Wings pale yellowish or cinerascent, sometimes faintly tinted with green, and 

 rather thickly irrorated with very minute fuscous dots; all with a small 

 black central dot; the anterior with three fuscous strigae, of which the first is 

 slightly curved and a little angulated towards the costa ; the second placed 

 in general behind the central dot, somewhat curved : the third, towards the 

 hinder margin, considerably waved, and flexuous towards the costa ; the hinder 

 margin with an interrupted deep-fuscous line, and the base of the cilia with a 

 row of minute black dots : posterior wings with two strigse, an interrupted 

 marginal line, and spotted cilia. 



Slightly variable : in some instances the strigas are very robust, in others nearly 

 evanescent ; sometimes the base anterior to the first striga is of a deeper hue 

 than the rest of the wings, at others the margin, and the latter has occasion- 

 ally a faint waved striga. 



Also abundant in all the metropolitan woods in June. " New-
