Primaries above ochreoiis, with three browii-edged and 

 speckled ash-grey patches ; one oblong at base of costal 

 border, the second pyriform at apex, the third almost 

 B-shaped, near external angle ; a small rounded disco-

 at basal third of submedian vein, a grey dot above it on 

 the median vein; four increasing white-pupilled blackish 

 dots between the two external patches ; secondaries stra- 

 mineous, with an oblique ash-coloured patch, edged in 

 front and behind with brown, at anal angle ; body 

 stramineous ; head whitish ; under surface ochreous, 

 indistinctly flecked with darker dots ; primaries with the

Allied to the " Hyperythra'' s?/ctan« of Walker, from 

 Venezuela, and not unlike Heterolocha xanthiaria of

This species, if rightly determined, has a second, but 

 indistinct, oblique angular line from the costa to the 

 inner margin, and below the cell, almost parallel to the 

 arched discal line mentioned by M. Blanchard ; though 

 his description of it, "una linea transversal poco 

 sinuada," is hardly characteristic.
