Described from one 6 taken by Dr. Annandale (19-22. ix. 1906) at Bhim Tal, Ivumaon; in the Indian Museum collection. A second specimen from Pusa, 16, xii. 1915. The species can hardly be confused with any other, the con- spicuous blackish cloud in the middle of the wing differentiating it from all the clear-winged species except umhrosa, and sdso sufHcieutly from the two species classed by me as wholly brown- winced.
