$ Broiunish-blacky with a pah sulphur-ydloio tra^isvcrsc stripic 
(macular in fore-wing) ; hind-wing only with a suhmarginal series of 
spots of the same colour, and loith a rather hroad, slightly spatidate, lon- 
spotted black tail. Fore-wing : costa narrowly and finely irrorated with- 
sulpliur-yellow as far as extremity of discoidal cell, where the irrora- 
tions become so dense as to form a more or less distinct longitudinal 
streak ; this streak, with a more conspicuous one immediately below 
itj forming the beginning of the macular transverse stripe of eight spots, 
gradually increasing in width to its termination a little beyond inner 
margin ; this band is rather abruptly angulated on upper radial ner- 
vule, where its second spot closely approximates, or (usually) is con- 
fluent w^ith the last of a short series of three smaller spots of the same 
colour (in line with the six other spots of discal stripe) from costa 
not far before apex ; in cell, at lower edge of extremity, sometimes a 
small, ill-defined sulphur-yellow spot ; on hind-marginal edge, below 
apical projection, a series of six inter-nervular lunular marks, gradu- 
ally increasing in size downward. Hind-iving : transverse stripe before 
middle continuous (nearly straight along its inner edge, but out- 
wardly irregular, and sharply denticulated with black on the crossing 
nervures), and extending to submedian nervure, along which it runs 
a narrow termination to beyond middle; adjoining middle part of 
stripe, but separated from it by a black bar at extremity of discoidal 
cellj a curved row of three pale sulphur-yellow spots, of which the 
uppermost is largest ; a small sub-lunular orange spot a little before 
anal angle, sometimes touching extremity of transverse stripe ; sub- 
marginal spots arranged in six inter-nervular pairs, the upper spot 
in each pair the larger, and the spots of the fourth (and usually also 
of the fifth) pair confluent ; a series of thin, sulphur-yellow, inter- 
nervular, lunulate marks alons^ hind-marojinal edtre. Under side. — 
General pattern like that of upper side ; hind-vjing and apical area of 
fore-wing choeolate-hroivn, clouded, luith pcdc oehreous-hroiv7i (which latter 
has in p)arts a faint molaceous lustre). Fore-wing : upper spots of 
discal stripe and those of row from near apex represented by ill-defined 
yellowish-white marks ; cellular spot larger and more distinct, and 
succeeded by a very small spot immediately beyond cell ; other spots 
of discal stripe as on upper side, but much more acuminate externally. 
Hind-iving : basal area unclouded by paler brown, but discal hind- 
marginal area with two wide clouds, one apical, the other on median 
nervules ; transverse stripe almost iuIlUc, much narrower than above, and 
about its middle greatly attenuated; the adjacent spots, just beyond 
cell, smaller, almost whita ; submarginal series of spots obsolete, or
