 As the description of this species is not readily accessible to students, 

 I reproduce it here : — 



" Female rosy red ; body densely clothed, and partly pale yellow 

 beneath ; head with a pale yellow band on the front ; palpi extremely 

 short ; thorax with six longitudinal pale yellow streaks ; abdomen rosy, 

 lanuginous and partly yellow to the base, extending much beyond the 

 hind wings ; fore wings with some pale yellowish streaks toward the 

 base, with three exterior whitish macular, very oblique bands ; spots 

 mostly cuneiform j costa straight ; tips slightly acute ; exterior borders 

 slightly convex, extremely oblique ; first and second inferior veins con- 

 tiguous at the base ; third very near the second ; fourth remote from the 

 third ; hind wings whitish cinereous, slightly hyaline ; veins and fringe 

 slightly yellowish. Length of the body, 7 lines ; of the wings, 20 lines. 

 " This species may form a new genus. It differs somewhat from 

 Halisidota in the structure of the veins of the fore wings."
