 times reddish-brown ; markings fuscous ; an obscure slender 

 transverse line at J ; a subcostal dot at J ; and two dots placed 

 transversely beneath mid-costa ; a slender acutely dentate line 

 from I costa across disc, below middle bent abruptly inwards 

 to beneath median dots, and then downwards to dorsum just 

 beyond middle : a terminal series of minute dots on veins ; 

 cilia whitish, bases fuscous. Hindwings with termen rounded ; 

 colour as f orewings, but paler towards base ; one or two dots 

 representing basal line : an acutely dentate postmedian line, 

 its median third produced towards termen ; terminal dots and

 from J costa, describing a sigmoid curve to f dorsum : a sec-
