There is a yelloio suljmarglnal str'q)e, and the discal hand is composed of fidvous spots The secondaries are fuscous over the basal area, and beyond to the hind margin the color is fidvous, as decided as in Argynnis Cybele. Upon the disk are fve elongated, equal, white sjmts, arranged in a regtdar curve, and on the basal side of these is a coiispicuous yelloio strip)e which reaches half aci'oss the wing. On the under side, tJie basal third ofjirima- ries and the v)hole of the hind wing is yellow, the rest of primaries being fuscous,.
