Extract

The male is now taken by Mr. Jas. Angus. The species is larger than obscura,agreeing with it in tone and in the white fringes of hind wings; it may be distinguished by the strongly marked median lines of primaries with a deeper toothing. The lines in obscura are thread-1ike, inconspicuous, and with shallower indentations. The opinion expressed that simulatilis is the ♀ of obscura must be the result of error; as I remarked at the time of describing the species, such a sexual variation would be without a parallel in the genus.
