DESCRIPTION OF TWO NEW SPECIES OF CATOCALA
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
Intermediate between Briseis and Meskei. Fore wings paler than Briseis, with the t. p. line more dentate, and the brown subterminal shade paler; sub-reniform open. Hind wings red like Meskei, the middle black band broader, interrupted, transverse and not like Briseis, where it is still broader, continned and rounded, not so straight across the wing. Beneath much like Briseis, with the black bands broader and the white interspaces narrower than in Meskei. The subterminal white dentate shade on the primaries above more dentate than in Briseis. This species is similarly sized with Briseis, and is best described comparatively with that species and Meskei. Sent me by Mr. Thomas E. Bean, under the number 574, from Illinois.
