exterior margin very oblique ; costal vein extending to more than two-thirds the 
margin ; subcostal vein three-branched, the first branch emitted at one-fifth before 
end of the cell, second bifid, the third being thrown off from the second at fully one- 
fourth from the apex, and the upper radial at about one-fifth beyond end of the 
cell; cell extending to more than half-length of the wing, very broad ; discocellulars 
both slightly concave and oblique, lower radial from their angle ; middle median 
at one-third and lower beyond half before end of cell ; submedian recurved. Hind-
