C. andrci was first described by Westwood in "Cabinet of 

 Oriental Entomology 1848.'' Plate XII, Fig. I $ ; from a 

 single <5 specimen under the name of Saturnia suleika, which 

 specific name was already given to Saturnia (now Rinacd) 

 suleika by Rev. F. W. Hope. Trans. Linn Socy., Lond., Vol. 

 XIX, PI. XI, page 132; the figure being by Westzvood himself. 

 The type of Westu'ood's zulcika $ and which is now refer- 

 able to andrei $ , is in the Hope Museum at Oxford and 

 when I last saw it was the second specimen in the row of C. 

 trifenestrata; as pointed out by Dr. Jordan the 9 of S. ZH- 

 leika of Westwood is a male of trifenestrata. \Yestwood evi- 

 dently led to think that the trifenestrata having a less falcate 

 contour than his male zulcika (andrei} ( $ } was the female. 



Egg. Slightly larger if anything than trifenestrata laid in even rows 

 where possible or in little masses of 8-15 with a small distinct black 

 micropyle as in Caligula simla and jafonica. 



Larva, ist Stage: When hatched 3-16 inch long, body pale greenish 

 yellow not changing to blackish brown as in ti'ifenstrata. Head shining 

 black with a few fine greenish hairs on skull pointing downwards. 

 They are gregarious when young; 6 rows (2 dorsal) of black spots 

 from the prothoracic carapace, which has 2 lateral ones, to the nth 

 segment, which is larger. Anal segment and legs brownish red; 2 

 dorsal and 4 lateral tubercles emitting a small tuft of black spines from 

 the apex. Length on hatching from the egg 3-16 inch long. When 

 ready to moult Y^ inch long. 



2nd Stage : Now a pale straw color with 5 fine black lines on dorsal 

 and sides; head and legs shining black; two black spots on sides of 

 prothoracic carapace, with a black spot on nth and another on last 

 segment and anal prolegs. The usual Saturninae rows of tubercles; 

 from the apices of which are some coarse spines and fine black hairs 

 ending with wavy white tips. During the second ecdysis the larvae 

 become very transparent. Length J/> inch in length. 



yd Stage : Colors and markings are the same as the 2nd, except 

 that the lateral black lines are nearly obliterated; the double row of 

 dorsal tubercles previously black, are now of a dull orange with black 

 spines, and are long, black, bristle tipped, 1-3 of its length white. 

 Head and feet shining black also spots on carapace and anal segment. 

 The whole space between the tubercles is regularly and systematically 

 covered with cream colored shining slightly raised shining tubercles, 

 which now give the larva a very striking appearance in great con- 

 tradistinction to trifenestrata as there the white tubercles are confined
