  Wings. 
  — 
  The 
  costal 
  vein 
  is 
  clothed 
  with 
  dark 
  brown 
  scales 
  interrupted 
  by 
  four 
  

   yellowish 
  spots. 
  The 
  wing 
  field 
  is 
  in 
  general 
  sparsely 
  clad 
  with 
  yellowish 
  scales. 
  

   Brown 
  spots 
  are 
  distributed 
  as 
  follows 
  : 
  on 
  the 
  auxiliary 
  or 
  subcostal 
  vein, 
  two 
  ; 
  

   on 
  the 
  first 
  vein, 
  four 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  stem 
  of 
  the 
  second 
  vein, 
  one 
  ; 
  on 
  its 
  anterior 
  branch, 
  

   one 
  ; 
  on 
  its 
  posterior 
  branch, 
  two 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  third 
  vein, 
  which 
  is 
  for 
  the 
  most 
  part 
  

   light-scaled, 
  three 
  small 
  dark 
  spots 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  stem 
  of 
  the 
  fourth 
  vein, 
  two 
  ; 
  on 
  its 
  

   anterior 
  branch, 
  two 
  ; 
  on 
  its 
  posterior 
  branch, 
  one 
  ; 
  on 
  the 
  fifth 
  vein 
  near 
  its 
  

   origin, 
  one 
  small 
  dark 
  spot, 
  the 
  rest 
  of 
  the 
  stem 
  light-scaled 
  ; 
  on 
  its 
  anterior 
  branch, 
  

   three 
  dark 
  spots 
  ; 
  on 
  its 
  posterior 
  branch, 
  one 
  or 
  two 
  dark 
  scales 
  near 
  the 
  fork 
  

   and 
  a 
  dark 
  spot 
  at 
  the 
  wing 
  margin 
  ; 
  and 
  on 
  the 
  sixth 
  vein, 
  three 
  dark 
  spots. 
  

   There 
  is 
  a 
  yellow 
  apical 
  fringe 
  spot 
  and 
  a 
  yellow 
  spot 
  on 
  the 
  wing 
  fringe 
  opposite 
  

   the 
  termination 
  of 
  each 
  long 
  vein. 
  

  

  I 
  have 
  here 
  described 
  the 
  appearance 
  of 
  the 
  upper 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  wing 
  in 
  the 
  

   female. 
  It 
  is 
  recognised 
  that 
  these 
  characters 
  do 
  not 
  possess 
  the 
  specific 
  value 
  

   formerly 
  assigned 
  to 
  them, 
  as 
  not 
  only 
  do 
  they 
  differ 
  on 
  the 
  two 
  surfaces 
  of 
  the 
  same 
  

   wing 
  but 
  also 
  on 
  the 
  same 
  wing 
  surface 
  in 
  the 
  male 
  and 
  female 
  of 
  certain 
  species.
