veins 9 and 10, and 10 and 11; a distinct ochreous tinge runs along the costa and around the termen, 
as also along the margins of an elongate chocolate-brown patch, extending to nearly three-fourths the 
wing-length and occupying the space between. the upper edge of the cell and the dorsum 3 the outer. 
extremity of this patch is rounded above and below, and the ochreous tinge which forms its margin 
separates it from the dorsum as far as the lower extremity of a slightly outward-curved streak, whieh 
divides it into two almost equal parts, extending obliquely from the middle of its upper edge to the 
dorsum at half the wing-length ; cilia whitish ochreous. vp. al. 24mm. Hindwings whitish ochreous, 
suffused with brownish; cilia whitish ochreous, a slight yellowish tinge along their base. Abdomen

This species is intermediate between renselariana Stoll and loxogrammos Z., the 
line intersecting the brown patch being similar to that in the former, whereas in the 
latter it is not bent; moreover the outer extremity of the same patch is not square as 
in renselariana, but rounded at its upper and lower extremities, while in loxogrammos 
it is rounded at the upper but scarcely at the lower extremity and the dividing line 
extends much further in that direction than in ergates.
