 irregular brown bands, which contain some white dots ; first angular, ob- 

 lique, covering the transverse veins ; second near the tip, broader than the 

 first; cubital and prsebrachial veins slightly diverging between the 

 transverse veins, hardly diverging from the discal transverse to the 

 border ; discal transverse almost straight and upright, parted by less 

 than its length from the prsebrachial transverse, and by nearly half its 

 length from the border. Legs tawny. Fern. Oviduct short, flat, ob-
