 and red-brown at inner margin ; the claviform absent ; orbicular 

 quadrate, purplish fuscous defined by white striae at sides and 

 with black in cell before it and between it and the reniform, which is

 bent outwards below costa, then minutely waved, incurved below 

 vein 5, the costa beyond it brown with white points ; subterminal 

 line slight, white defined on inner side by a black band from below 

 costa to vein 2, divided into spots by slight white streaks on veins 8,
