" This species appears to have some affinity to the 

 ^geriidre." 



Type, 3^ , B. M. 



A single specimen in the British Museum from North 

 India, not in sufficiently good condition for description, 

 is closely allied to impactella. It has a very faint 

 indication of two dorsal yellowish spots on its uni- 

 colorous brownish fore wings. The purple band on the 

 yellow abdomen is wider than in impactella, and stretches 

 farther downwards.
