Nearly allied to T. juniperata of Europe ; of the same colours; considerably larger; the 
subbasal black line more acutely angulated in the male, in the female unequal, zigzag, and 
shaded internally so as to form an ill-defined subbasal band ; the postmedian band edged 
internally from costa to median vein by a straight oblique black line, the corresponding outer 
edge of the band is also oblique and much more regular; the loAver portion of the band is 
narrower in the male and partly divided into contiguous spots, but in the female it is wider, 
the lowest division is blackened and its inner edge is very oblique ; the whole of the markings 
on the external area are more strongly defined and the grey line on the secondaries is undu- 
lated : the under surface of the secondaries is white. Expanse of wings, J 32 millim.,
