J Pale lilacine-Uue, with broad fuscous-grey margins ; hind-wmg 
with a shorty hlack, white-tipped tail on first inedian nervule ; cilia 
gj^eyish, inclining to tvhitish in paints. Fore-iving : grey border com- 
mences narrowly on costa beyond middle, becomes very broad apically, 
and gradually narrows along liind-margiu to posterior angle. Hind- 
wing : grey border broad costally and apically, bounded inferiorly by 
subcostal nervure and its second nervule ; below the latter it is hind- 
marginally very narrow, and below radial or third median nervule is 
represented by small separate spots, of which that between first and 
second median nervules is larger than the rest, and black ; imme- 
diately beyond these spots a thin white line, succeeded by a blackish 
one along hind-marginal edge ; immediately before spots a conspicuous, 
irregular, lunulated, bright-orange band, lying between third (or some- 
times second) median nervule and submedian nervure, — rarely reduced 
to two or three separate lunules adjoining largest spot and spots next 
anal angle. Under side. — Whitish-grey ^ the pattern and markings 
like those of Cissus, Godt., ivith the exceptions noted below. Fore-iving : 
no ocellus in discoidal cell ; terminal disco-cellular streak thinner, 
much more faint ; in discal row of spots the two between upper radial 
and third median nervules not so far beyond the rest, and the lower 
spots only a little larger than the others ; submarginal markings 
fainter (especially the white ones) and straighter. Hind-wing : in 
discal row all the spots well marked, and the sixth and eighth more 
displaced outwardly ; orange band usually not so much developed, but 
in some specimens much more so, extending brokenly to near apex ; 
largest hind-marginal black spot, and smaller one below it, outwardly 
edged with greenish-silvery.
