on the costa, is preceded and followed by a conspicuous while mark, below the outer of these 
marks is a white spot, and another white mark is placed at the edge of the fascia about the 
centre of the wing ; seven submarginal blind ocelli with narrow fulvous irides are each 
followed by somewhat triangular chocolate-coloured spots ; outer margin broadly blackish. 
Expanse 62-66 millim. 
Although I have had hundreds of this species, I have only seen one female, 
and this is of the form described below as 
Var. albicans, var. nov. (Plate VII. fig. 7, d •) The spots on the primaries are larger and much 
paler in colour; there are some yellowish clouds in the discoidal cell, and the veins are yellow 
to the outer third of the wing ; on the secondaries the spots are larger and paler than in the 
type, but not quite so pale as those on primaries. Under surface of primaries pale yellowish, 
with the typical markings rather narrower : of secondaries grey, varied with black and white 
markings, the white markings wider and more conspicuous than in the type. 
Both the type and var. albicans occur at Chow-pin-sa and Ta-chien-lu in 
May and June, but I have received the type only from Pu-tsu-fong, and in 
Kwei-chow the variety appears to be the only form.

The following is Felder's description of the type : — 
"Alis supra fuscescentibus, anticis maculis tribus suboceUatis nigris in fascia dilutiore aliisque 
duabus costalibus albidis, posticis maculis exterioribus seriatis nigris, brunneo cinctis ; subtus 
multo pallidioribus, figuris cellularibus strigisquo binis exterioribus fuscescentibus diffuse 
albido limbatis, anticis oceDis tribus interjectis (duabus inferioribus inter ramos medianos sat 
raagnis), posticis ocellis ooto (?) minutis, sed distinetis. J (?)." {Felder, I. c.) 
Var. segonax. " Upperside. Male, rufous brown ; anterior wing with a white spot near the 
apex, and below it is a black blind ocellus ; posterior wing with four oval black blind ocelli. 
" Underside rufous, clouded with grey and brown ; both wings crossed beyond the middle by a 
rufous band bordered on both sides, on its outer side with grey-white, both with a zigzag 
band near the outer margin, the outer margin and a parallel line dark brown : anterior wing 
with two rufous bands across the cell, enclosing a third band divided into four ; four oval 
ocelli, the second obscure : posterior wing with three round spots of yeUow near the base, 
followed bj' a broken rufous baud ; eight small ocelli, all black, with white pupils, the iris 
rufous. Expanse 2^^ inches." (Heivitson, I. c.) 
Var. felderi, var. nov. (Plate VIII. fig. 4, ^ .) Male. Similar in colour to the type but tinged 
with golden ; there is a pale spot on costa of primaries near apex, but there is no trace of any 
black spots on the wings ; the secondaries are also without black spots in three specimens out of 
four, but in the fourth there are two distinct black spots near anal angle. Under surface paler
