Extract

Male lappets vivid deep yellow. Dorsal and ventral sides of abdomen deep bright yellow with a narrow black band on the anterior margin of each segment. The appearance of the species is intermediate between eglanterina and hera, differing most conspicuously from these two in wing color. Primaries pale yellow faintly tinged with pink, but much less intense than in eglanterina. Secondaries brilliant yellow.
