Female. Brown. Palpi obliquely ascending, thickly pilose, 

 very slightly curved, much shorter than the thorax ; the tuft trun- 

 cated near the tip of the third joint, which is pale. Antennae 

 stout. Abdomen brownish cinereous, with very distinct tufts. 

 Legs stout, somewhat fringed. Fore wings rectangular at the tips, 

 not falcate, dark brown, and with a purple tinge on the basal half, 

 which is bounded by the exterior line ; the latter is undulating, with 

 a whitish outer border, and forms two angles; interior line angular 

 in front ; an emerald-green tinge hindward between it and the ex- 

 terior line, which has a broad blackish subcostal streak between it 

 and the exterior border ; submarginal line indicated by some black 

 points ; marginal points black ; orbicular and reniform marks 

 black, the former punctiform, the latter incomplete. Hind wings 

 brown. Length of the body 5 lines ; of the wings 11 lines. 



It is nearly allied to H. rhombalis, but in its stout form and 

 ascending palpi differs still more than that species from the typical 

 Hypence.
