Female.—Upper surface dark blackish brown, the markings dark yellow, slightly fulvous-tinted; there is a slight sprinkling of yellow scales over the surface, especially the basal portion. The mark- ings of the fore wings are: a slight ray Fig. 84. in the upper part of the cell, and traces of one in the lower part; and a broken band of seven spots beyond the middle, the two opposite the cell beyond the line of the others. The first three of these Rimphiia iv-ciuus, spots are oblong in the subcostal inter- spaces; the next four mostly quadrate; sometimes the fourth of the seven is wanting, and there are occasionally a few scales on the. submedian vein in line with the last spots. Hind wings with a band of five spots, in width about one-fourth the length of the wing; spots 3 and 4 the largest. Under side fulvous brown, the basal half of the fore wings fuscous; the spots of the fore wings are repeated, lighter yellow, there being eight of them instead of seven. The hind wings have two broad pale yellow bands, a little irregular in outline, the lower part of the inner often united with the middle of the outer, as in Fig. 84.
