This species has been confused with T. iaeclius, but is quite distinct, and easily .separated bv the central 
land or crange spots of hindwing above. The orange-brown colour beneath i.s sometimes/especiallv in 
the lemale, tinged pinkish: the discal spots of the hindwing beneath are often reduced to blackish dots. 
A variety of this species, with a single large ringed cell sjiot only, upon hindwing beneath, and with 
he darker veins dividing orange hand of hindwing above, almost or quite wanting, lia.s been described 
by Lower (Trans. Roy. Soc. S. A. 1911, p. 139) under the name of monom/cla. This can only be re¬ 
garded as an aberration and not as a geograi>lucal race, for tyiiical T, eliena also occurs in the same 
localities (Mt. Gambler (Lower) and Gisborne).
