(J9. 90-112 mm. Closely allied to //. iiidyfa, Wlk., but an-

 portions of forewings irrorated with whitish, without suffused 

 median longitudinal whitish band; a very short distinctly out- 

 lined white basal streak; a circular white mark on dorsal portion 

 of base enclosing a dark fuscous centre, partly irrorated with

 inner margin ochreous.

 range of variation would be acceptable.
