Expanse of wings : 19 mm. 



One 6 from Weeneu, Natal, January 189.3. 



The antennae of the cS are finely ciliated ; tlie hiud tibiae slender, with the 

 terminal pair of spars only ; veins 6 and 7 of hindwings stalked. At first sight the 

 violet stain suggests an accidental disfignrenient of the white gronnd-colonr ; but 

 the perfectly symmetrical outline of it on both wings prevents the acceptance of 

 this e.xplanation.

Foreivinqs : white, with delicate dark dusting, especially along the costa ; the

 onter line fine, ochreous, at four-fifths, marked with neat dark dashes on the veins 

 externally : between it and the cell-dot is an obliqne broadish ochreons line or
