  white 
  ; 
  fore 
  wings 
  with 
  greyish 
  brown, 
  nearly 
  

   mouse-coloured 
  bands, 
  one 
  before 
  the 
  middle, 
  broad, 
  disjointed 
  in 
  

   the 
  centre, 
  where 
  it 
  is 
  somewhat 
  macular, 
  widening 
  above 
  and 
  

   below, 
  expanding 
  on 
  the 
  costa, 
  and 
  running 
  in 
  on 
  the 
  costa 
  to 
  the 
  

   base, 
  also 
  widens 
  outwards, 
  nearly 
  touching 
  the 
  apical 
  band, 
  also 
  

   expands 
  broadly 
  along 
  the 
  hinder 
  margin, 
  which 
  it 
  does 
  not 
  touch, 
  

   except 
  at 
  the

   spot 
  close

  its 
  centre 
  ; 
  a 
  broad 
  

   apical 
  band 
  enclosing 
  a 
  subapical 
  white 
  square 
  spot, 
  this 
  band 
  

   narrowing 
  hindwards,
