275. Aeschropteryx tetragouata ab. parvidens nov. 

 Like the type form of tetragoimta Guen. in general ajipearancc, though paler, 

 more ochreous, in ground colour : but the hindmargin of hindwing forms at vein 4 a 

 small sharp tooth instead of a bluntly rounded tail. Li forewing the retracted 

 portion of the oblique outer line is very sliglitly marked, shorter than in the type 

 form, reaching costa nearer apex, and therefore the angle between the two portions 

 is more obtuse. In both wings the oblique line reaches the inner margin farther 

 from the base than in tetmgonata.
