suffusedly blackish-margined ; second line very slender, obscure, whitish, 
anteriorly finely blackish-margined, rather abruptly curved above middle ; 
subterminal obsolete; a slender interrupted white hindmarginal line: cilia 
ochreous-whitish, with two dark grey lines. Hindwings 14, whitish-grey ; 
lunule, postmedian line and a hindmarginal line darker grey, distinct; cilia 
whitish, with a dark grey interrupted line. 
Apparently allied to S. feredayi, but very distinct by the ochreous-

tion of second line, and other characters. 
Mount Wellington, Tasmania, amongst rocky scrub at 8,000 feet in De- 
cember ; apparently very local, being confined to a small patch of ground
