the apex. Secondaries with the basal half of the wings pale, with 

 a blackish cell-spot ; outer half dark greyish brown, with a pale 

 patch on the inner margin above the tornns. 



Expanse 46 mm.

 type. The species is nearest tongaica Btl., but the lines differ in 

 shape and ai-e single, not double, the wings are broader, and the 

 colour quite clifierent.
