This close ally of D. Diodes, Hewits., may at once be recognised by the red 
sub-basal ocelli on the under side of the hind-wings, and, as regards the $ , 
by the uniform dark-brown of the fore-wing. In the latter sex of Dariaves 
the forehead and tip of abdomen are red, but the former is of a duller 
tint. The female, to judge from Hewitson's figure and description, is darker 
than that of Diodes, and without any violaceous-blue gloss, while possessing 
a whitish band in the hind- wings not represented in Diodes. On the under 
side the hind-wings, except near base, are much whiter than the fore-wings 
(owing to the enlargement of the white edges of the principal markings), — a 
character which also distinguishes the species from Diodes. 
D. Dariaves was discovered at Delagoa Bay by the late Mr. J. J. Mon- 
teiro, and I have received a specimen of the ^ taken by Mrs. Monteiro in 
the same locality.

^ Orange-red ; fore-iuing loith a rather narroio fuscous-hroivn horder. 
Fore-wing : base of inner margin suffused with fuscous-brown ; border 
comniencing rather widely at base, narrower about middle, wide at 
apex, and thence gradually narrowing along hind-margin to posterior 
angle ; inner-marginal sexual tuft reddish-brown. Hind-wing : a nar- 
row blackish-brown suffusion at base ; sexual badge small, shining 
leaden- grey ; inner margin with a dull-greyish border, set with whitish 
hairs ; orange-red extends to hind-margin itself, except close to anal 
angle, where there is a fine linear black edging ; tail black, white- 
tipped ; a small hind-marginal black spot immediately below tail ; a 
larger black spot, sprinkled with greenish-silvery scales, on anal-angular 
lobe. Under side. — Broionish-grey (except inner-marginal area of 
fore-wing, which is whitish tinged superiorly with ochre-yellow) ; in 
loth wings, terminal disco-celhdar mark and irregular discal hand out- 
lined with dark-red, and with faint white outer edges, — submarginal 
lunulate streak dark-grey and white, indistinct. Hind-wing : a sub- 
basal row of three round dark-red white-ringed spots ; a linear black 
edging, immediately preceded by a white line, along inferior half of 
hind-margin ; upper hind-marginal black spot bounded interiorly by 
an orange-yellow lunule ; anal-angular one inferiorly edged with orange- 
yellow ; between the two spots some fuscous and greenish-silvery scales. 
Cilia on upper side fuscous in fore-wing, red in hind-wing ; on under 
side reddish generally, but mixed with white near anal angle of hind- 
wing.
