ocelli, each with a white pupil ; a conspicuous tuft of long black hairs overlapping a 
glandular patch of lustreless scales at base of the middle median veinlet. Underside 
dark ferruginous, palest and sometimes olivescent-tinged basally; exterior margins 
yellowish and traversed by a blackish submarginal line. Forewing crossed by a 
darker ferruginous subbasal angular line and a contiguous short line within the 
cell, with an intervening yellow bar; a transverse discal slightly sinuous narrow 
yellow band, beyond which is a linear series of four pale ocelli, and above these 
ocelli is a slight sinuous costal spot. Hindwing crossed by a straight subbasal and a 
wavy discal dark ferruginous line, the latter being yellowish bordered externally; 
beyond is a curved series of six prominent ocelli, each with a silvery-blue outer ring, 
the lowest ocellus being bi-pupilled. Female. Upperside dark olivescent ochreous- 
brown. Forewing crossed by an outwardly-oblique discal ill-defined very narrow 
pale ochreous-brown band, which is most distinct at its costal end ; beyond are three

Habitat. —Sikkim ; Bhotan. 
Distribution. —According to Mr. de Niceville (Butt. Ind. i. 139), “this is a rare 
insect in Sikkim, where it has been taken by Mr. 0. Moller in September.” “ Mr. 
Moller also took a single female in perfect condition in Birch Hill Park, 
Darjiling, at 6000 feet elevation ” (J. A. S. Beng. 1885, pt. ii. p. 2). It has also 
been taken at Bikisum, at 7000 feet elevation in Bhotan, in August. Mr. Elwes (Tr. 
Ent. Soc. 1888, 311) says, “This species is not uncommon, in Sikkim, in the dense 
virgin forest on Tendong, and near Bikisum, and rarer on the flanks of Sinchul from 
6000 to 8000 feet, in the months of July and August. I have, however, taken a 
single female at the end of June, but this sex is always rare, and flies but little.” It 
was also obtained at Darjiling by the late Mr. W. S. Atkinson.
