 cell near base ; an antemedial series of four black spots, inwardly oblique from 

 below costa ; medial line black, incurved in the cell and connected with the 

 antemedial spots by two short streaks, excurved below the cell, angled inwards 

 at vein 1 and forming a spot at inner margin ; an oblique discoidal bar ; pcst- 

 medial line black, bent outwards below costa, incurved at discal fold, angled 

 outwards at vein 3, then oblique and maculate ; an irregularly triangular sub- 

 terminal black patch from costa to vein 6, a spot below vein 4 and an incuived 

 mark from tornus ; a terminal series of minute black spots forming a bar at 

 discal fold with a blackish patch beyond it on the cilia. Hindwing grey suffused 

 with fuscous ; a termir.al series of slight black points to vein 3 ; the underside

 middle of frons and shghtly fringed with hair, the 3rd short and thickly scaled ; 

 frons smooth ; eyes large, round ; antennae of male ciliated ; hind tibiae with 

 two pairs of spurs. Forewing with the apex rounded, the termen evenly curved ; 

 veins 3 and 5 from near angle of cell ; 6 from just below upper angle ; 7, 8, 9 

 stalked, 7 from before 9 ; 10, II almost from a point. Hindwing with veins 

 3, 4 from angle of cell ; 5 from just above angle ; 6, 7 from upper angle, 7 

 strongly curved upwards, almost perpendicularly towards origin ; 8 from near 

 middle of cell and strongly arched ; the male with the costa strongly lobed 

 except towards base.
