The specimen figured is the type lent to ns by Dr. Holland. 



The distally sharply defined oblii^ue baud of the forewing, together with 

 the dentate distal edges of the wing, enable one to distinguish this species easily 

 from sardanux, while it can be differentiated at a glance from zantus by the acute 

 apex of the forewing, the more evenly dentate distal margin, the darker under 

 surface, etc.
