Head, palpi and thorax clothed with rough olive-ochreous hair, the palpi with a considerable admixture of black hairs apically. Pectus and legs with similarly colored, rough vestiture. Abdomen dorsally with sparse ochreous hairs over a black ground and with the posterior margins of segments ringed narrowly with ochreous scales ; laterally and ventrally with strong vestiture of rather bright yellow hair. Primaries deep pink with a broad, subterminal curved band of oliveochreous from below apex of wing to near base of wing above vein I, narrowing considerably at this point; a streak of the same color in the cell.
