Botis 7'iififimbtialis, 71. s. 



Allied to sumptuosalis, but the fringes are reddish fuscous cut with 

 deep red. Fore wings purply red over blackish ; the costal region and 

 terminal space being very dark. The two discal spots are small and black 

 and difficult to make out ; there is a yellow dot between them. Two dark 

 yellow bands cross the wing ; the inner oblique, not continued on costal 

 region, not very distinct ; median space inferiorly with scattered yellow 

 scales. The outer yellow band is broken into a rather large spot opposite 

 the disc and appears again as a short waved line above internal margin. 

 Hind wings blackish, sub-transparent, with red stained fringes and an 

 abbreviate yellowish line. Abdomen fuscous above, pale beneath ; legs, 

 pectus and under side of palpi pale or whitish ; palpi and thorax above 

 dusky. Wings beneath paler than above, especially the secondaries at 

 base, within a darker marginal shade. Expanse 16 mil. Mass., Mr. L.
