c? ? . Distal margin of forewing deeply sinuate, apex more produced tlian in 

 the other s])ecies; angle Ii- more acute in cS S than in most ? ? ; interspace between 

 antemedian and discal lines gi'een like upperside of liead and thorax, contrastinn- 



with the rest of the wing. Hindwing narrow, costal margin rather obviously 



dilated near base. 



(?. Tenth tergite rather sliort and broad, not much longer tlmn the sternite, 

 sinuate ; sternite acuminate. C'lasper with numerous rather small friction-scales ; 

 harpe nearly as in do/icrfi/i in lateral aspect, loss curved. Penis-sheath : the two 

 processes of nearly the same width, the left much longer than the right, both 

 dentate, and situated upon a short common stem as in Gigniifx' opal pus m/ralj/7/.s, 

 i.e., the mesial a^iical part of the sheath narrowed and produced distad before giving 

 otf the two processes. 



Early stages not known.

S ? . Easily recognised by the semitranspareut discal spot SC' — W of the 

 forewing which stands midway between outer margin and base of R' and is 

 generally followed by a smaller whitish spot ; and by the broad pale ochi'aceons- 



rufous band of the hindwing, which nearly reaches costal margin. Forewing 



angulate at H-, not quite so deeply sinuate as in hasiris. The <S is paler than the 

 ?, and has mostly a broader band to the hindwing. In some cases the brown 

 colour of the hindwing above is much reduced. 



{?. Tenth tergite midway between those of mnlaijaiia (PI. XLIV. f. ~5) and 

 dohertiji (PI. XLIV. f. 27), sinuate ; sternite curving upwards, acuminate. Clasj)er 

 with numerous rather small friction-scales ; harpe about as long as in dohcrti/i 

 (PI. XL. f. 3), twisted and somewhat spatnlate. Right and left processes of 

 penis-sheath of nearly the same width, broader than in dohert;/!.
