$ Glistening darh-imrple ; a hlach hind-marginal line ; cilia in 

 fore-iving darh-grey except at posterior angle, where it is wldtc, — in hind- 

 wing j;a/c7-, hccoming white near anal angle ; tufts of liair at ends of 

 second and first median uervules, and submedian nervure thin, rather 

 long, dusky at base, but thence white. Under side. — Pale grcyish- 

 hrown, unth slightly darker, on both sides white-edged, tra7isverse striae. 

 Fore-wing : terminal disco-cellular stria broad, beginning on first sub- 

 costal uervule ; ordinary discal stria abruptly broken on third and 

 first median nervules into three nearly equal portions, of wliich the 

 uppermost is farthest, and the lowest (iu a line with terminal disco- 

 cellular stria) nearest to base ; a nearly straight submarginal stria, the 

 white inner edge of which touches outer edge of second division of 

 discal stria on first median nervule ; a hind-marginal white line ; costa 

 edged with white at base, with ochrey-yellow (indistinctly) elsewhere ; 

 a broad stria from costal to submedian nervure, curved inward infe- 

 riorly, crossing middle of discoidal cell ; in cell, at base, a short white 

 longitudinal line curving upward at extremity. Hind-wing : terminal 

 disco-cellular stria broad, well-marked ; discal stria very irregular, com- 

 mencing with a costal darker and sub-ocellate spot before the succeed- 

 ing portion, narrowed in its lower part, and from submedian nervure 

 recurved (and with a central line of white) to inner margin about 

 middle ; submarginal stria more irregular than in fore-wing, especially 

 its inner white edge, which inferiorly is recurved (like discal stria) to 

 inner margin ; hind-marginal white line as in fore-wing ; between it
