The straight instead of undulated submarginal stripe on the primaries is probably the

Size, outline, and general pattern of H. rostralis : primaries pale lilacine greyish irro- 
rated with olive-brown ; the broad belt represented by two olive-brown lines similar to those 
of H. rostralis, the outer line slenderly white-edged ; no trace of the oblique costal dashes of

Primaries above bright reddish chocolate, with silvery-blue markings as follows : — an 
oblique stripe from base of median to basal third of submedian vein ; an incurved line starting 
from beyond the middle of the costal margin, united just above lower radial vein to a nearly 
straight line which runs obliquely inwards to just beyond the middle of the inner margin ; a
