 heavily clothed with pale cinereous hairs. Upper side : Anterior wings 

 wood-brown, darkest on the costa near the base. The wing is profusely 

 mottled with small brown spots, and is crossed beyond the cell by a 

 broad band of very dark brown, which does not touch the costa, uor 

 quite reach the inner edge. This band is split by a wedge of veryi^ale 

 brown at the end nearest the inner margin. The wing is further orna- 

 mented by an interrupted, irregular submarginal band of brown. The 

 posterior wing is paler in color than the anterior wing. The limbal 

 area of this wing is ornamented by spots growing darker and heavier 

 toward the outer margin. Near the outer angle these spots are fused 

 so as to form a V-shaped mark. Under side: Upon the under side the 

 wings are darker than upon the upper side, and the same markings

 Anterior wings wood-brown. About the middle of the costa there are 

 three dark brown spots. Above the cell, about one-third of the way 

 from the base, is a large pale spot slightly clouded with brownish in the 

 center. A smaller oval spot of like color appears in the cell near its 

 end. Above the end of the cell there are two small, silvery, sagittate 

 marks with their points in ojiposite directions, the one above the other. 

 The larger arrow, which has its barbs toward the outer border of the 

 wing, is immediately followed by a short curved baud of brown spots 

 bordered inwardly and outwardly by pale cinereous; this short band 

 is followed by a longer submarginal band of similar spots, extending 

 from near the apex to before the outer angle; there are also two comma-
