Agrees with Polia in having the frons smooth, but the antennae of the <$ are bipectinate to 
two-thirds. Type H. subarschanica Stgr. 
culia. H. culta Moore (9 c, d). Forewing dark red brown varied with purplish greyfdines blackish, double; 
the subterminal grey preceded by dentate black marks with patches of yellow scales on them; the other lines and 
the stigmata also ornamented with yellow scales; hindwing fuscous, showing traces of a pale subterminal line 
above anal angle. Recorded from Dalhousie in the Punjab; occurs also in Tibet and Kashmir; the form 
subviolacea. subviolacea Leech, which has apparently been found only in W. China, is characterised by the obsolescence 
of the yellow scales.
