with an apical and terminal shade of the same colour and with a shorter parallel shade preceding it ; 
this cloudy suffusion is much broken up by longitudinal lines and streaks of the white ground-colour, a 
central one interrupted by a spot at the end of the cell being specially noticeable, the terminal shade-
