BOARMIDJE—ENNOMOS. n 



smooth, proportionately rather slender, pale ochreous ; lateral 

 tufts minute ; anal tuft well developed. Fore wings some- 

 what broad ; costa very faintly arched ; apex angulated, 

 rather pointed ; hind margin distinctly crenulated, also pro- 

 vided with a much larger projection just above the middle, 

 beneath this slightly hollowed but less so than in our other 

 species of the genus; anal angle rather squared; dorsal 

 margin rounded and ciliated with long, soft scales ; colour 

 pale fulvous or pale orange-yellow ; first line slender, red- 

 brown or dull purple-brown, curved outwardly, and bent 

 back toward the base in a blunt angle at the subcostal 

 nervure ; second line placed rather far back, fully curved or 

 sometimes a little sinuous, of the same colour as the first, and 

 strongly marked on the costa ; the hind-marginal area beyond 

 this line is commonly clouded from it with some shade of 

 fulvous or tawny-brown ; discal spot obscure, purple-brown; 

 cilia also of this colour, but tipped with white between the 

 crenulations. Hind wings broad, rounded, but strongly 

 crenulated behind, the middle point much larger and longer 

 than the rest ; colour paler orange-yellow, still paler toward 

 the base; in the middle is a slender obscure transverse 

 purple-brown line ; cilia tawny, tipped in the hollows with 

 white. Female much stouter in the abdomen; antenna 

 simple; crenulations and projections of the wings rather 

 more pronounced ; pale straw-yellow or whitish-ochreous, 

 dusted with tawny scales, and sometimes the nervures 

 indicated in the same ; hind wings also paler, but the hind 

 margin edged with tawny ; markings similar. 



Underside of the fore wings dull ochreous, dusted along 

 the costa with tawny, and the apical area nearly filled with 

 the same; discal spot and second line distinct, tawny. 

 Hind wings dull ochreous; central spot red-brown, and 

 before it a slender purplish transverse line ; from this to the 

 hind margin clouded nearly all over with pale purple ; 

 cilia all tawny. Body and legs reddish-yellow, front tibiae 

 paler.
