partly or totally merged together with the marginal band, in which case the latter 



appears dilated between the veins. Hindwing : median bars C — R' more or less 



vestigial, discal bar C— SC- also visible ; postdiscal bars generally very feebly 

 marked, often absent, except bar C — SC^ which is mostly present ; the bars 

 concave distally, seldom joined at ends to the submarginal ones, which are concave 

 proximally ; the lower submarginal bars generally very short and feeble, sometimes 

 obsolete, the npper ones a little heavier at interuervular folds, bar C — SC^ heavy, 

 extended to margin of wing, mostly merged together with the postdiscal bar at 

 the veins ; admarginal line vestigial, especially between SC and R' ; abdominal 

 fold yellowish buff. 



Underside bnrnt nmber brown, faintly ochreons here and there in submedian 

 and discal interspaces ; glossy, except in submarginal region of forewing posteriorly 

 and in marginal region of hindwing ; median interspaces of both wings slightly 

 deeper in tint, band-like ; bars thin, subbasal to median ones thinly edged white ; 

 a line beginning at costal margin of forewing near apex, crossing M- 7 mm. from 

 its base, C of hindwing 7 mm. from its tip, M a little proximally of, or at, base 

 of MS and ending at abdominal margin 3 mm. from end of SM^, the line is dark 

 mummy or walnut brown, gently curved on forewing, straight on hindwing, with 



a rather indistinct, thin, greyish proximal border. Forewing : basal third or 



fourth of costal margin white ; no basal cell-spot, cell-bar 2 concave proximally, 

 bar 3 represented by two dots of about equal size, bar 4 very slightly oblique, 

 a little distal of base of M^, in most specimens distinctly angled in middle, the 

 angle pointing distad ; bar D' very thin ; submedian bar M^— (SM') just before 

 base of M^, not continuous with cell-bar 4 ; median bars M^ — ^SM^ concave distally, 

 bars R^ — M- much less so, mostly straight, much more proximal than in Ch. lichas, 

 bar R^ — M' continuous with bar R^ — R-\ or a little more proximal, median bars 

 SC^ — R^ forming a proximally concave line which is, at R-, 6 mm. distant from 

 cell ; two oblique discal bars SC* — R', the second mostly obsolete, the first also 

 occasionally absent, both pointing distad with hinder end, the one appearing as 

 •continuation of the other ; postdiscal bars triangular, tip of angles pointing distad, 

 but mostly the tip alone clearly marked as a black dot ; glossy grey scaling 



near margin rather more obvious than on disc. Hindwing : costal basal and 



subbasal bars absent, snbbasal bar C — SC^ also not marked ; cell-bar 2 concave 

 jiroximally ; submedian and median bars forming two regularly curved, parallel, 

 lines which are not, or slightly, broken at the veins, the median line either touching 

 in middle the straight, discal, baud-like line, or up to 2 mm. distant from it ; 

 postdiscal bars very faint, concave distally ; submarginal bars also feebly marked 

 concave proximally, bordered distally with white lines or dots, both the postdiscal 

 and submarginal series parallel to outer margin, much less broken at R^ than 

 in lichas ; admarginal line obsolete ; outer margin of wing more triangular than 

 in Ch. lichas, tail longer. 



?. Wi7i(is above yellow ochraceous, more tawny ochraceons distally and at 



base. Forewing : median bars R- — M^ close to cell, bars SO^ — R^ as heavy as in 



S , discal bars SC^ — M' present, sometimes also bar SC* — SC isolated, bars R- — M' 

 more proximal than the upper ones ; a complete postdiscal series of patches, upper 

 three more distal than the four others, size variable ; admarginal band also variable 

 in width, the markings at apex of wing more or less merged together (as in figure), 



or more or less isolated. Hindwing : median bars C — R^ more or less vestigial, 



as is bar D ; discal line well marked down to R', then vestigial ; postdiscal
