122. Cataclysta trilinealis, n. s. 



Fore wings with a pale ground, which is almost entirely suifused 

 with brown atoms and fulvous shading, by which all the usual 

 markings are more or less lost. We can discern a central dark 

 fascia through both wings ; a yellow streak along the hind margin 

 preceded by a leaden streak, and that again by another tawny one ; 

 a tawny spot at the anal angle. In the hind wings, before the 

 marginal row of steel spots, are three curved parallel black lines, 

 and the centre of the wing is sprinkled with lustrous scales. 

 Expanse of wings, 16 mm.
