Ochreous : thorax brownish above ; anterior wings rather short, somewhat 

 acute at the apex, pubescent, yellowish-ochreous, the nervures and extreme

 the apex deeply notched. 

 Not uncommon, during tlie middle of tlie Kummer, within the 



metropolitan district, but much more abundant in the west of 



England, about Tavistock and Ashburton.
