joint, terminal joint short, exposed ; brownish ochreous. 

 Head and thorax brownish ochreous. Fore wings deep 

 reddish ochreous, ahnost red-brown, with shining greyish 

 chalybeous fascije; the first near the base, occupying the 

 basal portion of the costa, is slightly angulated outwards on 

 the fold ; the second, at one-third, is slightly curved out- 

 wards and readies the dorsum before the middle ; the third, 

 from beyond the middle of the costa, curving outwards is 

 interrupted at the lower edge of the cell, but is continued 

 from a point opposite to and before its lower extremity to the 

 dorsum beyond the middle ; the last, from the costa before 

 the apex to the tornus, is sometimes interrupted and deflected 

 at a point below the middle of the termen ; a few shining 

 greyish chalybeous scales at the apex ; cilia brownish 

 oclireous. E.vp. al. lo mm. Hind wings dark greyish fus-

Bab. Japan {Fryer, 1886). Three specimens. 



In the male type the third fascia is continued to the tornus, 

 a short half-fascia from behind the middle of the dorsum 

 lying on its inner side ; moreover the fourth fascia is not 

 interrupted, but ends on the termen above the tornus. The 

 species therefore seems to be somewhat variable.

Antennce whitish ochreous, annulated with brown. Palp)\

 //me? whitish ochreous. Thorax ^Yty\&\\ brown. Fore wings 

 whitish ochreous, much overspread with greyish brown, which 

 occupies the whole of the base and is extended outwards 

 above the fold reaching to below the middle of a central 

 oblique greyish brown fascia from before the middle of the 

 costa to the outer half of the dorsum ; this fascia is more or 

 less blended on its outer side with a third fasciaform shade 

 from the costa before the apex to the tornus ; on the dark 

 shading are streaks and patches of shining leaden grey, with 

 several tufts of raised black scales, two on the outer edge of 

 the basal patch, one above the other below the fold, five or 

 six along the inner edge of the central fascia, and a sinuous
