three orange-ochre costal lines ; the outer two ante-apical, outwardly- 

 oblique and joining a marginal line of the same color ; the inner a little 

 less oblique, just without the middle of the wing. The marginal line only 

 extends to the outer border of a black patch situate below the median fold 

 and containing four or five ochre dots. Fringes silky, concolorous with 

 the wings. Hind wings a little darker than primaries, immaculate. 

 Beneath concolorous brownish fuscous, with the exterior margins of both 

 wings shaded with pale. £osta of primaries above at apices narrowly 

 yellowish, enclosing fuscous streaklets. No costal fold. 



Expanse 18 mil. Illinois, Mr. Thos. E. Bean, No. 630. Seems to be 

 rather distantly allied to the European arcuana.
