running obliquely outward towards hind margin, curving on 
the second and third medians, running inwards between first 
and second medians, and again curving to inner margin 
before anal angle; costa ferruginous, with scattered black 
scales beyond first line; the second line on costa passes 
through a squarish white patch with pale ferruginous scales ; 
in the cell are two tufts of brown-black scales, one behind 
the other; the lower three fourths of the whole central area 
is a mixture of olive-brown and ferruginous, as is also the 
marginal area, except in the middle, where there is a paler 
space without suffusion ; fringes reddish olive, chequered with 
blackish opposite the veins. Hind wings dark brownish grey, 
with the fringes paler. Palpi dark brown; face and vertex 
ferruginous; collar a mixture of dark brown, ferruginous 
and pale scales; patagia black at base, becoming ferruginous 
at their tips; abdomen blackish on top, paler and mottled at 
sides. Underside glossy, darker towards the margins: fore 
wings with costa ferruginous ochreous; a blackish patch of 
scales in the middle of the cell, preceded and followed by 
pale ochreous scales; inner margin broadly pearly white: 
hind wings towards the base straw-colour, dusted with 
blackish, with a blackish round cell-spot, and a dark curved 
exterior line like that in the fore wings.

Fore wings grey-green, with dark grey markings; first 
line at one fifth thick, blackish, towards the costa still thicker ; 
second line at two fifths, straight, rather oblique inwards, 
approaching first line on inner margin; discal spot blackish, 
distinct ; exterior line at three fifths, running obliquely out- 
wards, denticulated to the middle, then curving inwards to 
inner margin at four fifths; the central fascia is thus much 
broader on the inner margin than on the costa, and is much 
darkened with grey scales before the exterior line on the inner 
margin, and in a less degree on the costa after the second 
line ; submarginal line angled and slightly denticulate, much 
thickened in its upper part towards the costa; hind margin 
with a row of black spots; fringes reddish grey. Hind wings 
blackish, deeper before the fringes, which are reddish grey. 
The basal area of fore wings and all the body, including face, 
palpi, head, thorax, and abdomen, are yellow-ochreous in the 
only example I have seen, but were almost certainly con- 
colcrous green with the rest of the wings. Underside glossy,
