Transverse posterior line, distinct, black, regularly sinuate or 
S-shaped, preceded on the disc by a black discal dash, and followed 
rather broadly inferiorly, by a black powdery shade. Costa dotted 
with black. Sub-terminally are one or two greenish olivaceous 
transverse shade bands. Sub-terminal line, geminate, narrow, 
blackish, powdery, twice very broadly marked opposite the dise. 
Terminally, the wing is shaded with olivaceous and, inferiorly, with 
powdery blackish on the interspaces. A very distinct and neat 
series of black points arranged in pairs at the extremity of the 
nervules. Fringes, greyish. Under surface, cinereous; “veins” 
somewhat darker marked; no markings, except a discal dot, and 
that the thinness of the squamation allows some of the markings 
of the upper surface to be perceived. 
Posterior wings, pale cinereous; a darker terminal shade, within 
which are traces of two cinereous lines; a slight discal dot on 
the cross vein. Beneath, clear pale cinereous; a distinct discal 
dot on the cross vein; outside of disc are traces of two cinereous 
bands, the outer of which is indicated by darker scales on the 
nervules; terminally, shaded with darker cinereous. 
2. Resembles the ¢ ; the secondaries are darker cinereous and 
nearly unicolorous ; a narrow terminal dark line.
