 which it is suddenly bent downwards, passing close by the end of the cell but not 

 touching it, its inner border distinct, its outer diffused. Hindwing with two pale 

 submarginal lines, the ocelli showing through the wing, especially the white pupil of 

 the fifth. Underside uniform light fuscous-brown with a slight bronzy lustre. 

 Foretving . Base unmarked except by a very obscure darker line across the cell, the 

 white band as above, two straight pale submarginal lines, and five perfect subequal 

 ocelli ringed with pale violet, set in nearly a straight line between the lower median 

 and the lower subcostal branch. Hindwing with two irregular transverse darker
