Imago. — Male. Upperside rich deep olivescent ochreous-brown, with two sub- 

 marginal blackish lunular lines ; cilia ochreous-yellow, brightest on the hindwing. 

 Forewing with the apical half more dusky-brown ; an oblique sinuous-bordered bright 

 ochreous-yellow broad band crossing from middle of the costa to posterior angle, 

 this band being indented at end of the cell ; beyond is an incurved subapical series 

 of four white spots, of which the upper second is the largest, the third being minute 

 and centring the large slightly-apparent blackish spot of the underside. Hindwing 

 with a prominent narrow ochreous-yellow fascia bordering the apex, and some yellow 

 scales externally bordering the outer submarginal line. Underside dark olivescent 

 ochreous-brown; the two submarginal black sinuotis lines being very prominent, 

 and the inner line more or less bordered inwardly "with lilacine-blue scales. Fore- 

 wing with the ochreous-yellow oblique band as on upperside ; the apical white spots, 

 and a large blue-black subapical ocellus with yellow outer ring, all very prominent. 

 Eindiving with yellow apical border as above ; a prominent large blue-black sub- 

 apical ocellus, and four lower much smaller and less defined ocelli with blue-speckled 

 centres, of which the three upper anteriorly decrease to a minute spot, and the lower 

 or subanal ocellus only being ringed with yellow ; with a subbasal and a discal
