 about the middle, of these the strongest are on the cell and 

 just below the fold ; the shading on the terminal and apical 

 area converges on the termen above the tornus (in some 

 specimens there are short blackish dashes, one below thecosta 

 before the middle, one above the fold before its middle, and 

 another from the cell to the middle of the termen) ; cilia pale 

 greyish fuscous, with tawny reflections, a darker siiade 

 running along their base. Ea^p. ah 12-14 mm. Ilindiuings

In one variety a large snow-white basal patch appears, 

 reaching further along the costa than along the dorsum, its 

 outer extremity marked by a patch of raised black scales on 

 the cell. The tegulaj of this specimen are also snow-white ; 

 in other respects it presents no appreciable difference from the 

 typical form, indeed on the outer two-thirds of the wing, 

 with the exception of a few scattered white scales, the position 

 and extent of the shading is precisely similar to that of the 

 others. Exp. al. 14 mm.
