has no fork at the termen. Moreover, maenas has only 10 costal 

 streaks of the forewing, and they are somewhat heavier, the external 

 ones distinclty longer, and the internal area of the foremng has many 

 round, rather large, black spots. Also the spots of the hindwing are 

 different in the two species. The lamella antevaginaUs of 'pseudomaenas 

 has no sclerotized caudal Une, and the striated area of the cervical 

 portion of the corpus bursae and the entire corpus bursae are shorter 

 than in maenas.
