the series of olive-black sjiots near aual angle is continued towards costal margin, 

 these spots forming a snbniiirgiiial band which is more distinct behind than in front ; 

 between this band and the discal one are two lines ; the interspaces between these 

 lines and bauds grey behind, blackish in front. 



U)ifh'rs/</i' bnthsh day-colour, paler at base, darker distaily ; lines on disc as 

 in anc/iemolits, distal marginal area of forewing as in that species, rather broader 

 behind. 



c?. Sexnal armature of the safellitia-type. Tenth tergite narrowed towards 

 end, but not sliarply pointed (PI. XLIV. f. 4). Olasper hairy on inner surface, but 

 there is no patch of bristles ; harpe as in satellitia licaon, but the hook shorter. 

 Penis-sheath very slender, apical pirocess thin, acutely pointed. 



Early stages not known.

cj?. Similar to anchcmolus in ajipearance : body and wings not red below. 

 Abdomen above without distinct mesial line of pale spots. White spot on first 

 segment of piilpus narrower and longer than in uncliemolus ; white line behind eye 

 conspicuous ; external surface of foretibia clayish grey. 



Wings, iipperside. Forewing more glossy grey than in anclit'inohis ; three 



parallel and oblique lines in basal area, the third ending at inner upper corner 

 of rhombiform jatcli, all tliree s/nu(///f from costal margin to (SM'); no stigma ; 

 discal lines 1 and 2 distinct between M' and (SM'), tiie first reaching rhombiform 

 patch at upper outer corner, j)osterior jiart of lines 3 and 4 weak, obsolete behind 

 M' ; portions C — R^ of discal lines more distal at R' than in satellitia, anchemolus, 

 triangulum, etc. ; oblique shadowy band broad, extended to distal margin, where it 

 is broader than in auclienwlus ; snbajiical costal jiatch large ; patch near hinder 

 angle broader than in the allied species, rounded triangular, not concave outwardly, 

 extending a little before M=, but this portion not narrowed to a more or less rounded 

 sjiot as in most species ; hinder area from base to rhombiform patch dark as in 



anc/iemolus ; fringe of hinder margin huffish, less extended than in uncliemolus. 



Hindwing : broader tliaii in ancliemolntt ; jiale basi-discal area more yellowish than 

 in the sjiecies just mentioned, black outer area far more extended, broadly con- 

 nected with the square discal posterior patcii ; anal area greyish, including a 

 single black spot, whicli is seldom absent, and often traces of others ; no stigma. 



Unilersii/e wood-brown, with a clayish shade; forew'ing somewhat russet at 

 distal marginal band.
