Allied to rubi and conflua. Taken by Mr. Norman in Canada, and considered to be identical with the European rubi in former writings. Abdomen and hind wings paler than in conflua. Fore wings of a darker purply-reddish brown; t. a. line geminate, a black spot before the orbicular and usually the disc between the spots is black stained. Claviform indicated. Subterminal pale, more waved, but like conflua, differing from rubi; beneath the common line is not diffuse as in conflua.
