C. jENea, n.sp. 



(J. Upperside. — Primaries with the costa from the base, in- 

 creasing in width towards apex and half filling cell, dark purplish- 

 brown; apical region and outer margin very widely occupying 

 nearly a third of wing, the same ; rest of wing quite to base and 

 hindmargin, shining golden copper. Secondaries : costal and 

 apical area dull brown, rest of wing clouded coppery, with an 

 outer narrow marginal brown border ; extreme abdominal border 

 pale brown ; anal angle caudate. 



Underside. — Fine light reddish-brown, with dark brown mark- 

 ings. Primaries : a spot near base within cell, and another 

 immediately below this ; a double spot about centre of cell, imme- 

 diately below which are two others transversely ; a double spot at 

 end of cell, and two indistinct ones below, and one above ; beyond 

 this a transverse row of five heart-shaped spots forming an irre- 

 gular band ; a submarginal rather indistinct broken line. Seconda- 

 ries : a basal row of three spots ; a spot about centre of cell, and 

 one immediately above this; a transverse row of marks, sometimes 

 forming spots, sometimes parallel white lines, in an irregular man- 

 ner, about the middle ; beyond this three irregular parallel waved 

 lines, the last submarginal ; a marginal irregular indistinct line of 

 ochreous-red, most distinct at tail. 



^. Upperside. — Primaries very much as in (J, but the coppery 

 discal area not shining, the outer edge of it rounded, corresponding 

 with contour of wing, which is considerably convex ; the outer 

 dark margin extending also further along hindmargin. Secondaries 

 with the costal and apical brown area extending more into wing ; 

 with the anal outer area dull reddish-yellow, extending quite to 

 margin and for about one-third into wing, where it is continued to 

 base only along the nervures, the spaces between being reddish- 

 brown ; extreme abdominal margin pale brown ; a mai'ginal 

 black line ; at anal angle just above line between nervules two 

 black crescent-shaped marks ; outer contour extremely convex. 



Underside. — Light yellowish-brown, with marks as in ^, but 



rather less distinct ; an orange tinge in disc of primaries. Thorax 



and abdomen, above black, beneath light grey.
