Transverse posterior line, distinct, black, regularly sinuate or 

 S-shaped, preceded on the disc by a black discal dash, and followed 

 rather broadly inferiorly, by a black powdery shade. Costa dotted 

 with black. Sub-terminally are one or two greenish olivaceous 

 transverse shade bands. Sub-terminal line, geminate, narrow, 

 blackish, powdery, twice very broadly marked opposite the disc. 

 Terminally, the wing is shaded with olivaceous and, inferiorly, with 

 powdery blackish on the interspaces. A very distinct and neat 

 series of black points arranged in pairs at the extremity of the 

 nervules. Fringes, greyish. Under surface, cinereous; "veins" 

 somewhat darker marked ; no markings, except a discal dot, and 

 that the thinness of the squamation allows some of the markings 

 of the upper surface to be perceived. 



Posterior wings, pale cinereous ; a darker terminal shade, within 

 which are traces of two cinereous lines; a slight discal dot on 

 the cross vein. Beneath, clear pale cinereous ; a distinct discal 

 dot on the cross vein ; outside of disc are traces of two cinereous 

 bands, the outer of which is indicated by darker scales on the 

 nervules ; terminally, shaded with darker cinereous. 



2 . Resembles the $ ; the secondaries are darker cinereous and 

 nearly unicolorous ; a narrow terminal dark line.
