 its length ; a brown spot at the tip of each wing; longitudinal veins 

 nearly straight ; lower basal cross-vein approaching very near the 

 sixth longitudinal vein, which it accompanies for half the length of 

 the latter, from thence to the hind border before their junction ; 

 middle cross-vein oblique, slightly curved inward till near the base, 

 where it is curved outward; lower cross-vein a little oblique, forming 

 two very slight angles (the lower inward, the upper outward), parted 

 by more than its length from the middle cross-vein, by much more 

 than its length from the tip of the wing, and by less than one- 

 fourth of its length from the hind border.
