inside edges being interrupted there and nnited to form two central white blotelies, 

 the upper elongated and reaching the costa, the lower toadstool-shaped and reaching 

 inner margin ; the outer edge of the central fascia denticulate, the teeth between 

 veins 2 and 3, and 3 and 4, being jjrominent and filled up with dark scales ; the 

 intervals before and beyond tiie central fascia each traversed b}' three dark lines, 

 (if which only the middle one is clear ; submarginal line pale, interru]ited, jireceded 

 by dark lunules, except between veins (i and 7, where the ground-colour rnns 

 obliquely to apex, and followed by dark lunnles beyond cell and by black spots 

 below ; the apex of the lunule between veins 3 and 4 forms a conspicuous pale 

 spot ; marginal line black, festooned ; fringe brown with fuscous mottling ; cell-spot 

 pale brown.

 concisely marked with darker ; fringe sandy ochreous, mottled with darker. Head 

 and shoulders olive-brown, like the forewings ; thorax and abdomen like the

Forewings : white ; costal streak black ; from its middle a curved black tooth- 

 shaped mark depends, the curved black discocellular mark forming its inner edge, 

 its outer running straight and oblique to its apex on vein 3 ; the veins of the cell 

 and its fold are black, as well as vein 2 ; inner margin below median vein and 

 vein 2 sufi'nsed with black ; apical fourth broadly black and the hindmargin from 

 vein 2 to 3 more narrowly. 



JlimhnrKjs : whitish, thickly dusted with dark scales; all the veins thickly 

 black ; costa and hindmargin lilack, and a black curved line from three-fourths of 

 costa to end of vein 4.
