The apex of both wings is produced and the outer margin crennlate, and siunons 

 only, not elbowed or angled at middle.

Forewing : ferruginons ochreons, the lines and retienlations darker ferrnginons ; 

 a dark brown costal streak running out into apex, the extreme edge paler in onter 

 third ; some brown streaks in basal half of cell, with a ferrnginons blotch at 

 one-third ; an oblique ferrnginons line just beyond middle, forked at costa anil 

 inner margin, the lower fork tilled up with ferrnginons ; the upper fork emits a 

 curved line towards a large oval ferrnginons blotch lying between veins 2 and 3, 

 above a bnllet-shaped blotch at anal angle ; a brown line from the costal -stre.ik at 

 five-sixths runs down towards anal angle parallel to outer margin ; the intervening 

 spaces covered with fine interlacing lines; the outer margin deeper ferruginous; 

 apex whitish ; fringe brown. 



lUndwing : with a curved ferrnginons line at one-third, followed by a small 

 white spot at lower end of discocellnlar ; some irregular coalescent dark ferruginous 

 blotches below costa before apex, which is whitish ; a round ferruginous blotch 

 between veins 2 and 3, above a streak from anal angle ; outer margin above middle 

 deeper ferruginous. 



Underside the same, but the dark markings better defined ; the apex of both 

 wings white ; the white cell-mai-k visible on forewing also. 



Head, palpi, shoulders, and a dorsal streak along abdomen deep ferruginous ; 

 thorax, patagia, and rest of abdomen paler varied with brighter. 



Expanse of wings : 05 mm.

Much resembling J), basipleta Warr., Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. xxix. p. 340, from 

 British Guiana, from which it differs as follows : the brown markings are all jialer, 

 more rusty brown ; the basal jiatcli of forewing covers quite one-third of the wing 

 instead of only one-fourth ; the costal streak is much broader throughout, and 

 the second of the projections depending from it is quite close to a[)ex a^id not 

 connected by a line with outer margin ; vein 2 is not marked with brown. In the 

 hindwing the oblique line from two-thirds of costa to outer margin, which cuts 

 off an equilateral triangle in basipleta, is absent, and is represented by a broad 

 brown streak from shortly before apex, forming a Y with the broad marginal line. 

 In both wings the pale ground colour is tinged with rufous, and the reticulations and 

 veins of hindwing are red. 



Expanse of wings : <J 40 mm. ; ? 50 mm.
