aiv in foi-fwini;' nbo\it midway between antenoil.il nervures I ;iih1 l* : 

 one or two \fry incomplete rows of cells in the space between llir 

 snbnodal sector and the sup]iltMn(Mitary sector of forewing. Stij^iiia 

 liright opa(|ue yellow. ( 'osta brown, reddish brown in its outer 

 third. A broad, blackish-brown fascia crossing both wings from 

 the base to 2 postnodal cells in the forewing and 'j-l in the hind, in

 its middle. 



Annlappe)Hhi(jes. — Ochreous, the su]ierior long, about OJ- a little le.-s 

 than the length of IHh and 1 Uth abdominal segments, pidjescent. 

 cylindrical and pointed. The inferior fused to form a triangidar 

 body, notched slightly at the extremity. 



Sexual on/ans. — L. a. recumbent, on its surface two tufts of long. 

 o-revish cilia\ Hamecons very small, anterior as two, small, stronti'h - 

 arched, slim hooks ; posterior, low and blunt : lobe moderately large, 

 roiinded and projecting somewhat more than the hamecons.

 organs and a few points in the wings, similar to the male. 



Head. — Eves olivaceous with 2 dark-brown lines traversing them 

 from above do^\■nwards, to half-way down the sides, the anterior ot 

 these bands starting from the apex of the occipital triangl(\ 

 Clypeiis, epistome, vesicle, occiput and labium and labrum, all light 

 greenish-yellow. 



Proiliorao: lemon-vellow with two transverse, black streaks.

Leije. yellow, streaked iu their length with black. Spines similar 

 to male. 



Winqs. — Antenodal nerviires 8^-7^, the fiiuT.1 one complete or 

 incomplete , this lack of sjmimetry sometimes seen in the opposite 

 wings of a single specimen, and some of the nervures often bifurcat- 

 ing in the costal space. Trigone in forewings traversed by one 

 nervnre ; only ous row of cells in the space between the subnodal 

 sector and the supplementary nervure. The black fascia found in 

 the male, entirely absent in the female : the antenodal nervures 

 bright yellow as is also the pterostigma. 



Anal ajipendarjes ochreous, tipped wiih black, widely se])arated. 

 cylindrical, nearly as long as in the male, straight. 



Sexual orrjans. — Vulvar scale, two triangular, stOTit organs, slightly 

 separated with concave, opposing borders aiid a minute point at their 

 extremities. 



Ahdoiiieii olivaceous-green with a black, mid-dorsal line and a 

 brown, subdorsal fascia: the edges, narrowly black. Extent ot 

 markings variable, iu some these preponderating over the gromid 

 colour and in juvenile specimens, the latter preponderating.
