Olivaceous brown, densely striated with black ; primaries crossed in the middle by two 
reversed irregularly arched white bands, which usually unite on the first median branch so as 
to produce a large >|-shaped character ; immediately beyond these bands is a third curved 
white band from the apex to the first median branch, continued, by the addition of a transverse 
orange dash, almost to the submedian vein ; a pale, widely undulated submarginal line ; a 
white spot on the middle of the fringe : secondaries crossed near the base by a white band, 
which curves outwards on the subcostal area, and almost joins an arched white postmedian 
baud ; centre of disk irregularly golden brown, without black striations ; a slender white stripe 
partly tinted with yellow, and bordered externally with orange, from the extremity of the first 
subcostal branch to the abdominal margin just below the postmedian vein; immediately 
beyond this stripe a series of subconfluent whitish-edged black hastate spots, their points 
directed outwards ; fringe white between the costal and subcostal, and between the second and 
third median veins ; a series of marginal lunate black spots : vertex of head and front of collar 
pale sandy brown ; antennae with sienna-red pectinations ; base of abdomen crossed by a white 
band. Under surface dark sericeous grey-brown ; the basal area mottled with white : primai'ies 
with the >|-shaped character wider and more irregular than above ; a white apical spot, and 
a white spot on the fringe : secondaries with a broad subcostal white band confluent with a 
broad, brown-spotted, angular, white submedian band ; two white marginal patches : body

* This genus was referred by its author to the Ennomidce ; it is, however, evidently allied to the 
preceding genus.
