yellow. Legs moderately long and slender, covered with a rich 

 golden pubescence, the upper side of the femora, and the tarsal 

 joints more or less tinged with blackish. Wings pellucid, with a 

 very pale bluish tint, densely pubescent, in an oblique direction 

 appearing almost golden-yellow with bright violaceous spots. One 

 longitudinal spot on the costal border, extending over the anterior 

 half of the first longitudinal vein, another below the second longi- 

 tudinal vein rather in advance of the first spot. The whole 

 apical portion of the wing enveloped in a more or less nebulose 

 marking, a .small spot of the yellow being distinctly visible at the tip 

 of the second longitudinal ; this colour runs also in a narrow band 

 up tlie anterior branch of the third longitudinal vein, and widens 

 as it extends down the posterior branch to the margin of the wing, 

 forming an irregular arcuation ; in the middle of the anterior 

 branch a short band extends upwards, not so far as, and imme- 

 diately anterior to, the second named spot. Another ill-defined 

 marking exists on the margin just before the base of the third 

 longitudinal vein. Veins yellow. Second longitudinal vein thick, 

 reaching the margin immediately beyond the apex of the wing ; 

 third longitudinal not very distinct. (Description drawn from 

 dried specimen).
