on the costa, is preceded and followed by a conspicuous white mark, below the outer of these 
marks is a white spot, and another white mark is placed at the edge of the fascia about the 
centre of the wing; seven submarginal blind ocelli with narrow fulvous irides are each 
followed by somewhat triangular chocolate-coloured spots ; outer margin broadly blackish. 
Expanse 62-66 miUim, 
Although I have had hundreds of this species, I have only seen one female, 
and this is of the form described below as 
Tar. albicans, var. nov. (Plate VII. fig. 7, d •) The spots on the primaries are larger and much 
paler in colour; there are some yellowish clouds in the discoidal cell, and the veins are yellow 
to the outer third of the wing ; on the secondaries the spots are larger and paler than in the 
type, but not quite so pale as those on primaries. Under surface of primaries pale yellowish, 
with the typical markings rather narrower : of secondaries grey, varied with black and white 
markings, the white markings wider and more conspicuous than in the type. 
Both the type and var. albicans occur at Chow-pin-sa and Ta-chien-lu in 
May and June, but I have received the type only from Pu-tsu-fong, and in 
Kwei-chow the variety appears to be the only form.

The following is Felder's description of the type : — 
" Alis supra fusccscentibus, anticis maculis tribus subocellatis nigris in fascia dilutiore aliisque 
duabus costalibus albidis, posticis maculis exterioribus scriatis nigris, bruunco cinctis ; subtus 
multo pallidioribus, figuris celhilaribus strigisque binis exterioribus fuscescentibus diffuse 
albido limbatis, anticis ocellis tribus interjectis (duabus inferioribus inter ramos mcdianos sat 
magnis), posticis ocellis octo (?) minutis, sed distinctis. 5 C^)-" {Pdder, I. c.) 
Var. segonax. " Upperside. Male, rufous brown ; anterior wing with a white spot near the 
apex, and below it is a black blind occJhis ; posterior wing with four oval black blind ocelli. 
" Underside rufous, clouded w^ith grey atid brown ; both wings crossed beyond the middle by a 
rufouri band borden^d on both sides, on its outer side with grey-white, both with a zigzag 
band near the outer margin, the outer margin and a parallel line dark brown : anterior wing 
with two rufous bands across the cell, enclosing a third band divided into four ; four oval 
ocelli, the second obscure : posterior wing with three round spots of yellow near the base, 
followed by a broken rufous band ; eight small ocelli, all black, with white pupils, the iris 
rufous. Exiianse 2^\^ inches." (Ifeivitson, I. c.) 
Var. felderi, var. nov. (Plato VIII. fig. 4, c?.) Male. Similar in colour to the type but tinged 
with golden ; tliere is a palo spot on costa of primaries near ajjcx, but there is no trace of any 
liliick spots on tlic wings ; the secondaries are also witliout black spots in tlu'ee specimens out of 
four, but in the fourtli there are two distinct black spots near anal angle. Under surface paler
