confused blackish scales. Median space olivaceous-green, concolorous; 

 a small whitish discal dot, clouded outwardly with blackish scales. An 

 oblique, even, subterminal, blackish line, bordered inwardly with a pale

 attain, becoming obsolete in the space below. This line is most distinct on 

 internal margin, where it is slightly dilated by a few blackish, scattered 

 scales. Terminal .space olivaceous-green, concolorous with median space 

 and widening towards internal margin ; fringes brownish except a very 

 few scales at internal angle, which are whitish.

 pair is slightly bent below costa. The green posterior wings show a 

 few scattered brownish scales. 



Head and thoracic region dark intense green above. A lateral mar-

 to tips of palpi.
