ried with whitish along the inner margin toward the base, with an oblique dorsal
white patch, terminating in the ocelloid patch, with a slender, irregular dark
brown line on its middle, and one or two spots on the dorsal edge of the wing.
The costa is streaked with white, slightly silvery; beyond the middle of the

wings dark fuscous, grayish towards the base.(Brackenridge Clemens. 1860. Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia 12: 345-362) BugGuide
