Imago. — Male. Upperside brown ; a sub-marginal fascia on both wings, and an 

 undulated discal fascia on the bindwing, darker brown ; the ocelli-area paler and 

 slightly sprinkled with cinereous strigge on the hindwing; cilia pale cinerescent- 

 brown. Foretving with a large prominent bipupilled ocellus, and a prominent discal 

 dusky-black glandular patch, which extends also over the end of the cell, the 

 patch clothed with short rounded-tipt pale battledore-scales, a few longer narrow 

 pale scales with attenuated base and bluntly serrate-tips, interspersed with very 

 numerous long blackish androconia, which are extremely slender and filiform with 

 slightly thickened base and tassel-tip. Hindwing with two prominent median ocelli, 

 and generally two minute anal ocelli, sometimes one only of the latter being present, 

 in others, also, either one or two subapical small ocelli are sometimes present, and 

 thus form a continuous series. Underside cinerescent-white, sometimes more ochreous- 

 white, numerously covered with olivescent-brown strigse, and crossed by a subbasal, 

 a discal, and a submarginal more or less defined brown fascia. Forewing with a 

 large apical ocellus, as above, bipupilled with silvery-blue. Hlndiving with six 

 prominent ocelli, two apical, two median, and two minute anal, each with a silvery- 

 blue pupil, the series being disposed in echelon across the wing ; sometimes a small 

 ocellus occurs between the upper and median pairs. 



Female. Upperside paler, the ocelli-area on both wings mottled with cinerescent- 

 whitish strigge, the base also somewhat more or less similarly mottled ; ocelli as in 

 the male, but larger. Underside as in the male. Body above brown ; body beneath, 

 palpi, and legs beneath cinereous-white; hairs of palpi tipt with brown; legs above 

 brown.

 slightly smaller ; glandular patch and transverse brown fasciae also the same. Under-
