I of $• Fore-wing : disco-cellular streak and all the spots (except the 
largest discal one) pure white, larger than on upper side, their edges 
j being diffused ; costa narrowly edged with ochreous-brbwn. Hind- 
' wing: inner edge of pale ochreous-yellow-band ill-defined, the basal 
dark-brown or ochreous-brown being diffused, — outer edge rather 
i| nearer middle, so that the band is narrower than on upper side; three 
streaks in cell as in ^ ; inter-nervular streaks usually rather faintly 
; marked ; greyish mark between second subcostal and radial nervules 
! (which in $ answers to ordinary wider break in band of upper side) 
1 almost always present (and in the white-spotted examples often con- 
\ spicuous), but very faint in two specimens, and wanting in two others ; 
suhmarginal spots rather larger than on upper side, all white, and 
besides the full number of six pairs (which seems not to vary) there is 
a smaller seventh pair close to anal angle. 
Coloration and markings of head and body like those of $, except 
that the thorax beneath, instead of being uniformly clothed with 
ochreous-yellow, is black, varied with eight large whitish spots on each 
side, interspersed with a few orange-ochreous markings ; and that the 
abdomen is on the sides of a deeper and duller ochreous-yellow. 
$ Second Form (near Hippocoon^ Fab.).-^ Sooty-Uach, with all the 
markings p)ure-white, and the chief ones in hath ivings greatly enlarged. 
Fore-wing : disco-cellular oblique streak and subapical spot as in 
ordinary ^, — the spot sometimes wanting ; instead of the small widely- 
separated second and third spots of discal row, a broad oblique con- 
tinuous subapical bar, with which superiorly the first spot of discal 
row is sometimes incorporated ; instead of the isolated fourth spot a 
broad patch occupying nearly all inner margin, not entering discoidal 
cell, but rounded superiorly and rising as far as second median nervule. 
Hind-wing : band so much widened as to constitute a very large central 
patch occupying all the area except some very narrow basal black and 
a broad hind-marginal black border ; externally the white patch is 
deeply pierced by black nervules and also (less conspicuously) by 
inter-nervular blackish rays ; the remainder of the inter-nervular rays 
so marked on the under side indistinctly visible. Under side. — Bor- 
ders of wings sometimes of the same ochreous-hrown as in ordinary 
hut usually paler, and always narroiver oiving to the hroad ivhite mark- 
ings. Hind-wing : basal brown always very much narrower, and often 
almost obsolete, — the white extending almost to base itself; exter- 
nally the white does not extend quite so far as on upper side, except 
between second subcostal and radial nervules, where it is prolonged 
into the scarcely distinguishable very pale-greyish mark ; neuration 
beyond middle black or blackish ; inter-nervular rays and streaks vary- 
ing from ochreous-brown to black. 
Coloration and markings of head and body as in ordinary except 
that the abdomen has the sides much paler and is almost white beneath.
