 Anterior wings without distinct markings ; a pr minent longitudinal 

 discal fold. A luniform pale reddish spot beyond the dlscal cell; two 

 series of similar colored, irregular spots between the nervules in the 

 terminal space, the upper series parallel with the margin, the lower (in 

 which the first maculation is situate in the interspace between the se- 

 cond and third inferior nervules) is inversely oblique, the first macula- 

 tion situate within the last of the first series, and the last immediately 

 in the margin above internal angle. These maculations are normally 

 six in number, three in each series, are faint and hardly disturb the 

 unicolorousness which the wings pi-esent. The whole wing is indistinctly 

 marbled with darker shade streaks; fringes short, darker colored. Be- 

 neath, the costal are stone-colored, and the entire surface covered with 

 pale reddish-ochraceous scales, faintly reflecting the oi'namentation of 

 the upper surface ; at base, below costa, some longer, brighter colored 

 scales. Posterior wings, pale reddish-ochraceous, immaculate, thinly 

 clothed with scales, unicolorous, since nowhere is the coloration per- 

 ceptibly deepened; fringes, short, darker colored. Antennae long,
