Neuration : forewings, 12 veins, all separate ; 8 and 9 approximate at 

 base ; an internal vein from 5 to beyond 1 1 ; I furcate at base ; hindwings, 

 8 veins, all separate ; 4 and 5, as also 6 and 7, somewhat approximate at 

 base ; 2 remote from 3 on margin ; an internal vein from between 5 and 6 

 to base ; i a with a short fork at base. 



Allied to Themiscyra, Wkr., but differing in the palpi being more 

 recurved and more closely appressed to the face, and in the shorter 

 terminal joint. In the hindwings veins 4 and 5 are separate, but 5 is bent 

 over towards 4 at its origin ; in Themiscyra veins 4 and 5 are stalked.
