" Alis supra brunneis, albo-maculatis : anticis maoulis duabus discocellularibus super alteram 
exteriorem magnam quadratara, macula subapioali tripartita, alteris duabus inter maculas 
subapioalem et quadratam, strigaque parva in vena submediana (maculis omnibus jlellucidis). 
Posticis maculis quatuor pellucidis, fasciam brevem formantibus. 
" Subtus, alis ochraceo-bruimeis, anticis ad marginem interiorem nigro-fuseis, maoulis ut in pagina 
superiore. Ciliis albis.

" Hah. Japoniam. 
" Allied to P. guttata, Brem., Grey, but sufficiently distinct. The spots on the hind wing are 
arranged in a curious alternate manner, the first and third being nearer the hind margin than 
the second and fourth." [Murrai/, I.e.) 
" Allied to H. eltola, Hewitson. 
" Male. Differs in the fore wings being slightly more elongate, the hind wing more convex 
exteriorly, and the anal angle less lobed ; markings above similar, those on fore wing narrower, 
the spot between the median branches elongated and extending to their basal angle ; those on 
the hind wing very small, the outer spot crossed by a vein. Underside brownish ochreous ; 
base of fore wing slightly dusky ochreous ; markings as above. 
" Expanse Ifj inch. 
''Habitat. N.E.Bengal." (Moore, I.e.) 
" Female. Rather larger and less richly coloured than the male, with the large discal semitrans- 
parent lustrous spot in the first median interspace of the fore wing shorter, emarginate, and 
not extending to the base of the interspace. 
" One example has only the three posterior of the spots of the underside of the hind wing — and 
those much reduced in size — instead of five, but four are visible on the upperside." ( Wood- 
Mason .j-de NieeviUe,!. c.) 
Var. quinquepuncta, Mabille. " Xous rapportons a cette espece une forme qui, tout d'abord, 
parait tres ditferente. Elle est plus grande (40 millimetres). Les ailes superieures ont les 
points un pen plus gros et il y en a un de plus assez souvent dans la ligne oblique, place au- 
dessous des points apicaux, qui sont tous bien marques ct cgaux. Les ailes inferieures 
ofErent les quatre points allonges inegaux et inegalement places et un cinquicme prig dn 
bord anterieur, dont les males semblent depourvus. 
" Japon, montagnes do I'interieur." (MahiUe. 1. c.) 
This species varies considerably in size. I met with it commonly all over 
Japan, and also at Gensan in the Corea, and in the Kurile Islands. Several
