of hindmargm : cilia whitish-ochreous. Hindwings with hind- 

 margin rounded, unevenly waved ; colour and strigula? as in 

 forewings, but basal half more whitish-ochreous ; a dark grey 

 discal dot ; median shade forming a short grey line from inner 

 margin ; second line faintly traceable as a pale sinuate shade. 



Sydney, New South Wales ; in October, two specimens. Easily 

 known by the yellowish-ochreous colouring, obsolescence of lines, 

 and unicolorous head and thorax.
