 Both wings blacker than in P. Mena, the markings somewhat of a deeper pale yellow, 

 and brighter yellow on the abdominal margin. Foreiving with the cell area and the 

 discal streaks more thickly black-speckled, the discal streak between the medians 

 narrower and entire, those of the upper series differently shaped at their outer end, 

 the outer-discal series of spots different, the lower median spot of this series being 

 very small, the upper three disposed in an incurved series, there being also a fourth 

 upper very small spot, which is not present in P. Mena; the subraarginal row of 

 spots are placed somewhat nearer the margin, and are small, narrow, except the 

 upper which is dentate; the marginal are not present. Hindiuing with, the veins
