large, somewhat angular patch at the base, a fascia beyond the mid- 

 dle, extending half the breadth of the wing from the lower edge, and 

 a patch at the apex fuscous ; on the costa are four pairs of small white 

 spots ; posterior wings fuscous : head and thorax luteous. 



Of this small, but distinct species, I have but one specimen, 

 which I took in June last by beating a spruce fir at Weybridge.
