 black spots on the costa of the fore wings, one joining the 

 discal spot ; on the hind wings one small spot in the middle 

 and one on the dorsal margin ; hind margins crenulated, and 

 clouded with black. 



Antennas of the male pectinated with short, solid, ciliated 

 teeth which do not reach the tip, black ; palpi small, droop-
