to lower median, then forming a semicircular curve till 1 b, then erect to inner 
margin ; beyond this curved part, well below lower median and well above 1 b, 
the antemedial area remains pure white, except for a few cinnamon-orange 
scales here and there; remainder of antemedial area irrorated with black and 
here and there at costal and inner marginal area with some orange-cinnamon 
scales, especially at 1 b ; antemedial line indistinct, pinkish-cinnamon (xxix) 
and preceded by patches of black and orange-cinnamon scales mixed, one 
below costa, two in cell, a small one just below lower median, and a large 
semilunar patch obliquely above 1 b ; the black scales are somewhat raised ; 
median line erect to lower median, then incurved between lower median and 
inner margin, white, preceded and followed by a rather darker black irroration ; 
beyond it in cell and below lower median, as far as postmedial line, some 
rather dense light buff (xv) scaling, covering in most part the black irroration; 
black and orange-cinnamon raised scales on discocellulars ; postmedial like 
medial line, erect, straight from costa to vein 4, forming a tooth outwardly 
below 4, then curved inwardly below vein 3, then to inner margin long before 
tornus; most of the terminal area beyond this line, from below costa to vein 
5 and narrowly below vein 5 as far as vein 3 the irroration is not black, but 
orange-cinnamon; some sub-terminal black scaling on veins 6, 7, 9, 10 ; a crescent 
mark of black scales on and between 4 and 5 and a few black scales on and 
between veins ib, 2, and just beyond the postmedial line; a dark terminal 
shading, caused by blacker irroration between the veins ; cilia white at base, 
then with black irroration, and terminally with bunches of large orange- 
cinnamon scales on the veins, mixed with carob-brown (xiv) and light buff 
scales between the veins. Hind wing pure white; some fuscous (xlvi) scaling 
011 discocellulars, along costa and from costa a medial scaling of same colour 
as far as stalk 6, 7 and indistinctly beyond it to inner margin; a terminal 
fuscous line interrupted on the veins and some fuscous hairs at tornus; cilia 
white. Under side: ground colour of fore wing white, densely irrorated with 
fuscous, except at inner marginal area; costal edging as on upper side; a dense 
fuscous irroration on lower discocellular and a similar terminal fuscous shading 
between the veins; cilia as above, but no orange-cinnamon scales; hind wing 
pure white; a fuscous mark on upper frd of discocellulars; medial line very 
indistinct; terminal line only from veins 4 to 8, gradually becoming indistinct; 
cilia white with a few fuscous scales around the apex. 
Like (J, but fore wing a little lighter in colour; area between postmedial 
and sub-terminal from costa to vein 3 paler yellow-orange (iii), less densely 
irrorated with orange-cinnamon ; hind wing with nearly the whole area thinly 
irrorated with fuscous. Under side as in g, except for some white triangular 
patches between the veins and before the terminal shading from apex to 
vein 3.
