 orange, becoming gradually more intensely crimson to outer margin ; four diffused blackish submarginal 

 s])ot.s on nervures, and live fonning a double zigzag between nervures on disc, the upjierniost very 

 indistinct ; below onmge, irroratcd with crimson ; frontwings with a discal series of nine blackish 

 spots succeeded by a broad band of rosy lilac ; outer margin orange ; a large silver spot encircled 

 by a black line, and split up into six unequal parts at end of cell ; liindwuigs with two silver sj)otxS 

 placed obliquely beyond cell, and surrounded by a series of diffused blackish spots, which externally 

 form a semicircular band bounded internally by a reddish suffusion ; succeeded on disc by a broail 

 band of rosy lUac including ill-defined blackish lunules on second median and subcostal interspaces ;

 (Iviiade-t, was at firet characterised by Dr. IIerricli-Scha;ffer as a variety of C. Thaledrix. Hi.s description 

 nms ivs follows : — " Nearly allied to T/ialciirin, same size and contoiu', black central spot of frontwings 

 smaller, encircled with orange red, which circling is connected upon the subcostal with the larger, less 

 sharply defined, glowing red central patch, wliich reaches as far as the broad orange margin. 



The hindwings are glowing orange gradually becoming darker towards the suddenly Ijrighter 

 margin ; no black spots on the margin. 



Underside agrees better with im/mitr, it is orange, finely and densely dusteil with lake-red, the 

 .spots of similar more clo.soly packed dustings, both the silver .spots arc as small as in llubner's brighter 

 figure." 



In the above description I have only one fault to find — tlie circling of the black spot is connected 

 with the larger central patch upon the lower disco-cellular, and not on the subcostal nervure. I mercly 

 mention this because it put me out considerably when determining the species. 



" H. Gundlach found several examples of both species (C. Avellaneda and C Thahinfrix), without 

 intermediates, in some places more of one, in others of the other species. I have more accurately 

 defined the male in Gorrbl. 1862, p. 119, under 7Vi(//''«/*v'.<. 1 am, however, sorry to say that I have 

 not yet received the female." H. >Sch. in Corrbl. 1864.
