Pale red, often with a purplish tinge, and with dark striz ; frons 
chestnut. Fore wing with an oblique antemedial line; a small 
annulus at end of cell; an oblique postmedial line highly angled 
below apex, where it encloses a greyish lunule, running to middle 
of inner margin of hind wing but obsolete on costal area of hind 
wing, which is paler; the area between the lines of fore wing often 
paler towards costa. Underside rufous or orange-yellow, often 
with the outer area of fore wing rufous. 
A. Khasi variety has the lines of fore wing dark at costa and a 
large submarginal black blotch on inner area; the form tenctarra 
from Shillong is dark greyish purple, with the costal area of hind 
wing reddish orange and the underside redder. The Nilgiri and 
Ceylon forms sulphurescens and galbulata are greenish, especially 
between the lines of fore wing, which in the latter approach each 
other towards inner margin; flavifusata has the medial and outer 
areas of fore wing yellow except at outer angle.
