   series 
  consisting 
  of 
  8 
  black 
  spots 
  slightly 
  tinged 
  with 
  purplish 
  

   ferruginous 
  ; 
  from

  median

  purplish

   spots,

  externally 
  (the 
  

   2nd 
  also 
  internally) 
  by 
  elongated 
  shining 
  white 
  marks 
  ; 
  the 
  last- 
  

   named 
  mark 
  forms 
  the 
  commencement 
  of 
  a 
  regular 
  hind-marginal 
  

   series 
  of 
  7 
  >-shaped 
  liturae, 
  like 
  those 
  in 
  apical 
  portion 
  of 
  fore 
  

   wing, 
  but 
  longer, 
  more 
  acvite, 
  and 
  bounded 
  internally 
  not 
  by 
  

   separate 
  black 
  spots, 
  but 
  by 
  a 
  continuous 
  fuscous 
  streak 
  (diffuse 
  

   inwardly) 
  throughout 
  ; 
  cilia 
  as 
  in 
  fore 
  wing, 
  but 
  the 
  dark 
  portion 
  

   mixed 
  with 
  ochreous 
  yellow 
  ; 
  a 
  hind-marginal 
  series 
  of 
  black 
  spots 
  

   (rather 
  larger 
  and 
  more 
  diffuse 
  than 
  in 
  fore 
  wing), 
  and 
  a 
  thin, 
  

   black 
  pre-ciliary 
  line.

  Larger, 
  paler,

  wing 
  : 
  Lower 
  portion 
  of 
  basal 
  area, 
  

   before 
  discal 
  spots 
  obscurer 
  ; 
  apical 
  portion 
  of 
  hind-marginal 
  

   border

  This 
  very 
  distinct 
  species 
  is 
  not 
  nearly 
  related 
  to 
  any 
  

   South 
  African 
  congener. 
  The 
  upper 
  side 
  much 
  resembles-, 
  

   that 
  of 
  Chrysophanus 
  Orus 
  (Cram.), 
  and 
  also 
  that 
  of 
  

   Zeritis 
  Zohra, 
  Donzel,* 
  from 
  North 
  Africa 
  ; 
  as 
  regards 
  

   the 
  South 
  African 
  species 
  of 
  Zeritis, 
  this 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  

   wings
