lb, and touching 

 outer ring of the lower ocellus in middle of cellules lc and 2. 



? . Upperside bone-brown (xl) distally darker. Markings as in the 

 3 , but the bands a little wider, wmite with a faint yellow tinge. 



Underside w T ith bands as above, ground-colour a little paler than 

 in the £ . Fore wing ocellus more rounded. Hind w T ing exactly as 

 in the S .
