fore transverse band ; a pale ochreous-yellow streak along fold 

 from transverse band to anal angle, shortly dilated above beyond 

 middle, beneath anteriorly margined with a silvery-white streak ; 

 branches of submedian vein posteriorly defined with dark fus-

 dark fuscous ; cilia grey- whitish, with three irregular darker 

 parting-lines. Hindvvings whitish-grey, hindmarginal line dark 

 fuscous ; cilia whitish, with dark grey parting-line near base.

 streaks towards inner margin. Several <^s from Melbourne and 

 Adelaide.
