$ Brick-red, in hind-iving spotted and hordered with black; apical 
area of fore-wing transparent^ colourless, hordered tvith blackish and 
crossed by black-clouded nervules. Fore-wing : red area semi-transparent, 
filling discoidal cell, and occupying all space below cell to inner mar- 
ginal edge as far as posterior angle ; a rather narrow blackish costal 
border, becoming very much broader at apex ; hind-marginal border 
below upper radial nervule not much wider than costal border, inwardly 
somewhat excavated between nervules, and diminishing to a point 
at posterior angle ; at base a short black longitudinal mark between 
median and submedian nervures, and a longer black streak along inner 
margin to before middle ; an ill-defined narrow terminal disco-cellular 
black mark. Hind-ioing : hind-marginal black border of moderate 
width, emitting inwardly short acute sublinear nervular dentations and 
very short internervular ones ; black spots of moderate size, distinct, 
rounded, viz., one in cell near base ; an irregular sub-basal curved 
series of four, of which the second is in cell ; two small ones obliquely 
placed at upper part of extremity of cell ; and an irregular median 
discal series, of which the superior ones (except that next costa) are 
very small and partly obsolete, but the three lower large and con- 
spicuous, and forming a straight row from below second median to 
internal nervule ; base with a rather wide blackish suffusion ; inner- 
marginal border pale -yellowish beyond middle. Under side. — 
Exceedingly glossy ; red in fore-wing extremely pale ; hind-wing pale didl- 
yellowish ivith a very faint reddish tinge. Foi^e-wing : costal, apical, 
and hind-marginal border thinly scaled with pale-yellow crossed by 
blackish-clouded nervules. Hind-iuing : hind-marginal border grey, 
rather closely scaled with pale-yellow, crossed by blackish nervules, 
and also by a series of short internervular black streaks not reaching 
hind-margin; spots more conspicuous than above, — three additional 
ones present, viz., two near base on costa and inner margin respectively, 
and a very small one on inner margin about middle. 
Abdomen above black, with a superior lateral series of six small 
white spots, and an inferior lateral white streak, — beneath yellowish- 
white. 
$ Red replaced by very pale yclloivish ; borders not so dark. Fore- 
wing : base widely suffused with fuscous, especially below cell, where 
suffusion reaches' to beyond middle ; submedian nervure and median 
nervure with its first nervule blackish-clouded. Hind-wing : spots 
larger, especially upper ones of discal series ; basal blackish suffusion
