ground-colour from a similarly interrupted blackish patch on 

 its lower outer edge ; between this fascia and the apex of the 

 wing there is a brown spot on the costa. Secondaries have 

 a dusky oblique line, which appears to be a continuation of 

 the second one of primaries ; beyond the blackish discal dot 

 there is a blackish patch, interrupted by the median nervules 

 and transversely by a slightly wavy line, which is dusky 

 above and below the patch, but appears to be of the ground- 

 colour in passing through it. Fringes pale at their base, 

 darker outwardly, and preceded by a dusky lunulated line. 

 Under surface fuscous, variegated with silvery white and 

 suffused with ferruginous on apical area of primaries and sub- 

 marginal area of secondaries ; the basal area of each wing 

 is also irrorated with silvery white.
