112 LEPIDOPTERA INDICA. 



baud gradually attenuating and ending at the upper subcostal veinlet, its inner 

 edge sinuous and sometimes anteriorly dotted with black ; followed by a marginal 

 more or less interrupted fine line. Underside pale fulvous or yellowish-ochreous, 

 marked with dark ferruginous short streaks and spots almost throughout, those 

 across the disc of both wings assuming the form of a somewhat conspicuous darker 

 band, which band, on the forewing, has a pale violet streak bordering its lower 

 inner end. Forexving also with the outer-discal markings forming two submarginal 

 continuous ill-defined sinuous lines, between which is a series of small indistinctly- 

 defined ocellate spots, the one between the upper and middle median being the most 

 distinct and with a violet-spsckled centre. Hindiving also with the outer-discal 

 markings forming two submarginal continuous ill-defined sinuous lines, between 

 which is a row of very indistinctly-formed conical spots, those from the discoidal 

 veinlet to the anal angle being broadest and with their shape obliterated by 

 numerous bluish-violet speckles, some of these speckles being also scattered above 

 the abdominal angle ; outside these spots is a marginal lunular line, the lunule 

 above the caudal angle being speckled with bluish-metallic scales. Thorax above 

 olivescent-brown, abdomen black with a broad pale fulvous band ; frontal tuft 

 fulvous ; palpi above blackish ; body and palpi beneath, and legs, pale yellowish- 

 ochreous ; antenna black, annulated with pale ochreous beneath, tip fulvous. 



Female. Upperside with all the bands as in male, but slightly broader and 

 paler. Underside with the ground-colour paler; all the markings as in male, but 

 clearer and better defined. Bodn as in male,

Male. Upperside. Both wings with all the bands much broader and some- 

 what paler than in wet-season form. Forewing with the discoidal band coalescing 

 at its upper and lower end with subapical and discal band, the two latter bands also 

 partially coalesced, and the subapical band also with the apical streak ; the lower 

 outer angle of the discal band extending to the posterior angle. Eindwing with the 

 discal and submarginal band coalesced on the abdominal border ; some transverse 

 short slender streaks also extending from the former to the latter between their 

 upper end ; marginal interrupted line distinct. Underside paler and with all the 

 markings less defined thaii in wet-season form. 



Female. Upperside with all the bands broad and coalescent, as in male, but 

 with paler central areas. Underside with the ground-colour pale and the markings 

 less defined, as in male.
