 darker grey clouds ; a slightly paler patch below middle of margin ; marginal spots 

 large, blackish ; fringe pale grey. 



Hindicing : with diifnse double autemedian and postmedian dark grey lines, 

 the latter insinuate in cell and projecting on veins 3 and 4, not parallel to inner 

 lines ; the rest as in forewing ; cell-spots of both wings dark grey.

 line wavy, pale, preceded from costa to vein o by a curved black shade of luuules 

 and followed by a dark shade between (i and 4, the apex being left pale like the
