ft. Head and thorax grey-white mixed with some brown and fuscous ; abdo- 

 men ochreous white. Forewing grey and white tinged with ochreous and slightly 

 irrorated with brown ; sub-basal line represented by black striae from costa and 

 cell ; antemedial line single, black defined by whitish on inner side, interrupted 

 at the veins, erect from costa to vein 1, and angled outwards above inner 

 margin ; claviform moderate, defined by black ; orbicular and reniform defined 

 by rather diffused black, with its inner edge produced inwards as a streak to 

 antemedial line ; traces of a diffused medial line touching orbicular and clavi- 

 form ; postmedial line single, black slightly defined by whitish on outer side, 

 bent outwards below costa, then dentate and produced to short streaks on the 

 veins, confluent with outer edge of reniform, oblique below vein 4 ; faint traces 

 of a whitish subterminal line slightly defined by fuscous on inner side, excurved 

 at vein 7 and middle ; a terminal series of slight black lunules ; cilia ochreous 

 white with two slight dark Jines through them. Hindwing white tinged with 

 pale brown, the cilia pure white ; the underside white with slight discoidal spot

$. Wing aborted, small, the forewing elongate, narrow, the termen, rounded, 

 the hindwing triangular ; forewing with the lines browner, the antemedial 

 line excurved below cell and above inner margin ; claviform absent ; orbicular 

 reduced to a point, the reniform a slight lunule well separated from post-
