This race is mucli smaller and duller, and has somewhat narrower wings than herceus which occurs 
on the lower slopes of the same mountain. It does not appear on the wing till late in February, by 
which time 0. orichora (with which it has hitherto been confused) has almost disap])eared.

This species is easily separated from all subspecies of lathoniella by the discal band of hindwing 
beneath being divided into small whitish spots. This band forms a large ereseent-sha])ed silvery spot 
on basal side of both ocelli in lathoniella races and hi female correae, but not in orichora, and these 
spots in orichora are Avhitish and not silver 3 % The golden brown margins of the ocelli are faintly tinged 
red-brown, especialh^ in the female.

spots reaching vein 3, golden broAvn: a series of small obsciu*ed sublerminal S25ots, golden brown: a 
subajiical ocdlus, black. Hindwing black: a series of small basal siiots and a series of irregular 
discal spots, golden brown; a series of small obscured subterminal spots, golden brown: a ringed

Beneath. Forewing as above but suffused reddish brown; spots as above but larger and obscured. 
Hiudwing A^ellow-hrown: spots as above but larger and very obscured: a ringed subapical and sub¬ 
tornal ocellus, black.

A verj^ abundant sjiecies at an elevation of about 5000ft. The sexes are easily' recognised by the 
silvery spots })resent in female onl^’: this sexual difference caused Olliff to describe the male as
