Antennae : club moderate, bent at about a right angle, tapering to 

 a fine point. Third joint of palpi slightlj^ projecting from the 

 clothing of second joint. Fore wing: outer margin longer than 

 inner margin ; no costal fold in male ; cell more than three-fifths

 cell ; middle and lower discocellulars inwardly oblique and in the 

 same straight line, the middle the longer ; vein 3 twice as far from 

 2 as from end of cell ; vein 2 more than twice as far from end of 

 cell as from base of wing. Hind wing : vein 7 only slightly further 

 from base of wing than from end of cell ; discocellulars erect, faint ; 

 vein 5 barely traceable ; veiu 3 just before end of cell ; vein 2 rather 

 nearer to end of cell than to base of wing. 



Male with an erectile tuft of hairs on upperside of hind wing,

 as far from 2 as from 4 ; vein 2 more than twice as far from base 

 of wing as from end of cell. Hind wing: vein 7 close to end of cell,
