Extract

Prionia levis, n. var. or sp.

Primaries without the delicate frosted or silvery appearance, and without the numerous short, fine, strigate, brown lines of bilineata. The brown scales are present, but are uniformly and evenly distributed, save where they form the two brown lines which cross the wing, and a little darker shading near the outer edge and apex. These two transverse lines are about a third wider apart that in bilineata, the second narrowly edged externally with the clear, pale yellow ground-colour of the wing.
