Differs from the tvpe in its smaller size and paler colo ir, the 

 secondaries being distinctly whitish ; the anteniedial and postmedial 

 lines and the reniform stigma are similar to these characters in the 

 type, but the submarginal line is wavy rather than undulated. 

 The pectination of the male antennae is ratlier finer than in the type.
