 wings clear brownish-ochreous, with pure white markings ; two subcostal decreasing 

 white bands, commencing broadly on the furewing at the costa, ending on the sub- 

 median nervure, commencing again on the hiiidwing at the costa, near the anal 

 angle approaching each other and becoming very narrow, recurved to the abdominal 

 margin. Forewing with two short parallel white lines at the end of the discoidal 

 cell ; placed anteriorly midway between tiie.-;e two lines is a trifid white spot which 

 reaches the costa, and posteriorly are two other spots also placed midway between 

 the cell lines, the anterior one in the first median interspace, the posterior one placed 

 a little outwardly as regards the spot anterior to it in the submedian interspace; 

 beyond these two last-named spots are three other spots, the uppermost is white and
