in the disk, but having along the margin of the anterior as well as 

 the posterior wings, a series of black points or dots, as described in 

 the Fabrician specific character. Those dots are nearly equidistant, 

 a single dot appearing at the tip of each of the ribs where they 

 terminate at the margin. The lower surface is more diversified, being 

 pretty closely irrorated or sprinkled with dots of reddish, and two 

 interrupted bands on the posterior pair. There is also a larger and 

 a smaller contiguous silvery dot in the disk of each wing : the larger 

 one on the anterior wing surrounded by a sanguineous circle or iris, 

 the smaller and also two on the two upon the posterior wing environed 

 with black. The same marginal series of black points which appear 

 on the upper surface are also alike conspicuous beneath.
