brown, preceded by a paler patch marked with undulating fulvous- 
brown lines ; the hind-angle of the wing being much dotted with dif- 
ferent shades of fulvons and brown. The hind-wings have a large 
sulphur-white patch occupying the base of the wings, except the 
extreme base, which is pink. The remainder is brown, varied with 
minute fulvous spots, the anal angle being more mottled. 
On the underside the wings are paler and richer coloured, more 
decidedly mottled ; the fore-wings having the base suffused with pink. 
The veins are fulvous. 
The antennz are but slightly pectinated. 
The body is fulvous-brown, the thoracic portion tinged with pink.

A single specimen only of this insect exists in the British Museum, 
having the wings so completely denuded of scales, except at the base, 
that it is impossible to give a detailed charater ; their outline is how- 
ever entire. The anterior ones are subfalcate, and the hind ones are 
denticulated along the outer margin, the tooth at the extremity of 
the middle branch of the median vein being the most acute. All that 
remains of the colouring of the fore-wings is a reddish-fulvous buff, 
which seems indeed to have extended all over these wings, as well as 
over the hind-wings, which are suffused with pink on the upper side 
towards the anterior margin. On the under side the wings are co- 
loured as above; the fore-wings are also suffused with pink along the 
posterior margin at the base, and they, as well as the hind-wings, have 
the anterior margin somewhat streaked transversely with brown. I can 
discern no trace of eyes in the middle of the wings. The body both 
above and below is fulvous brown, as are also the antennee and legs. 
The basal joint of the antennze is clothed beneath with a thick 
mass of hairs ; each is furnished with eighty rays, each of the twenty 
joints succeeding the basal one emitting four rays, one close at the 
base and one close at the apex on each side, the inside of the two on 
each side beg furnished with fine hairs, the tips of which come in 
contact with each other. The thirteen terminal joints are destitute 
of rays. The palpi are quite distinct, but scarcely extend beyond the 
hairs of the face.
