basi costae, et squamis in terno basali marginis dorsalis 

 inter cilia projectis cupreo-argenteis. Alis posticis ochreis 

 plaga basali cum fasciis mediali et subapicali albidis 

 cupreo-argenteo metallice marginatis. 



Head and face shining silvery ; palpi silvery. Antennae 

 silvery, inconspicuously annulated above with yellowish. 

 Fore wings ochreous, brightly shining with silvery and 

 brassy metallic scales ; a narrow fasciaform streak 

 tending obliquely outwards from the apical fourth of the 

 costa, a shorter oblique streak before the middle, reach- 

 ing about half across the wing, and a costal spot nearer 

 to the base, are composed of shining metallic silvery 

 slightly-raised scales, appearing, under a strong lens, 

 dull purplish brown, golden yellow, or silvery white as the 

 light strikes them at different angles. Cilia very long, 

 dull yellowish white, mixed with ochreous about the 

 anal angle, and with a few strong purplish brown pro- 

 jecting scales on the dorsal margin at about one-third 

 from the base. Hind wings straight, evenly attenuated 

 towards the apex, ochreous ; with a basal patch, a 

 median, and a subapical fascia, all whitish, conspicuously 

 margined with silvery iridescent scales, as in the fore 

 wings. Cilia dull yellowish white, with a slight indica- 

 tion of a few projecting scales on the abdominal 

 margin opposite to those on the fore wings. Legs 

 yellowish, the tibiae pilose, tarsi shining, slightly metallic. 

 Expanse, 10 mm. 



One specimen. Taken at D 'Urban, in West Park 

 thicket, in July.
