 lobes forming the apex of the tegumen (seen from beneath) narrow and sub-truncate, 

 their apices in the vertical aspect triangular."

Imago. — ^lale. Upperside olive-browu. Foreiving with seven ochreous-white 

 spots, two in the cell near its end, one above the other and well separated, three 

 sub-apical dots, in an outwardly oblique curve, two discal spots near the bases of the 

 median interspaces, the lower the larger. Ilindwing without markings. Cilia 

 testaceous, its base brown, becoming whitish on the hiudwing l:)elow the apex. Under- 

 side brown, with a reddish tinge, the spots as on the upperside, with a spot in the 

 forewing on the sub-median vein in nearly a line with the discal pair, and on this 

 wing there is an outwardly curved sub-apical pale fascia. 



Female like the male, but on the upperside of the forewing there is an additional 

 small spot a little outwards, between the sub-apical spots and the spot in the second 

 median interspace, and a small spot on the middle of the sub-median vein, and on the 

 underside in place of this spot there is a large suffused whitish patch. 



Expanse of wings, $ 1^, $ l-j^ inches. 



Habitat. — Assam. 



The types, from Shillong, are in the B. M. They were both received from our native 

 collector in one envelope, no doubt taken with one sweep of the net, and to make one 

 of them, the female of moolata, a species that does not occur in Assam, and the other a 

 male of austeni, as Elwes and Edwards have done, is undoubtedly wrong, they both have 

 on the underside of the forewing the same kind of sub-apical pale fascia, and to suppose 

 that an accident could produce on each of them exactly the same result is not possible.
