Var. OCELLATA. 
Male. — Expands 2.1 inches. 
Upper side of primaries next base ferruginous, the remainder blackish-brown, 
the nervules sometimes faintly marked by ferruginous; secondaries blackish- 
brown, clothed at base and along the abdominal margin with long greenish-brown 
hairs; both wings have a black line, forming the inner part of the marginal bor¬ 
der, preceded by a series of small, pale ferruginous spots, wanting next the apex 
of primaries; on secondaries these spots are lunular and often concolored, but 
the anterior side of each is edged with fuscous or brown, and together forms a 
distinct crenated line which crosses the entire wing; on the disk of primaries a 
transverse sinuous row of seven rounded yellow or yellow-ferruginous spots, the 
sixth and seventh being in the sub-median interspace; beyond these a second 
row of five spots of same color as the others, occupying the median, discoidal 
and two lower subcostal interspaces, four of them arranged in a curve parallel 
to the incised edge of the wing, and the fifth, on costal margin, forming a right 
angle with the two next succeeding; in the cell two black, transverse, sinuous 
bars sometimes joined on the sub-costal nervure. Secondaries have an extra-dis- 
cal series of six large, rounded black spots, disposed as in Celtis, each spot sur¬ 
rounded by a narrow fulvous ring, which is sometimes expanded on the basal side 
into a large fulvous patch, especially in the sub-costal interspaces; on the middle 
of the costal margin a pale, sordid-fulvous patch ; fringes of both wings white in 
the emarginations, fuscous at the ends of the nervules. 
Under side of primaries brown in several shades, grayish in the cell, with a 
yellow tint over the outer half of same, and grayish over the basal part ol the 
sub-costal interspaces; somewhat red-tinted below the cell and in the median
