brown hairs, the tarsi ringed black and pinkish ochreous ; abdomen fuscous 

 mixed with rufous and with slight greyish segmental lines, the anal tuft pale 

 rufous. Forewing ochreous almost wholly suffused with purplish red-brown, 

 the terminal area with fuscous, the veins with slight dark streaks ; subbasal 

 line represented by two slight striae from costa ; antemedial line double filled 

 in with ochreous, angled outwards below costa then excurved to vein 1, 

 where it is slightly angled inwards ; claviform large, defined by black : 

 orbicular with brown centre and ochreous annulus defined by black, oblique 

 elliptical ; reniform with fuscous centre and ochreous annulus defined by 

 black on inner side only, somewhat constricted at middle and with its lower 

 extremity dentate ; a slight medial line ; postmedial line double filled in 

 with ochreous, bent outwards below costa, then minutely dentate, excurved 

 to vein 4, then incurved to lower edge of reniform, some brown and ochreous 

 strise beyond it on costa, a black streak from it to termen above vein 4 ; 

 subterminal line ochreous defined by rufous on inner side forming somewhat 

 dentate marks at middle, very slightly angled outwards at vein 7 and dent- 

 ate at veins 4 - 3, with black streaks from it to termen above veins 8 and 2 ; a 

 terminal series of black points ; cilia fuscous brown with fine pale line at 

 base followed by a slight dark line. Hindwing greyish nearly uniformly 

 suffused and irrorated with brown ; a fine dark terminal line ; cilia och-
