 antemedial line, the costa and inner margin dark brown, crossed 

 by an inbent subbasal white line; antemedial line partly double, 

 the first line deeply outcurved, interrupted in cell, followed on costal 

 margin by a broad white shade to middle of cell, where it narrows 

 and is connected with reniform by a fine white line, and contains on 

 costa three dark points; the second line apparent from middle of 

 cell, inset on vein 1 toward the first line; median vein from middle 

 of cell and veins 2-4 white to postmedial line; medial and post- 

 medial space mostly brown shaded with red on costa and above 

 vein 1, where there is also a white spot; inner margin medially cream 

 color and red; a red streak below vein 7 at curve of postmedial

 continuing as a fuscous shade to inner margin; a subapical white 

 line from costa to termen at vein 5, leaves a triangular reddish costal

 vein 4; a terminal silvery white line with three small black spots 

 between apex and vein 5; some white lines on veins and diagonally 

 break the subterminal space between veins 7 and 4 into spots; 

 terminal space from vein 4 to tornus fuscous brown broadest between 

 veins 3 and 4 and inwardly edged with white; subterminally there is 

 a broad ocherous shade from vein 3 to inner margin. Hind wings: 

 Basal half white; outer half fuscous shaded with red at anal angle; a

 shades on terminal third; a postmedial geminate black line, finely 

 lunular beyond cell, and preceded between veins 6 and 8 by a roseate
