 oehreous. Forewings triangular, costa strongly arched, apex subrectangular, 

 termen slightly bowed, oblique; ochreous-grey-whitisli with fine brownish irrora- 

 tion; a whitish discal spot edged with fuscous beneath I eosta, and another 

 beneath eosta before middle; a finely dentieula.te fuscous line from f costa at 

 right angles for a short distance, then abruptly bent inwards and sinuate to 

 dorsum slightly before middle, posteriorly edged with oclireous; traces of a 

 fuscous subteiTninal line, best marked near costa and dorsum; cilia ochreous- 

 grey-whitish. Hindwings with termen rounded, tornus rather prominent; 6 and
