apex round-pointed, hindinargin oblique, slightly rounded ; ashy- 

 grey ; a moderately broad ochreous-white costal streak from base 

 to j, posteriorly obliquely truncate ; a suffused ochreous white 

 streak along fold from about J, and another along inner margin, 

 confluent posteriorly, and abruptly truncate before anal angle ; a 

 black dot in disc at £, another directly beneath it on fold, a third 

 above middle, a fourth sometimes obsolete slightly before middle, 

 and two others transversely placed beyond middle ; a hindmarginal 

 row of blackish dots : cilia whitish-grey, at anal angle ochreous- 

 white. Hindwings grey ; cilia whitish-grey. 



An extremely distinct and elegant species.

 simply analogous.
