 at the margins of the orbits : antennjE yellow ; each joint, after the

 come indistinct and brownish, and finally disappear) : eyes coppery : 

 maxillary palpi yellow, clothed with long black hairs, intermingled 

 with some yellowish ones : labial palpi with yellow hairs. Meso- 

 notum bearing a broad black stripe along each side. Legs yellow, 

 with yellow pubescence; but the intermediate tibia; and tarsi are 

 rendered blackish externally owing to the presence of sparse 

 blackish ])ubescence. Abdomen yellowish, the apex obscure : app.

 apical portion, and with numerous but ill-defined spots formed by 

 golden-yellow pubescence ; apical fringe short, blackish, golden at the 

 extreme base ; first apical cellule reaching the anastomosis, as long as 

 the third, impinging only slightly upon the discoidal cell. Pos- 

 terior wings pale grey, subhyaline, iridescent; fringes grey; veins

The pubescence of the anterior wings is only lightly attached ;
