 wings with the apex obtuse, subrectangular ; the median angle large, rounded ; 

 the edge below this angle regularly and deeply excavated, not suddenly, as in 

 /'. fervidaria ; hind wings with the outer edge rather more sinuous than usual.

 dark in the hollow below the median angle. Hind wings white, with scat- 

 tered deep-ochreous strigse near the inner angle, with a straight, dark, rust-
