cJ. lV!>iffS above : basal area bazel-cbestnut, gradually sbading into the reddish 



chestnut outer area, which has a maroon purple tint, especially on bindwing. 



Forewing : similar in markings to CA. varanes, but postdiscal spots rather smaller, 

 hence the series of postdiscal and submarginal interstitial s])ots closer together, 

 these series of spots either of nearly tlie same colour as the base of the wing, or tawny 

 ochraceons ; outer edge scalloped ; fringe white except at ends of veins. Hind- 

 wing : of the postdisco-snbmarginal series of brownish black spots of CA. varanes 

 only the upper two are marked, small, the others vestigial or absent ; two white 

 submarginal dots between M= and SM" more or less conspicuous ; black admarginal 

 lunules large ; interspaces between them and fringe bluisli white ; fringe buft'; edge 

 of wing conspicuously scalloped. 



Underside bistre brown, bars in shape and position similar to those of 



CA. varanes. Forewing : bar D complete, with a white proximal border which 



gradually fades away proximally; discal line as strongly angled as in Cli.fi(lvescens, 

 slightly concave between R- and M', then somewhat convex, with a heavy white 

 outer border from SC^ to (SM'), the white scaling occupying the whole area between 



discal line and postdiscal dots, but gradually sparser distally. Hindwing : discal 



line convex, very slightly broken at some of the veins, two upper partitions some- 

 what concave, with a heavy white outer border which is sharjily limited between 

 C and SC- and again between M' and SM-, while between SU^ and M' it is much 

 broader and gradually fades away, the postdiscal-marginal area thinly shaded with 

 white scaling ; eye-spot C — SC sharply marked, composed of a white centre 

 surrounded by three rings ; blackish brown, bistre, dark chestnut, eye-sjwts SC'- -M' 

 vestigial, the centres of spots M'— SM- white, transverse, tbe proximal portions of 

 the wings of these latter spots marked or obsolete, the distal portions obsolete ; 

 black admarginal spots heavy, but widely separate, with heavy, transverse, white 

 outer borders ; edge of wing buff and fringe white, except at extremities of veins ; 

 tail of even width, not distinctly spatulate, narrower than in Cli. varanes, 6 to 7 mm. 

 long, tooth M^ prominent. 



?. Similar to S, ground colour paler, the reddish chestnut colour of the 

 upperside less extended. 



Length of forewing : cJ, 36 — 40 mm. 

 „ „ ? , 42 — 45 mm. 



Sexual organs similar to those of Ch.fulvescens and roranes, clasper resembling 

 more that oi fulrescens.
