234 LEPIDOPTEBA INBICA. 



Female. Upperside. Forew'mg dark olive-brown, darker tlian in the male, two 

 prominent, somewhat oval-shaped semi-hyaline, pale ochreous-white spots in the disc, 

 the upper one near the base of the second median interspace, the other inwards in the 

 next lower interspace, indications of the sub-costal streak, some oehreous-red colour 

 within the cell, and nearly the whole hinder marginal space below the spots from the 

 liase for three-fourths of the length of the wing with dark ochreous-red hairs. Hind- 

 wing with all the inner part of the wing covered with dark ochreous-red hairs, leaving 

 the costa broadly and the outer margin decreasingly dark blackish-brown : in this sex 

 the inner area in both wings is much brighter and very different in colour to that of 

 the male, being distinctly ochreous-red, not orange-oehreous. Cilia of both wings as in 

 the male. Underside coloured like the male, the discal spots of the forewing as large 

 as on the upperside.
