fuscous, with an oblique dusky spot towards the middle of the 
costa, and a faint rounded one near the tip ; fringe ochreous brown :

Closely allied to var. a. of the foregoing species, but with the 
anterior wings of a brighter red, and very obscurely streaked with 
oblique browui strigae; the costa with a few whitish spots, divided 
by a dusky line, towards the apex: hinder wings dull brown, with 
the base pale; fringe tawny-brown. 
It is possible that this unique male specimen may he only a 
singular var. of L. trimaculana. It was found in Devonshire, in 
June.
