second spot rising from dorsum before tornus, inwards-oblique, with 

 a dilated top, connected by a slender line with tornus; the three 

 last mentioned spots converging more or less in middle of wing half- 

 way between cell and termen; an ill-defined suffusion or irroration 

 on dorsum, reaching to fold. Ciha whitish with fuscous tips. 



Hindwing fuscous grey. Cilia pale fuscous with a white base and 

 a darker fuscous subbasal line. 



Male genitalia as described with the genus.

Figures 66, 539 



Female, 14 mm. Head and thorax pale ochreous, slightly mLxed 

 with tawny. Palpus pale ochreous, median segment strewn with 

 dark brown at base, lower edge and a transverse preapical band 

 suffused fuscous, terminal segment almost concealed, infuscated. 

 Abdomen grey, anal tuft pale at base. 



Forewing oblong-truncate, rather narrow, costa gently curved 

 throughout apex obtusely pointed, termen gently concave, oblique. 

 Pale ochreous, terminal third ochreous whitish, ground color ob- 

 scured by a fine fuscous marbling. Anterior half of costa with 

 numerous, equidistant small dark strigulae, oblique and slightly 

 curved; posterior half of costa dark fuscous, with four pairs of ochre- 

 ous- whitish slender marks; basal patch well defined, with edge strongly 

 prominent in middle to 1/3 of wing, upper half of this edge convex, 

 with three regular scallops, lower half concave; this patch rather 

 bright tawny, transversely strigulated by dark brown fine undulate 

 strigulae, running more or less parallel to complicated edge of patch; 

 transverse fuscia formed by an obliquely clavate somewhat suffused 

 dark fuscous spot from middle of costa, stalk darker, on costa; and 

 by a large subquadrate, somewhat irregular patch on 3rd fourth of 

 dorsum; upper edge of this patch slightly concave, almost touching 

 costal spot, posterior edge well defined, irregular, with a process 

 below middle; upper posterior angle of patch slightly produced ob- 

 liquely upwards as a small tooth; an elongate wedge-shaped fuscous- 

 grey spot with base extending over lower half of termen, top pointed, 

 reaching about middle of vein 8; this spot narrowly edged pale ochre- 

 ous. Cilia (imperfect) sordid pale ochreous, with a fuscous subbasal 

 band.
