Imago.—U ppersicle olivaceous ochreous-brown; with a very indistinct pale trans¬ 
verse discal straight narrow fascia on both wings ; marginal lines pale ochreous- 
brown. Cilia pale ochreous. Forewing with a prominent large ocellus between the 
lower median veins. Hindwing in male sometimes with a very small lower median 
ocellus, and in the female with one, or sometimes two indistinctly visible subanal 
ocelli. Underside cinerescent-brown, with a more or less well-defined transverse 
discal ochreous-white or greyish-white band on both wings; marginal lunular lines 
ochreous-white and prominent. Forewing with a prominent small subapical ocellus, 
and a large lower median ocellus, each separately encircled by a greyish-white outer 
ring; very rarely a specimen occurs in which each ocellus has a minute attached 
ocellule, and then all are encompassed by the outer greyish-white line. Hindwing with 
seven prominent ocelli, of which the second, third, and seventh are the smallest, and all 
encompassed by a grevish-white outer wavy line. Male , on the upperside of the 
hindwing with a subbasal tuft of pale ochreous hairs overlapping a glandular patch 
of blackish scales; and on the underside of the forewing with a glandular patch of 
blackish scales on the middle of the submedian vein. The patch, as seen under the 
microscope, is composed of densely-packed but loosely raised, overlapping, large, 
broad, oval scales with even front edges. Compared with the patch of yellow scales 
on the forewing of 0. Visala , that of G. Mineus is two-thirds less in size, the scales are 
less closely packed, are more laxly raised, and are narrower both anteriorly and 
posteriorly. Body beneath, legs, and streaks on sides of palpi pale cinereous- 
brown.
