Hind wing triangular ; costa, outer and inner margin somewhat 
rounded ; apex and tornus well rounded ; la long, straight ; lb nearly 
straight ; 2 from f lower median ; 3 and 4 on a short stalk from lower 
angle ; 5 from above this angle ; 6 and 7 on a stalk of J of vein 6 and 
from upper angle ; 8 bent to beyond J upper median, where that vein is 
angled upwards, so as just to touch it, but not anastomosing with it, then 
curved at end. 
The venation, the palpi, and the process of the fore legs vary a 
little in the different species and will be mentioned under each respective
