Abdomen brown. Labial Palpi slender, dependent, with two or three bristles; pale brownish. Mawzillary 
Palpi folded. Head rough; ferruginous. Thorax brown. Forewings brownish ochreous, almost entirely 
suffused with dark ferruginous brown, mixed with dark fuscous scaling; there is no clearly dis- 
tinguishable pattern, but the dark fuscous colour is chiefly noticeable in a wavy line extending from the 
middle of the cell to the apex, well-marked at its commencement, well-marked also at the end of the 
cell, and beyond it in the apical shade—there is a small spot also in the fold, a little beyond the 
commencement of the dark shade above it; cilia pale brownish ochreous, the dorsum below the fold less 
suffused than the remainder of the wing. Exp. al. 12 mm. Hindwings dark purplish grey, becoming 
shining cupreous toward the apex; cilia dark grey. Abdomen dark brownish grey. Legs ochreous,
