line faintly indicated; a dark fuscous, subapical mark; a faint, 

 fuscous, terminal line; cilia grey-whitish. Hindwings with 

 termen rounded, slightly crenulate; grey, with three, slightly 

 darker, transverse lines; cilia grey-whitish. Underside pale 

 grey; forewings with a short, whitish, transverse line from costa 

 near apex: hindwings with a fuscous, discal dot, and obscure, 

 antemedian and postmedian, transverse lines. 



Forewings in ^ with a small, but well-developed fovea; 10 out 

 of 9, 11 from cell, 10 anastomosing first with 11, then with 9 

 (l^). This species is interesting as illustrating the origin of 

 ifptrocampa (provided the Australian species are rightly referrefl 

 to this genus) from the Jjoar7nia-stem. In M. ada, the fovea is 

 distinct though incompletely developed: in J/, biplaya, it appeals 

 to be absent.
