sinuate, moderately oblique. Light ochreous-tawny, markings suffusedly 
darker tawny-fuscous, more suffused towards margins, especially on lower 
half of wing, edged with narrow silvery-ochreous streaks. Basal patch 
rather large, on costa to about l j 7 , on dorsum to 2 / s , with margin sinuate, 
and with a moderate angulation at 1 / 3 ; basal patch edged posteriorly by a 
silvery-ochreous streak from below fold to before dorsum ; central fascia 
with anterior edge from before 1 / 3 of costa to 3 / 5 of dorsum, sinuate, with 
a moderate, bluntly angulate projection above middle; this fascia edged 
anteriorly by a silvery streak from costa to dorsum; posterior margin of 
fascia slightly edged with a few short tawny-fuscous streaks above, suffused 
and indefinite below, running from middle of costa to tornus, concave 
above, with an angulate projection above middle, concave again below 
this, lower fifth touching end of costal patch ; an erect-ovate, vertical, 
small tawny spot on lower angle of cell; costal patch very large, extending 
on costa from before 3 / 5 to before apex, anterior edge to tornus, hardly 
concave above and beneath, slightly indent in middle, preceded by a 
silvery marginal line which is somewhat dilated in middle of disc; posterior 
edge of costal patch inwardly oblique, somewhat convex, and broadly 
suffused with tawny-fuscous above, deeply indent on vein 7 ; below this 
indentation almost straight, outwardly oblique, slightly dentate on veins, 
to termen above tornus; costal patch also posteriorly edged throughout 
by a narrow silvery-ochreous line; faint transverse interrupted fuscous- 
tawny strigulae on lighter parts of wing, especially on upper half, two 
small costal dots on costal patch, one just before apex; terminal edge 
faintly suffused with tawny; cilia light tawny with a series of rounded 
tawny-fuscous blotches, with a faint antemedian line. Hind wing and cilia 
pale whitish-ochreous, glossy, somewhat brighter ochreous towards edge; 
basal pencil of hairs light ochreous. 
Uncus narrowed below top. Socius elongate. Gnathos very strong, lower 
angles dilated, strongly scobinate. Transtilla straight, lateral dentations 
moderate. Aedoeagus with a long sinuate subapical horn (Slide No. 514 D). 
Moss Forest Camp, 2600—2800 m, October 9— November 5, 1938. One

$ 15 mm. Head light ochreous. Palpus rather slender, light ochreous, 
sprinkled with brown, apex of median segment pale. Antenna grey. Thorax 
bright ochreous. Abdomen dark grey, whitish towards base. Legs light 
ochreous, tibiae infuscated and light-ringed, posterior tibia yellowish. 
Bright ochreous, faintly irrorated with pale brownish, markings brown. 
Four tolerably parallel, oblique, almost straight narrow rather equidistant 
lines, first line from 1 j 6 of costa to dorsum beyond 2 / s , last line from 2 / 3 of 
costa to termen just above tornus, posterior three lines somewhat out- 
wardly curved below; thus edged basal patch, central fascia, and apical
