 produced on the disc ; the second is regularly scalloped, interspaceally 

 waved, and runs from apical third to internal margin. The wide median

 thickly dusted with dusky cells. The usual discal mark consists of two 

 superposed white spots duskily ringed. Hind wings of the same gray

 and outwardly limited by a faint mesial band visible towards anal margin.
