The example from Jamaica has the apices of the primaries rather 

 more rounded and the pattern less strongly indicated than in 

 Felder's figure ; still it is so like it that it would be unsafe to regard 

 it as a distinct species. 



85. Elotjsa albicans, Walker, Lep. Het. xiii. p. 1118 (1857). 



This genus is nearly allied to Erastria ; the same species is 

 described subsequently by Walker under the name of Erastria 

 includens.

Primaries pale brown mottled with black ; a broad central band 

 (the internal third of which is black and the remainder of the 

 ground-colour), limited internally by a black line, and externally by 

 an angulated and slightly irregular white line ; a black line across 

 the base, terminating on interno-median area in a triangular black 

 patch ; several black costal dashes and an oblique black line from 

 the costa across the central band ; a subcostal greyish lunule partly 

 bordered by pearly scales beyond the central band ; a very irregular 

 dentate-sinuate whity -brown discal stripe with dark borders ; a sub- 

 marginal series of black bracket-like markings separated by white 

 dots upon the veins ; fringe spotted with dark brown : secondaries 

 reddish brown, darker towards the outer border ; a black sinuated 

 marginal line interrupted on the veins by white dots ; fringe pale 

 brown, bordered and intersected by parallel dusky lunules : body 

 pale brown speckled with black ; collar with an ill-defined central 

 black line, the border pearly ; a few pearly whitish scales scattered 

 over the thorax ; abdomen with three very prominent dark brown 

 dorsal tufts or masses of scales. Primaries below pale olive-brown 

 slightly sericeous ; a black costal spot before the middle, and a 

 second smaller one beyond the middle ; the remainder of the costa 

 alternately brown and white ; disk darker than the rest of the wing, 

 crossed by a nearly straight dusky line, and limited externally by a 

 very irregular dentate-sinuate line ; a sinuated black marginal line, 

 interrupted by white dots upon the veins ; fringe with red-brown
