white ; very faintly tinged with ochreous, abdominal segments 
edged with dull-reddish, hardly perceptible. Legs light-fuscous. 
Forewings moderate, elongate ; costa gently arched, apex obtuse, 
hindmargin obliquely rounded ; shining white, faintly ochreous- 
tinged, without markings ; cilia shining snow-white. Hindwings 
pale-grey ; cilia as in forewings. Between orectis, Meyr., and 
leucophanes, Lower. From the former it differs in absence of 
orange costal edge, &c. ; and from the latter by the absence of 
blackish costal edge, color of hindwings, aud shape of forewings. 
The faint ochreous tinge is not very noticeable ; veins four and 
five of the forewings are very closely approximated at base ; the 
neuration is otherwise normal. 
One specimen, ‘‘ Coomooboolaroo,” Queensland (Coll. Barnard).
