58 ILLUSTRATIONS OF UNFIGURED LEPIDOPTERA. 



The entire upper side of both wings is dark brown. In a very strong light 

 there is some lustre in basal areas. The hind margins have a white interspacial 

 border, quite prominent. 



Under side of fore wing light brown, much lighter than upper surface. The 

 prominent marking is abroad band of darker shade crossing centre of wing and 

 extending across lower wing also. The basal area is light brown. A soft dark 

 brown line or band crosses centre of discoidal space, extending to inner margin, 

 but nearer base after leaving discoidal space and more indistinct. The end of 

 discoidal space is marked by a fine thread of the same color. Running from 

 costa, one-quarter inch outside from discoidal space, is a line of dark brown 

 ending at submedian nervure. The area between this line and discoidal space 

 is darker than ground color, being darkest at the line and shading to lighter 

 baseward. Outside of this line, is an area of brighter brown, bordered one- 

 quarter inch inside of hind margin by a jagged dark thread. Through the 

 centre of this area, from costa to inner margin, is a series of six interspacial 

 white dots surrounded by dark brown. The hind margin is bordered by a 

 white thread. 



The under side of hind wing is of same ground color as fore wing, the 

 band of fore wing being somewhat more prominent. The inner edge of this 

 band is bordered by a dark line running from costa, one-third inch from base, 

 and ending near centre of inner margin. The line bordering outer edge extends 

 from centre of costa to end of discoidal space, turning there toward inner 

 margin, and ending one-third inch above anal angle. The outer portion of the 

 wing duplicates the fore wing except that the spots are only five in number and 

 are much more prominent.
