Male. Wings above fuliginous-brown, with a narrow, obscure, paler fascia crossing both wings 

 beyond colls, but nearer the apex of cell of posterior tban that of anterior winga. Wings beneath fuliginous- 

 brown, crossed by a narrow pale white fascia, commencing near costa between upper apical angle of cell 

 and aprx of anterior wings where it is narrowest, and terminating a little before anal angle of posterior 

 wings. Anterior wings with two large siibmarginal ocellated spots, black with white centres, margined 

 respectively with ocliraceous and fuscous, with an extreme outer border of pearly grey, the first and smallest 

 of which is situate on the discoidal nervules, and the lower and largest on the second and third median 

 nervules* Posterior win^s with three sttbnmrginal ocellated spots of the form and colour of those of anterior 

 wings, the first ami smallest of which is placed between the subcostal nervules, contiguous to the second 

 and much larger spot, and both enclosed by one outer pearly grey margin (in some specimens each has a 

 separate pearly outer margin) ; third and largest spot on second and third median nervules ; Imth \un^s 

 possessing two narrow pale waved marginal lines, those of the posterior wings muck more distinct. Body 

 and legs concolorous with wings,

A oiale specimen is here figured. As with other species of the genus, considerable variation 

 ensues in the size of the ocellated spots on the under surface of the wings.

* I have an undoubted specimen of this species labelled "Ceylon," which is my reason for giving ihnt babitut. 

 Mr. Moore. however, has not included it in his ' Lrpidnptera of Ceylon,' but only an allied species, I have thenar*- Mi 

 a little drrabt ae to whether I really posset a Ceylon specimen.
