a brown and a ferruginous ring, and then an outer pale ring ; marginal line pale 

 bordered. Hindiving witli a transverse discal dark brown line acutely angulated on 

 the median veinlets, followed by a series of six prominent ocelli, each with a black 

 centre and white pupil, an ochreous, then a dark brown, and an outer violaceous 

 ring. 



Female. " Upperside castaneous. Foreunng with rather more than the 

 outer half fuscous, crossed from the middle of the costa to near the anal angle 

 by a decreasing white band, which is tinged with ochreous anteriorly, its inner 

 edge very straight and sharply defined, its outer edge less regular and blurred ; 

 two small ochreous subapical spots divided by the fifth subcostal nervule. Hind- 

 iving with the outer half fuscous, bearing a submarginal series of four black 

 spots placed upon a castaneous band, the upper one large and round, the second 

 somewhat quadrate and extending to the inner of the two pale marginal fine 

 lines, the third and fourth small and oval ; there are faint traces also of a spot in 

 the discoidal and a geminated one in the submedian interspace. Underside pale 

 ochreous-brown. Foreunng with two ferruginous fine lines crossing the middle of 

 the cell, the discal band as above but somewhat lengthened posteriorly, the ground 

 colour within it somewhat darker than the rest of the wing ; a submarginal series 

 of four small perfect ocelli, made up of a white pupil, a black ring, a ring of the 

 ground colour, a ferruginous ring, and an outer pale ring ; two fine dark marginal 

 lines. Eindwing with two discal fine irregular ferruginous lines from the costa to the 

 submedian veinlet, the lower discocellular veinlet ferruginous ; a submarginal series 

 of six perfect ocelli, made up of a black white-pupilled centre, an ochreous ring, a 

 dark brown ring, and then an outer violaceous ring, the upper ocellus much the 

 largest, the second and fourth subequal, as are also the third and sixth, which 

 are the smallest, the latter twinned ; two fine dark marginal lines inwardly defined 

 by a pale violet line and enclosing a fine ochreous line. Cilia pale brown through- 

 out."

The male differs above from Sikkim specimens of L. Dinarbas in the decidedly 

 less obhquity of the pale-bordered discal line of the forewing, and " on the underside 

 of the forewing in the lilac band across the cell being much narrower, with uneven 

 instead of straight edges ; the discal obhque band lilac throughout, straight, and of 

 equal width throughout (in L. Dinarbas the upper portion of the band only is lilac, 

 this portion too in that species being wider) ; in having an additional ocellus in the 

 subcostal interspace (in L. Dinarbas there are always three ocelli only). On the 

 hindwing the discal bands are deep brown instead of ferruginous, and the lilac wash- 

 ings throughout much more brilliant. The female differs from the same sex of L,
