Body robust : wings elongate, with a transverse bar of orange colour. 

 Head transverse, clothed with short hairs. 



Eyes large, naked. 



AntenncB rather less than three fifths of the length of the fore wings, .slender; articulations indistinct, not 

 annulated with white ; terminated by a long, graduallj' formed, moderately robust club. 



Labial Palpi slender, short, elevated obliquely to more than one third of the height of the eye, scarcely extending 

 in front bej'ond the hairs of the face, much curved at the base, and clothed beneath at the base with short 

 hairs ; the last joint minute and conical. 

 Thorax robust, clothed with short hairs at the sides. 



Fore Wings elongate, subtriangular. Costal margin slightly arched ; apical portion more strongly curved ; 

 apical angle obtuse. Apical margin more than two thirds of the length of the costal, slightly convex. Inner 

 margin not more than two thirds of the length of the apical. Postcostal vein with three branches : the first 

 arising before the anterior extremity of the discoidal cell ; the second at a considerable distance beyond the 

 cell ; and the third at about the same distance beyond the second as the second is from the cell. Upper disco- 

 cellular vein obsolete : middle one arising at a short distance beyond the cell, its apex directed towards the 

 base of the wing : outer disco-cellular equally slender, curved near its base, its lower end directed outwai'ds, 

 rather longer than the middle disco-cellular, and uniting with the third branch of the median vein at a short 

 distance beyond its origin.

 margin forming a slight groove for the abdomen. Costal vein extending to about two thirds of the costa.
