contiguous ocellus between the middle and upper medians, and encircled within the 
pale outer line of the lower series. Again, rarely also a specimen of the female 
occurs, in which there is an additional upper minute ocellus (making six) disposed 
above the upper radial veinlet. Rindwing with seven prominent black ocelli, 
encompassed by a greyish-white wavy outer line. Male, on the underside of the 
forewing, with an elongated glandular patch of ochreous yellow scales upon the 
submedian vein extending from its middle to the discal pale band; and on the 
hindwing, above, with a subbasal tuft of pale hairs exserted or overlapping a 
glandular patch of ochreous yellow scales. 
Expanse If to 2 inches. 
Dry-Season Brood (Plate 65, fig. 1, e, f, g 7 h, $ %). 
Male and female. ITpperside similar to the wet-season brood. Underside paler 
in colour, either of a greyish or ochreous brown ; the transverse discal whitish line 
very narrow, but distinct; the ordinary subbasal transverse wavy line generally 
apparent. Foreiving with five very small ocelli disposed as in the ocellated brood, 
those of the female minute or anteriorly represented by white dots, the lowest one 
situated between the lower median and submedian vein being always present or 
indicated in both sexes. Rindwing with the ocelli also minute or anteriorly indicated 
by a white dot. Male with an elongated glandular patch of yellow scales on 
underside of the forewing, and a yellow patch overlapped by the subcostal tuft on 
upperside of the hlndwing. 
Expanse If to 2 inches. 
Habitat. —South India ; Ceylon. 
Distention.—O f the ocellated form, males and females from Travancore and 
Cochin are in the author’s possession, and also of the unocellated form taken in the 
Travancore Hills from 1700 to 3000 feet in March and April. Females of the 
ocellated form taken at Rajamundry, Madras, in July, are in Col. Swinhoe’s Collec¬ 
tion, as also a male of the ocellated form labelled 6 Kangra Valley,’ which latter 
locality is very doubtful and probably erroneous—no other example of the species 
possessing yellow glandular patches being known to the author from the N. W, 
Himalayas. In the Hewitson Collection there is a male of the ocellated form labelled 
Nilgiris, and there placed as a representative of Samantci Malsara. From Ceylon, 
Major Yerbury has recently sent us examples of both sexes of the ocellated form 
taken at Trincomli in August, and of the unocellated form taken in October 
and November, 1890.

males and females of the wet-season brood, and figs. 1, d, e, f, g, of the males and 
female of the dry-season brood.
