Imago. — Male. Upperside somewhat pale olivescent umber-brown ; cilia 

 alternated with whitish-cinereous. Foreioing with two superposed more or less- 

 defined subapical black confluent ocelloid spots, one on either side of the upper 

 median veinlet, the lower spot large and rounded, the upper narrow, both more or 

 less obscurely bordered by a pale ferruginous ring, which is generally apparent only 

 on their inner side, and each with a pure white pupil ; there is also a very diffused 

 and indistinctly-defined blackish patch before the apex and a similar patch internal 

 to it extending into the cell, these two indistinct patches being divided by a slightly 

 perceptible pale ferruginous bar. Hindwing with a series of submarginal more or 

 less defined ocelloid spots, varying in number and distinctness, as disposed on the 

 underside, the three posterior generally being mostly defined and with a white pupil 

 and obscure pale ferruginous outer ring, the upper spots usually being obsolescent. 

 Underside pale ochreous or purpurescent-cinereous, uniformly covered with 

 numerous dark brown strigae, the forewing generally showing a more or less slightly 

 defined transverse subbasal, medial, and a discal narrow brown fascia, which are 

 formed by confluent strigte, and the hindwing generally showing a slight subbasal 

 and more or less distinct medial similar fascia. Forewing generally with a series 

 of five submarginal black ocelli, the two upper small, the fourth lai'ger and most 

 prominent, but further removed from the outer margin, the fifth also small, each 

 pupilled with bluish- white, ringed with pale ochreous and by an outer slender brown 

 ring ; sometimes the upper ocellus, the third and the lowest are minute or obsolete. 

 Hmdiving with a submarginal series of six prominent black ocelli, the upper one and 

 the sixth being the largest, the others decreasing from the second, the sixth also 

 small, each bluish-white pupilled (the anal one being sometimes bipupilled), ringed 

 with pale ochreous and by an outer brown ring. 



Female. Upperside as in the male; the ocelloid black spots larger, more 

 defined, and with larger white pupils, a small ocelloid spot also sometimes being 

 present on the forewing between the middle and lower medians. Underside also as 

 in the male, with the ocelli larger and more prominent. Body beneath, legs, and 

 palpi pale ochreous-cinereous ; antennae pale brown, club dusky with a reddish 

 tip.
