 and half of secondaries clouded with purplish brown, except 

 on the outer margin of the latter. 



Pi'imaries have a velvety black subbasal band transversely 

 intersected by a pale sinuous line ; on the inner margin 

 towards the boundary of tlie diaphanous area there is a slightly 

 oblique velvety-black bar, this is twice interrupted; there are 

 some pale brown marks on costa before apex and on outer 

 margin below apex ; submarginal band sinuous, pale brown, 

 bordered inwardly with dusky, but suffused below the costal 

 portion. Secondaries irrorated with blackish ; a brown cloud 

 represents a diffuse oblique band terminating in a black 

 mark just before abdominal margin ; discal spot black ; sub- 

 marginal band pale, but not clearly defined. Under surface : 

 basal portion of the wings whity brown, outer portion (except 

 at apex of primaries and upper angle of secondaries) ferrugi-
