£ 20 mm. Head, palpus, antenna, and thorax dark brownish-fuscous, 
latter somewhat paler, tinged with lilac. Abdomen whitish-ochreous, 
faintly infuscated posteriorly, anal tuft, whitish-ochreous. Legs light 
ochreous, anterior and median legs suffused with light brownish, pale-

narrow, costa moderately curved anteriorly, less curved posteriorly, apex 
subacute, slightly prominent, termen gradually slightly concave above, 
rounded beneath, little oblique. Rather dark lilac-fuscous, markings 
ochreous-whitish, glossy, well-defined. A moderately broad transverse 
fascia from 1 / s of costa to 2 / 5 of dorsum, slightly gradually narrowed 
towards costa, hardly narrowed above dorsum, narrowly edged with deep 
chestnut brown ; this colour forming a suffusion along fold to base, and a 
rather well-defined invert, erect-ovate patch on middle of dorsum to 
middle of disc, suffused above; another transverse fascia narrow, faintly 
inwardly sinuate, from beyond middle of costa to tornus, with a rather 
abrupt small dilatation in tornus, and with a small slender vertical branch 
on transverse vein, acute top of branch on lower angle of cell; this fascia 
edged anteriorly, and more distinctly posteriorly, with bright fulvous- 
reddish suffusion ; top of above mentioned branch connected by posterior 
edge of dorsal patch with small elongate ochreous streaks, situated before, 
and on top of second fascia, and with three somewhat larger ochreous 
dots along posterior third of costa; a narrow faint leaden-grey sinuate 
striga from tornus to first of those dots, another one from 3 / 4 of termen, 
furcate in middle, to second and third costal dots; wing more or less 
suffused with darker lilac-fuscous, especially along base and along costa, 
faintly transversely strigulated with the same colour elsewhere. Cilia 
rather dark fuscous-lilac, faintly barred with darker, a narrow dark 
antemedian line, Hind wing pale ochreous-fuscous, faintly dotted with 
greyish, somewhat brighter ochreous in apex. Cilia whitish ochreous,
