Expanse -^^ iiich. 
Male. Fore wing smoky black ; an ochreous patch on centre of costa, from the basal end 
of which a pale black-margined narrow curved band runs to middle of inner margin of hind 
wing; a similar postmedial band from costa before apex curving round and joining the ante- 
medial band at end of cell, then outwards and again inwards to lower extremity of cell of 
hind wing, thus forming with the antemedial band a nearly complete figure of eight ; apical 
area ochreous, becoming white at apex. Hind wing orange-yellow, smoky black within ante- 
medial baud J a conspicuous black spot at end of cell. Cilia ochreous white. Underside 
paler.

Antennse rather stout, the basal joints scaled ; palpi porrect, of moderate length, the 
basal joint scaled, terminal joint a denuded spike ; fore leg with long hairs along the hinder 
side of the tibia, and with two spines at the distal end ; hind pair of legs with two spines at 
the distal end of tibia ; hind legs rather thick and of moderate length ; two large tufts of hairs 
on the upper and lateral surfaces of tibia — one at middle, the other at distal end, each with a 
pair of long stout spines just beyond them. Primaries shaped as in Platyptilus ; secondaries 
with the feathers not expanding towards their extremities, and with no spatulate cilia on the
