On the under side the spots and bars are repeated ; the veins of the hind wings are broadly marked with green- ish yellow sprinkled with brown scales, and the tips of the fore wings tinged with greenish yellow. Female (Fig. 24). — The color is the same, and the fore wings have the bar at the end of cell and the sub- terminal row of spots, but these show a tendency to blend, and the outer margin sup- ports a border of triangles connect- ing with the sub- terminal row by rays. The hind wings have a zigzag sub- terminal blackish line, the outer portions sending rays to the margin, where they are somewhat expanded. The base of both wings is more sprinkled with dark scales than in the males. The under side similar to that of the male.
