 western specimens of this ; the palpus is more washed with vinaceous, except a 

 sharply marked white line on the first segment along the eye ; the discal lines 

 1 and 2 of the forewing above are merged together in a band which is anteriorly 

 more prominent than in hoerhnriae, the interspaces following are jjaler, line 5 is 

 again heavier ; there is no distinct clayish subanal patch on the hindwing ; the 

 base of the latter often clayish brown. 



c?. Tenth tergite shari)ly sinuate as in echeclus, the lobes rather shorter than in 

 hoevhatiae ; sternite suddenly narrowed to a sharp hook (PI. LA'III. f, L'N). 

 Process of harpe (PI. LII. £ 28) short, rounded, with a short subterminal tooth 

 nearly as in ecliedus ; a tnft of scales as in echeclus. Penis-funnel short, triangular ; 

 ]icnis-shoatli nearly as in echecl'/s, to 3 teeth on the right side, and a row of teeth
