74 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA. 



distinct large subapical black ocellus, bipupilled, and ringed -witli ochreous-yellow ; 

 with a faintly defined darker-brown suboiarginal and a discal fascia ; glandular 

 patch not apparent, its area clothed with short, and a few longer, broad scales with 

 dentate tips, interspersed with a very few dark filiform androconia. Hindwing 

 with two small subanal ocelli. Underside cinereous-white, with numerous distinctly 

 defined very slender brown strigge. Forewing with the ocellus somewhat larger and 

 brighter than on upperside ; crossed by a well-defined darker brown slightly 

 recurved submarginal and a discal fascia. Euidicing crossed by a similar brown 

 recurved medial and a discal fascia and a broken submarginal fascia, the latter 

 partly encompassing the ocelli ; a geminated apical pair of prominent ocelli, and 

 three linearly-disposed lower ocelli, the anal smallest and duplex. 



Female. Upperside slightly paler. J^ore?r«?i^ with the ocellus larger. Hindwing 

 also with the ocellus somewhat larger, and with the two upper and the minute anal 

 ocelli of the underside slightly visible. Underside as in the male. 



Expanse $ 1-^q to I^-q, ? I^-q inch. 



Dry-Season Brood (Plate 110, fig. 3c, J'). 



Male. Upperside dark brown. Forewing with a very small ill-defined black 

 ocellus. Eind'wing with a small subanal ocellus. Underside cinereous-white, the 

 Btrig« less-defined ; both wings with the fasciee less distinct. Ocellus on forewing 

 smaller than in wet-season brood. Ocelli on hindwing minute, but distinctly formed, 

 the two apical and the two anal being well separated from each other. 



Female. Upperside. Foreiving differs from the male in having a large and 

 distinct ocellus, as in the wet-season brood. Underside : both wings with the fascijB 

 more prominent, but not as much as in the wet season-brood ; ocelli as in the male. 



Expanse c? I^q, ? l^) inch. 



Habitat. — Nilgiris. 



Distribution. — " The wet-season brood occurs at 2000 to 4000 feet, and 

 commonly at about 3000 feet, on the southern slopes of the Nilgiris, in August, and 

 the dry-season brood in December and January." {Hampson, I.e. p. 349.) Capt. 

 E. Y. Watson also obtained it at Coonoor in the Nilgiris during August.

 Habitat. Java. — T. Philomela (Pap. Philomela, Johansson, Amaen. Acad. 1764,

 smaller than T. Baldus. Forewing shorter and less triangular, the exterior margin 

 more erect. Male. Upperside brown, the discal patch less prominent ; ocelli 

 similar, but smaller and more narrowly ringed. Underside with uniformly disposed 

 6triga3, the transverse fasciae either obsolete or but very faintly defined ; ocelli on
