Hi nwnisb black ; markings rich yellow arranged as follows : — a large spot at outer extremity of tbe 
cell of primaries with a dot above it, an interrupted band, consisting of four spots towards apex, 
below which are two (sometimes three) other spots about the centre of the wing ; these spots 
would be confluent if it were not for the dark neuration ; on the secondaries there is a discal 
si)ot, followed by a central band formed of yellow spots. Fringes greyish white, chequered 
with black. Under surface of primaries as above, but spriukled along the costa with yellowish 
scales ; there is also a row of spots on outer margin from the apex : secondaries thickly 
sprinkled with yellow scales ; in addition to the markings of the upper surface there are two 
liasal spots, and also a series of spots along the outer margin. The female agrees with the 
male, but on the under surface the secondaries and costal area of primaries are suffused with 
orange, the markings being of a paler shade.

Fuliginous brown. Primaries have six small yellowish spots, one discoidal, and a transverse series 
of five beyond, two of which occupy the median interspace, and three near costa. Fringes of 
secondaries and towards inner margin of primaries whitish, spotted with brownish. Under 
surface of primaries as above, with the addition of a broad stripe of yellowish scales along the 
costa, and some yellowish patches below apex : secondaries are thickly sprinkled with yellow- 
ish, especially on the basal half, which is divided into two parts by a dark transverse line just 
beyond a pale yellowish discoidal spot, there are central and submarginal series of pale yellow 
spots ; fringes as above.
