 at middle of cell; two spots at end of cell and one beyond cell con- 

 fluent; a postmedial series of dark brown lunular spots, followed

 of inner margin to termen between veins 5 and 6 ; a subterminal line 

 of brown spots between the veins ; a terminal row of smaller spots ; 

 outer half of inner margin brown; cilia buff with brown spots 

 between the veins. Hind-wings; upper half to median nervure
