 verse anterior lines fine and distinct, transverse posterior line produced outwardly in a single

 side towards ba.se of wing with a dai'k heavy line, but the sides towards the costal and interior 

 margins have no defined boundary ; sub-reniform small, M'hite and closed ; sub-terminal band

 with the yellow at base of wings; fringes blackish, except at apex, where they are white. 



Under surface pale yellow, darkest near base ; very broad uninterrupted marginal and 

 narrow median bauds ; no indication of sub-basal of primaries. 



The description and figure were taken from an example captured at Proviilenco, 11. I.,
