some lights. The hind wings have also a greenish cast, the
spots sheAving through, and the lower corner and margin orange.
The female is without the black bar on the fore Avings; their
base is also fulvous broAvn as is the margin, so that the orange
forms a wide irregular bar across the centre of these wings. The
hind wings are tawny brown, with a waved bar of orange; the
margin lighter, edged with black interiorly.
Underneath, the colours shew through, but duller; the hind
wings are principally of a greenish cast, the lower corner orange,
and the bar the same, but paler.
The figures are from specimens in my own collection.
