paler, above these the costal cross-veins are brownish, and 
behind them there are faint brownish streaks across the

third on the hind margin is a brown tubercle or pupilla 
not one-half as long as in S. tuberculatus, and wholly dark. 
Hind wings with faint spots between subcosta and radius,

teen to sixteen cross-veins; about fifteen cross-veins be- 
tween radius and radial sector; radial sector with ten
