$ Black; hind-iving mostly shining violaceous-hlue ; fore-wing with 
suhapical creamy -ivliitish oblique bar. Fore-iuing : costa edged with 
creamy-white, which is widest and suffused about middle ; in discoidal 
cell two transverse fulvous stride, of which the outer (marking extremity 
of cell) is the better marked ; between them a blue stria ; immediately 
beyond cell occasionally traces of another blue stria ; subapical whitish 
bar narrow near costa, strongly indented by ground-colour just below 
second radial, divided into four by crossing nervures, — its two lower 
and much broader divisions vertically intersected by a more or less 
suffused black streak ; near apex a short creamy-whitish narrow costal 
bar; between this and the lower part of the subapical oblique bar, a 
small blue-centred black ocellus in a fulvous ring; a similar, usually 
rather larger, ocellus (commonly suffused with fuscous) adjoins lower 
extremity of the oblique bar ; between the latter ocellus and inner 
margin, close to posterior angle, a subquadrate violaceous-blue patch ; 
just before hind-margin two parallel creamy- whitish streaks (of which 
the outer is very thin and sometimes nearly obsolete), broken into spots 
by the clouded-blackish nervures, and shot with blue at and a little 
above posterior angle. Hind-wing : blue occupies entire discal portion, 
infringing a little the outer part of discoidal cell, whose extremity 
is usually marked by a strong black streak ; inner-marginal border 
fuscous ; two ocelli like those of fore-wing on disc, one between second 
subcostal and radial nervules, the other between first and second median 
nervules ; of these, the upper ocellus is often minute and without the 
fulvous ring ; the two hind-marginal whitish strias less broken than in 
fore-wing and preceded by a fuscous one, but much suffused by the 
discal blue. Under side. — Dull cream-colour. Fore-ioing : basal por- 
tion ochre-yellow, which does not reach, however, either costa or inner 
margin ; blue cellular striae, represented by whitish ones, black-edged 
on both sides ; oblique bar rather paler than ground-colour, strongly 
black-bordered anteriorly ; ocelli ill-defined, their wings much paler, the 
lower one larger than on upper side ; a fuscous space below the latter. 
Hind-iving : two thin, inconspicuous, crenulated, fuscous, transverse 
streaks from costa to inner margin, one before, the other a little beyond 
middle ; of these, the outer is externally bordered by an ill-defined 
argillaceous fascia ; in discoidal cell two slightly-paler transverse strife, 
thinly fuscous-edged ; ocelli usually very faintly indicated with fuscous, 
but between them traces of two other faint ones, and above the second 
subcostal the indication of a fifth ; a fuscous mark at anal angle. In
