 Costa, apex, hind, and inner margins black. Cell, areas 2 and 

 lb, semitransparent, rather thinly powdered with black. The 

 cell at base and extremity tinged with red. Area 2 occupied 

 by a large semitransparent spot dusted with red, sometimes 

 fading outwardly to creamy white. Base of area lb dusted 

 with red and near margin a large fairly well-defined spot also 

 dusted with red. Beyond cell a subapical bar of three elongated
