1 9. — Vertex and front very full. Wings smaller than usual in pr(i|)or- 

 tioii to the rest of the hody ; t()i'e wings slightly dentate: hind wings acutely 

 and quite resjularh' dentate, Bo(l\' and winifs whitish-ijrav. Forr; wino;s 

 with two distinct, heavy, black lines, the inner very near the base of thewinir, 

 regularly curved, a little pointed on the eosta, ()uter line bent at riiiiit 

 angles on the basal third of tiie first median vein, the line thence goinir straialit 

 to the costa, though zigzag in its course; from the rectangular bend, the line 

 follows a course sul)parallel to the median line, where it again tunis rect- 

 angularly, ending on the middle of the inner edge of the wing. An inner 

 reddisli-brown line is parallel and near it below the median vein, and above 

 passes just within the faint discal dot. Beyond this line, the wing is .speckled 

 with linear transverse strigae ; no brown s'hade. A scalloped, marginal, dis- 

 tinct, black line. Hind wings as the anterior pair, thickly dusted, the speckles 

 becoming linear beyond the single median black line, which is distinctly l)ent 

 outward and scalloped between the bend and tiie costa. The marginal .scal- 

 lo[)ed line distinct. Fringe pale gray. Scallops regular, very espial in size; in 

 this respect the species diflfers from HeDiernpIiila itn/tn/id, in which they are 

 very unecpial, there being one deep-rounded one in the middle ol' the wing. 

 Beneath, just as above, with the outei' Hue; taintly reproduced: no discal spots, 

 and the mai"ginal line tiiinl. Legs and alxlomen speckled like the willies.
