pale, somewliat ochreous edges. Forewing with a aub-basal spot in the cell, a larger 

 OA^al spot in the middle, and a still larger somewhat square spot at the end, two smaller 

 spots above the cell, one over the end spot and the other inwards, an outwardly oblique 

 spot below the discoidal spot, and another also outwardly oblique spot in the next lower 

 interspace below the middle cell spot, well separated from each other, a discal series of 

 six conjoined spots, the first small, the second and third outwardly oblique, the fourth 

 outwards, the fifth and sixth from the inner side of the fourth, also slightly outwardly 

 oblique, a small disconnected spot below the sixth ; the outer half of the hinder 

 marginal space paler than the rest of the wing. Hindwing with four sub-basal spots, 

 the fourth a little inwards, followed by three larger spots in a line, the third somewhat 

 bottle-shaped, a curved bar at the end of the cell, with a small spot attached below it, 

 touching also the bottle-shaped spot, a discal series of eight spots in an almost even 

 ciu've, the second slightly disconnected from the third, the fifth inwards, the seventh in 

 a curve a little inside the sixth ; marginal line of both wings brown, with a pale inner 

 line, a sub-marginal series of lunular marks, large on the hindwing, and between them a 

 series of small lunular marks. 



Female. Upperside pale lilac-purple, darker than the male and of a very different 

 and peculiar colour. Forewing with a costal black band commencing narrowly at the 

 base and broadening rapidly from the middle to the apex, where it is very broad and 

 running narrowly down the outer margin. Hindwing with the costal space broadly 

 blackish, the outer margin with a narrow, even black band. Underside as in the 

 male, but the spots darker and more pronounced.
