Male (figs. 95, 96) . — Wings above most similar to drusilla, differing 

 by the broader outer margin above vein Cui which gradually broadens 

 toward costa. Wings below most similar to vibulena but with a

Male genitaha, as illustrated by figure 14, with aedeagus bent 

 downward at base and shghtly and gradually upturned distally; saccus 

 relatively short, much shorter than harpe; foreward bend of vinculum 

 prominent and low (much below middle) ; lateral lobe of uncus with 

 distal margin strongly concave, lower distal angle as prominent as 

 upper distal angle, lower margin slightly undulate; inner surface of 

 gnathos arm Avith carina ridgehke and pointed; harpe in lateral view
