Male. Antennae flattened, slightly laminate above and minutely ciliated below. Palpi 

 thickly sealed and slightly upturned, the third joint not visible. Abdomen with lateral tufts, 

 the tuft on the penultimate segment largest ; the terminal segment long, with a large anal 

 tuft. Fore wing broad ; the inner margin distorted and crimped near the base, and bearing 

 on the underside a tuft of long hairs ; the second subcostal anastomosing with the first and 

 then with the third; the upper radial from the upper angle of the cell, the lower from the 

 middle of the diseoeellulars ; the two medians from near the end of the cell, one from before 

 the end ; the submedian slightly bent round the tuft of hairs. Hind wing rather narrow, the 

 apex and outer margin rounded, the costa produced into a lobe near the base ; the costal 

 nervure coming off from the subcostal near the base and curving up to the outer part of the 

 lobe, thus losing its Larent id character; the two subcostals from the end of the cell; the 

 radial from the middle of the diseoeellulars ; two medians from near the lower angle of cell, 

 one from before the end ; a submedian nervure. 



Female with the hind wing of the normal shape, and the costal nervure anastomosing
