Summary edit

Description
English: Orsotriaena medus is a butterfly found in South Asia, Southeast Asia, and Australia. The butterfly has historically been called the "Nigger", but it has been renamed in Australian fauna works to the socially acceptable name of Smooth-eyed Bushbrown.

Orsotriaena medus is a medium-sized butterfly with wingspan of 45 to 55 mm (1.8 to 2.2 in). The butterfly is dark brown above with a thin marginal pale border. The upper hindwing having a thin submarginal line. There are no eye-spots on the upper side of the wings.

Below, the butterfly has a white discal band which runs across both wings. It has five ocelli beloe (eyespots) on the undersides of the wings. In the forewing, it has two eyespots, with the anterior eyespot slightly smaller. In the hindwing, it has two ocelli on the apical region and a separate ocellus in the tornal (hindmost) region. The uppermost of the eyespots in the hindwing are greatly smaller, while the remaining two are more or less of equal sizes.

Orsotriaena medus is divided into several subspecies, listed below with their respective synonyms and geographical ranges. This is Orsotriaena medus mandata (Moore, 1857) found in Sri Lanka and South India.
