 covering the marginal and apical portion of submarginal vein, 

 and the wing apex is obscurely infuscated ; discal cilia fine, 

 not very dense; marginal vein one-fourth as long as the stig- 

 mal, which is very long, its apex distant from the wing margin 

 by about one-sixth its own length. Length, 0*85 mm.
