This is a true Halpe, which bears much resemblance on the upperside to H. Iwnorei, 

 de Nicev. The hind wing below is chrome-yellow, with the termen narrowly and 

 suffusedly pale brown, and with several small irregular pale brown spots placed as 

 follows :■ — two beyond the middle of cell 1 b divided by the intraneural fold, two in 

 cell 2 at equal distances from the base and apex of that cell and from each other, 

 one near the basal third of cell 3, one near the middle of cells 4-5, one across the 

 basal fourth of cell 6, and two in cell 7 at equal distances from the base and apex 

 of that cell and from each other. These particulars are taken from a male specimen 

 ex coll. Rothschild.
