Imago. —Male. Upperside pale orange-yellow. Forewing suffused more or less 
with orange, some blackish-green irrorations on the lower base, a large black spot at 
the end of the cell, and a very deep dull black marginal border, occupying more than a 
third of the wing, of a fairly uniform breadth, its inner edge scalloped above the middle 
and bent inward on to the costa, its lower edge angled and then runs inwards on the 
lower margin to its middle. Hind wing irrorated with blackish-green scales, a large 
orange, round spot at the end of the cell and a deep black marginal border, which 
generally stops abruptly on vein 2 ; the veins through the border whitish, and often 
this is the case also on the forewing. Underside dull whitish-yellow, very uniform in 
colour on both wings. Forewing with a black cell spot. Hind wing very sparsely 
irrorated with greenish scales, a whitish spot at the upper end of the cell. Cilia of 
both wings white. 
Female. Upperside bright ochreous-orange. Fore wing with the cell spot and 
outer band as in the male, but the band has generally three or four pale spots, Hind- 
iving covered with greenish-grey irrorations, an orange cell spot, and the band about as 
broad as in the male, but suffused hindwards, where it has some pale streaks. Cilia 
orange and white. Underside as in the male, but some examples have the inner 
portion of the forewing suffused more or less with orange, and there are three or four 
lower discal black spots.
