 band, which is continued along the submedian vein, a subbasal band, a discal band

 of the basal band between it and the anal spot, and its costal portion is lengthened 

 and is either erect or slightly angled inward ; the submarginal and marginal black 

 limules narrower than on the upperside, and their interspaces pale grey, the former 

 being inwardly broadly-bordered with diffused ochreous-yellow ; basal interspaces 

 also tinted with pale olivescent-yellow. Body greyish-white ; head black with two
