Blackish brown, whitish beneath. Antenna? with white rings. 

 Fore wings brown, sprinkled with whitish atoms ; two large irregular 

 dark brown spots in each disk, the larger one nearer the base, a 

 whitish mark between it and the smaller one which has another 

 whitish mark beyond it; a macular dark brown band along the 

 apical border ; under side orange with dark brown spots nearly cor- 

 responding to those above, the white marks more clear. Hind wings

 the first band in the disk, curved, irregular ; the second marginal and
