this line; hindmarginal line waved: black; cilia ashy grey- 
whitish: base whiter, with black spots at extremities of veins. 
Hindwings rounded ; slightly sinuate beneath apex and at anal 
angle; w shitish ; Hae black linear discal dot; a blackish submarginal 
line ; ; a broad black hindmarginal band, broader at apex: cilia 
white, with black dots at extremities of veins. 
Female, 40to45mm. Differs only from male in having first line 
edged anteriorly with whitish ; the second one almost. obsolete, 
and the third more distinctly edged with whitish. The reddish- 
ochreous suffusions are almost obliterated, and the hindmarginal 
bands of the hindwings are much paler. 
Blackwood ; twenty-five specimens early in May and June, 
beaten from the so-called stringybark. The insects frequent only 
the tallest trees, and are very sluggish, and generally fall straight 
to the ground when beaten out.

pink, minutely irrorated with slaty-fuscous, more especially on 
middle of disc and middle of inner margin, where it tends to form 
indistinct patches ; costal edge narrowly ochreous-whitish from 
base to two-thirds, attenuated posteriorly ; an ochreous-white 
straight streak running from fold at two-thirds to anal angle, 
attenuated anteriorly; inner margin edged with ochreous-whitish

Nearest. Palp. eonephella, Meyrick, and Palp. theophila, 
Meyrick ; but differs from both by the fuscous hindwings. The 
fold of the forewings is very strongly produced in the species 
described.
