portion of the wing is mottled with rust-brown mixed with blackish 

 scales, forming a subapical transverse streak and a spot opposite to

 the whitish cilia and along the dorsum as well as in a series of 

 costal reticulations. Exp. al. 8-10 mm. Hind wings^dle brownish

Antenme whitish. PrtZ^:>i whitish, shaded with olivaceous on 

 their outer sides. Head whitish. Thorax creamy whitish. Fore 

 ivinr/s shining creamy white, shaded with olivaceous along the 

 basal half of the costa ; an olivaceous band, descending straight 

 from the middle of the costa, is angulated on the cell, reverting to 

 the dorsum before the middle, at its angle is a small dot of black 

 scales ; a small, oblique, olivaceous streak commences on the costa 

 halfway between this and the apex, not quite attaining the middle 

 of the termen, along which is a slight olivaceous shade, with a 

 rounded patch of the same colour lying above the tornus and a 

 small brownish dot below and before it at the commencement of 

 the dorsal cilia ; cilia shining creamy whitish. Exj>. al. 10 mm.

Antennce ochreous. Paljn whitish ochreous, slightly shaded 

 externally. Head and tJwi-ax whitish ochreous. Fo7-e wings 

 whitish ochreous, with three dark fawn-brown costal spots and the 

 extreme base of the costa also fawn-brown ; the first spot occurs 

 at one-fourth from the base and almost meets an oblique streak of 

 a slightly paler shade running outwards from the base of the 

 dorsum ; the second is large and triangular, a little beyond the 

 middle, its apex pointing outwards and scarcely separated from 

 the apex of a similar dorsal triangle almost exactly opposite to it, 

 but very slightly nearer to the base ; the third costal spot is very 

 minute and less well-defined ; from this runs a paler fawn-brown 

 band, outwardly to the termen below the apex and downwards 

 along the terminal margin to the tornus ; a small brown spot at 

 the end of the cell, almost between the apices of the costal and 

 dorsal triangles, completes the wing-markings, with the exception
