minutely dentate, bent outwards below costa, excurved to vein 4, 

 then oblique, the area be5'otid it pale rufous to the waved ochreous 

 subterminal line, which is defined on inner side by a black patch at 

 costa and slight dentate marks on inner half, the one in submodian 

 fold laro;e ; a terminal series of small black lunules. Hind wing 

 ochreous white, the costal and terminal areas suffused with rufous ; 

 a diffused blackish mark at tornus ; the underside whitish, the 

 costal area irrorated with brown, a small discoidal spot, incomplete 

 minutely waved postmedial line, and diffused subterminal line 

 towards apex and tornus.
