Exp. al., 7-9 lin. 
Greyish-fuscous, with numerous suhannular and other white spots 
arranged in correspondence luith those of the under side ; hind-iuing 
tailless. Fore-%ving : terminal disco-cellular annulet, and discal infe- 
riorly much incurved band of annulets, enclose spots somewhat darker 
than the ground-colour ; near base two similar annulets, the upper one 
in discoidal cell, the lower immediately below cell ; a row of six minute 
white spots near and parallel to hind-margin ; cilia broad, fuscous, 
narrowly but very distinctly interrupted with white between nervules,- — 
the white interruptions close to apex and to posterior angle wider than 
the rest. Hind-iuing : terminal disco-cellular annulet and discal band 
of annulets not so fully developed as in fore-wing, but distinct ; an 
indistinct annulet near base below cell ; submarginal row of minute 
white spots as in fore-wing, but the first spot (nearest costa) consider- 
ably larger than the others ; cilia broad, white, with only imperfect 
fuscous interruptions along the inner edge at ends of nervules. Under 
SIDE. — Pale hroivnish-grey ; the white annidets enclosing fuscous spots. 
Fore-wing : the markings very distinct ; discal row begins about middle 
with two small costal annulets ; submarginal row of minute white spots 
black-edged both internally and externally ; fuscous of cilia paler than 
on upper side. Rind-wing : an annulet at base ; a sub-basal trans- 
verse row of four annulets, of which the first (on costa) encloses 
a darker spot than the rest ; terminal disco-cellular annulet rather 
blurred ; first and second annulets of discal band separate from the 
succeeding ones, and nearer base ; submarginal row of minute white 
spots rather indistinct, but their inner black edges well marked, sub- 
sagittate ; the first and second of these spots (like the corresponding 
annulets of the discal band) are out of line with and before the others. 
This very remarkable Lyccena belongs to the group of which L.
