medial band slightly excurved from costa to median nervure, very 

 highly excurved below the cell ; a submarginal band curved from 

 costa to vein 2, then recurved to upper angle of cell and running 

 Avith two curves to outer angle ; an irregular series of white 

 marginal blotches sending two streaks across the submarginal band 

 below the apex. Hind wing with dentate subbasal line ; a dark- 

 edged sinuous antemedial white band; a dark-edged white band 

 arising from the apex, curving round to costa near the antemedial 

 baud, then sinuous and joining the antemedial band just above 

 inner margin ; some irregular white spots on the margin.
