Imago. —Male. Upperside olivescent-black. Forewing with a bright olive-green 
transverse basal stripe, a stripe crossing base of the cell, three equidistant short 
pairs across its middle and a short one before the apex, two small spots beyond end 
of the cell, an oblique discal series of seven spots, the upper two small, the second 
outwardly placed, the others gradually increasing in size, followed below by three 
outwardly-oblique spots and a parallel subbasal stripe cut by the submedian vein ; 
beyond is a submarginal row of nine small spots. Eindwing with a bright olive- 
green basal stripe, a subbasal broken stripe extending broadly from the costa and 
obliquely narrower across the cell, and thence inwardly within the lower median 
interspace, followed by a transverse discal curved series of six spots decreasing in 
size posteriorly, the upper or costal spot being large and white, and then a sub- 
marginal row of irregularly-lunate spots, the four lower being narrow and the upper 
one white; abdominal fold greyish-white, sometimes greenish, when open displaying 
a greyislr-ochreous w 7 oolly scent patch. Cilia slenderly greyish-white. Underside 
pale purplish-brown, clouded with dark olive-brown patches. Forewing with the 
olive-green markings as on upperside, but less prominent, the submarginal more or 
less obscured by brown scales, those in the lower median and submedian interspaces 
almost white-scaled, and the discal spots have their exterior portion densely covered 
with white scales. Hindwing with similar disposed markings as on upperside, the 
basal and the upper part of subbasal stripe—from the costal to partly across the 
cell—being olive-green, the lower portion of the latter, the lower four discal spots, 
and the submarginal spots being obscured by brown scales ; the fifth discal spot is 
small, round, and very pale green, the upper discal or costal spot is broad and either 
greyish-white or pinkish-white, both these latter being inwardly margined with a 
pink-bordered black lunule ; a small black spot above anal angle preceded by a 
reddish spot, both being bordered with greyish or black scales. Tails of males
