4 9 and 1 i. — Fore wings subfalcate (aiitenuir wanting); palpi of 

 moderate length. ViwU and wings jjalc ochreous-gray, with a nu)re luteous 

 tinge than in any other species known to me, dusted over with dark specks. 

 Fore wings witii two well-marked pale-ochreous lines of equal width: the 

 inner straight, often fiuling out before reaciiing the costa ; the outer either 

 straight or slightly sinuous, being in one specimen curved outward rather 

 suddenly in the tinst median space, or swelling out gradually above it. Fringe 

 on both wings concolorous with the wings. Hind wings dusted conspicuously 

 with black, as in the anterior pair; a dark discal dot. The discal dot on the 

 anterior wings forming a black ringlet centered with white. Beneath, a litth; 

 j)aler than above, with finer black speck.s. The outer yt^llowish line is faintly 

 reproduced. Both wings are distinctly speckled with black scales; the discal 

 spot is on the fore wings, represented l)y a large diffuse collection of black 

 scales, with a much smaller one on the hind wings. Abdomen of male rather 

 long and slender. Legs with tlu' hind tibia- swollen: hind tarsi half as long 

 as the tibiae.

This species may l>e distinguished from /-•. nepluia by the lighter, more 

 clay-yellow (luteou.s) wings, the larger discal ringlets, the i)roa<l, pale, ochre- 

 ous, nearly straight, extradiscal line, by the want of any marginal black dots, 

 the absence of any dark shade along the e.xtradiscal line. Midway between 

 the extradiscal line and the edge of the wing are three obscure dark patches. 

 Beneath, the wings are paler than above, but with no decided ochreous tinge. 

 I cannot identify it with any of M. Gnenc^e's species.
