[The type has lost its label, but I remember that the specimen 

 was sent me by the late O. Moller, and was certainly taken in 

 Sikldm or West Bhotan.— iT. J. E.~\

 line distinct only at the costa, runs outwards at first, then at rather 

 a sharp angle, turns and runs parallel to hind mai-gin as a nearly
