86 ILLUSTRATIONS OF UNFIGURED LEPIDOPTERA. 



Under side of fore wing grayish bronze. Costa grayish bronze. From point of 

 apex, and extending down to second median nervule, one-eighth inch within 

 the margin, is a jagged line of dark bronze. At the second median nervule it 

 suffuses and broadens out to the margin, extending as a marginal border to 

 lower angle. Within this the area to top of discoidal space is grayish bronze, 

 broadening out below and covering the lower interspaces entirely up to 

 median nervure. The upper portion of this area is slightly dusted with silvery 

 scales. In the interspace below the fifth subcostal nervule is a small circular 

 dark brown spot with a white dot at centre, situated just inside the jagged line 

 above mentioned. In interspace, between the median nervules, there is another, 

 and also in interspace above submedian nervure, similarly situated, is a larger 

 circular spot of dark brown, but without the central white spot. The discoidal . 

 space is grayish, but darker than rest of wing, and suffuses into the adjoining 

 interspaces. 



The lower side of hind wing has a hind marginal border of dark brown 

 about one-eighth inch wide, following the dentated contour of the margin. 

 Within this, is an area of grayish bronze corresponding in color to the same area 

 in fore wing and covering outer half of wing. In each interspace is a prominent 

 dark brown spot with a white dot at centre, the upper three being on the basal 

 side of this grayish bronze area, while the lower ones are in the centre of it. 

 Within this area, towards base, is a space of silvery white with ill-defined edges, 

 extending from the costa (just within apex) to a point somewhat above anal 

 angle. There is a jagged dark brown line from the end of discoidal space 

 nearly to inner margin. The basal area is dark brown dusted with silvery 

 scales. 



Described from nine specimens in my collection. One specimen, 

 the only one found in any American or English collection, is in the 

 Hewitson collection, but without name.
