<5 $ . Upperside rich dark brown. Fore wing : cell and base of 

 interspace 1 golden brown ; cell crossed by four short velvety- 

 black lines, a medial and an apical red bar, basal area of inter- 

 space 1 with transverse black lines in form of a figure of 8 

 enclosing red spots ; a broad oblique white discal band traversed 

 by the dark veins, and anteriorly broken into three elongate 

 spots with a slender subcostal streak above them, followed by a 

 double row of somewhat lunular black postdiscal spots divided by 

 a ferruginous-red narrow band ; an inner and an outer sub- 

 terminal pale line ; two small white subcostal spots near apex 

 bordering the inner postdiscal row of black lunules. Hind wing : 

 basal area with some transverse black lines, the spaces between 

 them touched with ferruginous, a broad white continuous discal 

 band, postdiscal rows of cone-shaped black spots divided by a 

 ferruginous-red narrow band ; pale subterminal and terminal lines 

 as on the fore wing. Underside similar, with similar markings, 

 but slightly broader ; basal area and cell of fore wing greyish

<$ 2 ' Upperside dull black ; base of wings irrorated with 

 greyish, sometimes ochraceous, scales ; cell of fore wing with a 

 white preapical, sinuous, short transverse band, sometimes an 

 inner spot of white, and one or even two white spots in the 

 interspace below. Fore and hind wings with a broad white discal 

 band, continuous on the hind wing, traversed only by the dark 

 veins, macular on the fore wing ; the posterior spots very 

 irregular in size and well separated anteriorly on the fore wing ; 

 this band curves inwards to the costa beyond apex of cell, and 

 is followed by three white subcostal spots in transverse order ; 

 a postdiscal row of black spots outwardly margined with white 

 and an obscure pale subterminal line with an anteciliary very 

 slender black line ; cilia white, alternated with black. Underside 

 bright ochraceous yellow ; base of fore wing much paler, the 

 white preapical band in cell and the broad white discal band 

 across both fore and hind wing as on the upperside, but the 

 spots composing it on the fore wing larger, closer together, lined 

 inwardly and outwardly with fuscous black ; the three preapical 

 white spots as on the upperside, but less prominent ; postdiscal
