$ 2 • Upperside : ground-colour and ocelli as in E. scanda, 

 but the latter ringed with deep brownish orange, not pale fulvous ; 

 both fore and hind wing with an obscure subterminal dark brown 

 band. Underside : fore wing — a shade of deep ochraceous red- 

 brown, the dorsal margin broadly brown, the apex and the ter- 

 minal margin just below it irrorated with some greyish scales ; the 

 ocellus and subterminal band as on the upperside, the latter joining 

 an oblique postdiscal dark band below the ocellus. Hind wing 

 dark umber-brown, thickly irrorated with greyish scales and 

 transverse umber-brown striae, the irro ration getting denser 

 towards the costa ; two subtornal fulvous-ringed blind ocelli ; 

 postdiscal and subterminal more or less incomplete umber-brown 

 sinuous transverse bands. Antennae, head, thorax and abdomen 

 brown. 



Exp. 6 2 62-70 mm. (2-45-2-75"). 



Hab. The Himalayas, Kashmir to Bhutan. 



Race orixa, Moore, differs only in the brownish-orange ring 

 surrounding the ocelli on both upper and under sides being very 

 much broader, especially on the fore wing ; the ocelli on the hind 

 wing are on the underside less distinct as a rule. The sub- 

 terminal band on the upperside and the postdiscal and sub- 

 terminal bands on the underside of the fore wing are entirely 

 wanting in the majority of the specimens I have examined. 



Exp. c? 2 56-72 mm. (2-23-2-85"). 



Hab. Assam, the Khasi Hills ; Manipur. 



Race hybrida, Butler, is more distinct, the fore wing being 

 narrower and much more rounded at apex. Upperside : ground- 

 colour slightly paler brown, the ocelli ringed with yellow. Under- 

 side also paler, the irrorations on the hind wing yellowish not 

 grey, and the postdiscal and subterminal sinuous bands more 

 complete. 



Exp. <S 2 62-64 mm. (2-45-2-53"). 



Hab. The Western Himalayas to Mussoorie and Kumaun.
