$ 18—19 mm. Head pale ochreous, mixed with fulvous. Palpus pale 
ochreous, densely regularly irrorated with fulvous, terminal segment 
pale. Antenna pale ochreous, ringed with fulvous. Thorax chestnut-brown 
or pale ochreous, patagium and tegula pale ochreous mixed with fulvous

light ochreous. Legs pale ochreous, anterior leg darkly infuscated, median 
leg less infuscated, tarsi light ringed. Fore wing with costa considerably 
gradually curved anteriorly, almost straight posteriorly, apex subacute, 
termen sinuate, somewhat more oblique than in preceding species. Pale 
straw-yellow, densely irrorated with dark grey, more so towards base 
along costa and in apex; less densely irrorated with pale fulvous, or pale 
oehreous-fulvous, somewhat darker fulvous towards base; with dense and 
regular transverse strigulation formed by slightly curved faintly undulate 
light chestnut-brown strigulae which are narrowly edged with pale 
ochreous; costa densely dotted with fulvous, costal edge light ochreous; 
a small transverse dark greyish-brown spot or a small chestnut-brown 
streak, preceded by a round less conspicuous dot, on closing vein. Cilia 
pale straw-yellow, brighter in apex and along costa, basal third fulvous 
around apex, a faint antemedian interrupted fulvous line elsewhere; or 
pale ochreous, with basal third light chestnut-brown, a minute pale basal 
line, cilia along dorsum unicolorous pale whitish-fulvous. Hind wing 
whitish, tinged ochreous-yellowish or pale ochreous posteriorly, in holo- 
type a few dark grey suffused dots in apex; cilia whitish, tinged yellowish- 
ochreous. 
Ostium moderate, a broad, rounded, sclerotized tube, dorsal wall not 
sclerotized, with a broadly rounded invagination at each side below. 
Limen narrow, strong, upper edge slightly projecting in middle, extre- 
mities narrowed. No colliculum. Ductus bursae long, narrow. Bursa 
copulatrix small, rounded. Signum an elongate scobinate patch (Slides
