NYMPHALINiE. 
3^3 
marking, dusted with creamy scales, occupying outer fifth of cell, 
extending some distance beyond and a little below it, and enclosing a 
narrow stria of the ground-colour at the extremity of cell ; costa with 
a linear edging, apex and hind-margin with a narrow border of dark- 
brown ; just before the latter two parallel brownish-fuscous lunulated 
streaks, — the lunules composing the inner streak thinner and acuter 
than those of the outer one (except the three next inner margin, which 
are thick and somewhat suffused), while in the outer streak, the two 
middle lunules are conspicuously larger and thicker than the rest; 
nervules fuscous near hind-margin. Hincl-iuing : a basal fuscous-grey 
suffusion, darkest in discoidal cell, and extending narrowly along sub- 
median nervure almost to anal angle; subcostal and median nervures 
and parts of their nervules fuscous ; two lunulate streaks as in fore- 
wing, but rather more regular, and the outer one more distinctly 
separate from hind-marginal border ; this border is like that of fore- 
wing, but varied by a row of seven orange-ochreous spots ^ at ends of 
nervules, the sixth being largest and sometimes confluent with the 
seventh (at anal angle). Cilia fuscous, with white inter-nervular dots. 
Under side. — Dull loale-oclireous, slightly tinged with ferruginous ; varied 
in basal half by linear fuscous stride, edging short fascite somewhat 
darker than ground-colour (which represent the upper-side markings) ; 
an indistinct linear reddish-hroion discal streak from costa of fore-ioing 
to anal angle of hind-iuing. Fore-vnng : a small imperfect ring enclos- 
ing a darker space immediately below median nervure ; lunulate sub- 
marginal streaks very faintly indicated by greyish marks. Hind-wing : 
in cell a linear 8 -like mark ; a double linear streak closing cell ; traces 
of a highly irregular transverse linear streak just about middle ; 
lunulate streaks rather better indicated than in fore-wing ; hind- 
marginal orange-ochreous spots duller, less distinct than on upper side. 
J Fuscous^ with a transverse discal creamy-white hand. Fore-wing : 
a conspicuous, externally angulated, short, transverse, white stria near 
extremity of discoidal cell; a similar, but straighter and more macular 
stria, some distance beyond cell, from subcostal nervure to third median 
nervule ; transverse band beginning narrowly and indistinctly near 
costa not far from apex (where it is tinged with yellow-ochreous), but 
abruptly widening on third median nervule (where the outer white 
stria meets it), — its outer edge deeply scalloped between nervules ; 
just following band, a transverse row of six small white spots, one 
spot marking each inter-nervular excavation of the band ; beyond the 
white spots a series of very indistinct blackish ones, succeeded by traces 
of a streak paler than the ground-colour. Hind-ioing : transverse 
band much as in fore-wing, but wider, and though narrowed near costa 
quite distinct there ; outer edge of band not so deeply scalloped ; suc- 
ceeding series of white spots, blackish spots, and pale lunulate streak 
as in fore-wing, but the two latter more distinct ; orange-ochreous 
^ One specimen has minute similar spots on hind-margin of the fore-wing.
