Underside traversed by two rows of black-centred ocelli, there being a similar spot at the apex of the cell. Hindwing beneath with small red anal band. Fixsen has proposed the names ab. fulva and ab. fulvofenestrata for specimens with a more or less large futvo- yellow discal patch on the forewing. — Amurland, Corea. Larva velvety, uniformly dark green, beneath more bluish green, with the head glossy black. In June adult on Pyrus. Pupa light green, with a brownish violet saddle-spot (Graeser). The butterfly appears in July, flying particularly about the twigs of Phellodendron amurense.[3]
