first is above the fold not far from the base, the second on the fold, the 
third on the dise is larger and before the middle, the fourth is on the 
dise beyond the middle; the hinder margin and apex of the costa are 
spotted with black, with a few whitish scales; cilia fuscous, with a 
central darker line. Posterior wings pale grey, with pale greyish-fus-

Head and face greyish-ochreous. Palpi pale ochreous; terminal 
joint slightly spotted with fuscous, Antennee fuscous. Anterior wings 
greyish-ochreous, with a dark fuscous streak at the base near the costa, 
and the costa clouded with fuscous (narrowly at first, but broader be- 
yond the middle); a rather broad dark fuscous streak runs along the 
Jold to beyond the middle, it is connected with a dark fuscous streak on 
the dise beginning before the middle and running to the apex; in the 
latter is an appearance of a darker fuscous spot beyond the middle; 
the apical portion of the wing is much suffused with fuscous; the 
hinder margin and apex of the costa are spotted with dark fuscous ; 
cilia greyish-ochreous, varied with fuscous. Posterior wings pale grey, 
with greyish-ochreous cilia.

Head, face, and palpi pale ochreous. Antenne pale ochreous, annu- 
lated with pale fuscous. Anterior wings pale ochreous towards the costa, 
pale fuscous towards the inner margin, the division of the colour forming 
nearly a straight line from the middle of the base to the apex of the wing ; 
on the costa beyond the middle is a short fuscous line; a dark fuscous 
spot lies on the fold before the middle, and another on the dise beyond 
the middle, and there are frequently a few dark scales on the subcostal 
vein near the base; cilia ochreous. Posterior wings pale grey, with

Not common ; occurs in June in the Cambridgeshire fens.
