S , 42 mm. 



Head, antenna, palpus, thorax and legs pale brown, head and thorax 

 above tinged with rufous ; abdomen ochreous-white with the dorsum

 basal third and termen) and with bright rufous (distally to the 

 postmedial line) ; some fuscous irroration. Subbasal line almost 

 obsolete ; antemedial line bent out from costa at one-third to SC, then 

 oblique to near middle of hind margin ; two black reniform spots on 

 the discocellulars ; a slight waved medial line near to and nearly 

 parallel with the postmedial ; postmedial line fine, blackish, from costa 

 at two-thirds, excurved to M 2 then nearly erect to hind margin at about 

 three-quarters ; subterminal line obsolescent, defined by the proximal 

 bright rufous shade and distal dull rufous one, waved, irregular ; four 

 slight, pale spots on costa near apex; some terminal black dots and 

 a slight, somewhat interrupted dark line on termen ; the fringe grey, 

 white and brown intermixed ; a few white scales also on termen.

 fuscous shading proximally to the subterminal and terminal lines ; 

 a slight discal spot ; terminal dots and line as on the fore wing. 



Underside of both wings pale ochreous-brown irrorated with 

 fuscous, paler before hind- and abdominal margins ; a waved brown 

 postmedial line and pale, indistinct, waved subterminal line ; margins

 discocellulars ; fore wing with a slight streak on discocellulars joined 

 to a faint medial streak from costa.
