 whitish. Abdomen whitish tinged with green ; laterally 

 chiefly dark-fuscous. Forewings more elongate-triangular ; 

 a snow-white basal costal spot ; base dark green to J ; 

 . central area white with dark-green blotches on mid-costa

Though very different I think these will prove to be 

 sexes.
