dilated. Forewiiigs triangular, costa nearly straight, apex 

 rounded, termen bowed, oblique, slightly crenulate; whitish, 

 markings fuscous or fuscous-i)ro\vn; a series of dots on costa, 

 those marking conimencement of lines being larger; antemediiin 

 line from ^ costa to \ dorsum, often obsolete except at extremities; 

 a suffused fuscous median discal spot containing a whitish central 

 dot; postmedian from | costa to | dorsum, tine, dentate, j-onie- 

 times partly obsolete; sometimes a blotcii on dorsum following 

 antemeilian; a suffused irregiihir lilotch between postmedian and 

 termen; besides these markings, a variable amount of irroration 

 sometimes forming strigulre; cilia whitish. Hindwings witli 

 termen rounded, crenulate: colour, irioration and cilia as fore- 

 wings: no antemedian line; discal dot minute or absent; post- 

 median curved, finely dentate. Under-side ochreous-whitish; 

 markings dark reddish or dark fuscous, one or the other shade 

 preponderating; both wings with discal spots, larger on forewinys, 

 fine postmedian lines, and broad sul)terminal bands; forewing.s 

 with a bi'oad longitudinal streak above and parallel to dorsum. 



A variable species. My examples are mostly undated, but I 

 suspect there are two sea.sonal forms, a larger paler sunmier form 

 with markings on underside mostly reddish, and a smaller darker 

 winter form with markings on underside mostl}' fuscous.
