24 NYMPHALID^. 
Female. Similar to the male, but larger and a shade paler in colour. Fringes pale whitish 
brown. 
Under surface : colour same as on the upperside iu both sexes. Primaries : two ocelli near apex 
with white pupils and yellow irides well developed, and on the outer margin are a grejish- 
violet wavy line and one of pale brown, narrowly separated by the ground-colour. Secon- 
daries : a narrow transverse streak of greyish violet, edged internally with dark brown before 
tlie middle of the wing, and another of the same colour bordered externally with a darker 
shade of ground-colour beyond the middle of wing ; this, starting from the anterior margin 
in the direction of inner margin, is suddenly diverted towards the outer margin, but after 
reaching the second subcostal nervule it resumes its original course and terminates at the 
anal angle. Six very distinct whitc-pupilled ocelli ; of these 'No. 1 on the anterior margin 
and No. 5 are the largest, whilst that at the anal angle has two white pupils. Each ocellus 
is placed within a ring of greyish violet ; on the outer margin lines similar to those on 
primaries. Fringes as above. 
Expanse, J 64 millim., 2 68 millim. 
Widely distributed, occurring in various localities Horn Kiukiang to 
Moupin. At Chang-yang it is found at an elevation of 6000 feet. 
The type of Z. satyrina, Butl., is from Shanghai.

Wings in both sexes smoky brown, with their margins traversed by a slender pale band intersected 
by a line somewhat darker than the ground-colour. 
Male. Outer third of primaries rather paler than rest of wing. One small ocellus near the tip. 
Towards the outer margin of secondaries are two or sometimes three ocelli, that nearest to 
the anal angle being the largest and always having a white pupil, though this varies in size, 
and is scarcely visible in some specimens. 
Female. Larger than the male. Outer third of primaries paler. Often there are two ocelli situated 
one below the other near the apex, and sometimes a third lower down towards the outer 
angle. Ocelli on secondaries vary from two to four iu number, and are arranged along, and 
parallel with, the outer margin ; the lower pair always the largest. 
Under surface of both sexes pale greyish brown, with a pale band intersected by a dark wavy line, 
and bordered internally by a dark serrated line running parallel with the outer margins. 
Venation prominent. Outer third of primaries paler and separated by a dark brown wavy 
line. Discoidal cell divided by a dark line. Parallel to the outer margin are two, three, or 
four ocelli, that nearer the apex being much the largest. 
The markings on the secondaries are a dark basal streak from costa to the submedian uervure ; 
beyond this is another dark streak starting from the costa, and, after skirting ocellus at ante- 
rior angle, forms a deep elbow towards the outer margin, and then strikes off in an oblique 
direction towards the anal angle. Parallel with the outer margin is a series of six ocelli, that 
near the costa being the largest and nearly twice the size of No. 5, the next largest ; Nos. 4 
and 6 are about equal, but the latter sometimes exhibits a tendency to gemination. The 
costal ocelli can be faintly seen on the upper surface.
