One of (he best-marked species of the genus. It is separated from the 

 others by the long wings, short obtuse palpi, the white head and thorax, and 

 the deep-russet or tan-brown costal edge of the fore wings, interrupted by 

 white spots, and contrasting with the white surface of the wing; and by the 

 multilineated hind wings.

4 (? , 2 9 . — In this pretty species, the wings are much longer than usual ; 

 the outer edge being very oblique, the head very prominent, the prothorax l)eing 

 rather long, and the palpi rather short, very broad, passing beyond the front 

 by a distance equal to that between the base of the antennse; while, in the 

 species previously described, the palpi surpass the front by a distance ecpial to 

 the lengtJi of the head itself They are black, with a few white scales along 

 the middle of the side; front edge of front blackish; front itself and vertex 

 whitish; thorax whitish, with a few l)]ack scales. Fore wings pale-gray. Base 

 of costu dark tan-brown, t(>rminating al)ruptly in a sliglitly-curved black line, 

 ending in the middle of the median space ; costa throughout dark reddish- 

 brown, interrupted by four white spaces. Just before the middle of the wing 

 is an obliijue blackish band, directed outward and passing l)clow the subcostal 

 vein. Just above the raised diseal dot is a square, dark-reddish, costal patch, 

 succeeded by two white, short lines. Half-way between these and the apex 

 are two twin white costal bands, with a broad, dark-red patch on each side. 

 Beyond is a squarish, reddish-brown i)atch, and the extreme apex is gray. 

 The i)asc of the wing below the costa is quite clear, with .-scattered dark 

 scales, and a black linear spot on the end of tlie median vein at the origin of 

 its branches. From this spot, a linear reddish line extends to the diseal dot,
