Male and female. Antenne brownish; palpi pale sandy grey, 
black at the sides ; top of head whitish ; body and fore wings of a 
bright sandy fawn-colour ; the divisions of the collar, tegule, &c. on

ringed with grey, but all very indistinct; three transverse very 
indistinct greyish sinuous lines, first subbasal, hardly visible, second 
and third more distinct ; antemedial and postmedial well separated ; 
fringe interlined. 
Hind wings whitish, sandy grey on the outer borders. 
Underside: wings much the same shade of colour as they are 
above, shining, the fore wing has a discal mark and some indistinct

Hab. Solun (Simla). One pair in excellent condition from the 
late Captain Reed’s collection. 
From the allied S. fraterna this species differs in the much 
browner colour of the fore wings, the ante- and postmedial sinuous 
lines being much less defined, the outer line being disposed nearer to 
the end of the cell than in S. fraterna ; the spot at end of the cell is 
also less defined and has no white border to it.
