 near the base of the long footstalk, which bears the third and 

 fourth branches, just beyond the cell ; upper radial vem emi ted 

 from the anterior angle, and lower radial from the postenor angle 

 of the cell; disco-cellular veinlet angulated; the three median 

 branches well separated from each other at their origins ; secondaries 

 with the costal margin nearly straight, outer margm slightly 

 arched, abdominal margin short and nearly straight ; costa and 

 subcostal veins contiguous to basal fourth, where they coalesce, 

 but separate again just before the middle of the wmg the costal vein 

 forming a long furca to apex and the subcostal continuing stiaight 

 on to the outer margin ; disco-cellular veinlet absent, the cell con- 

 sequently open, and the radial emitted as a fourth median branch 

 palpi moderately long, directed forwards so as to show almost then 

 entire length in front of the head; antennae short, slender, monih- 

 form, finely penicillated ; thorax robust, projecting well m front of 

 the wings; tegute large, extending to beyond the mesothorax; 

 legs thick (both legs and abdomen broken short oif m the type).

 Primaries above rust-red ; the base, an externally angulated band 

 across the basal third, a small spot near the base of the lower 

 radial interspace, a large apical costal spot, separated by a curved 

 stripe of the ground colour from an internally somewhat conical 

 external border (the centre of which is divided again by a forked 

 line of the ground colour) snow-white; secondaries snow-white 

 with a large subbasal interno-median spot, a broad discal band 

 with arched outer edge and a small oblique spot near the nnddle o 

 the outer margin, rust-red ; antenna, dark ferruginous banded wit 

 white; body snow-white, collar with a ferruginous spot on each 

 side thorax with darker red-brown scales at the sides; primaries
