 Lep. Het. xiii. p. 1091 (1857). 



Differs from C. lohuligera in its more rounded primaries, 

 with more numerous undulated brown lines ; the pale 

 stripes on the secondaries less distinct ; wings below alto- 

 gether darker; the secondaries sordid pale buff, the 

 markings much more sharply defined than in C. lohuli- 

 gera; from C. colliquens (Avhich has little in common 

 with Guenee's species) it differs in its lilacine instead of 

 green or greenish primaries, upon Avhich the lines are 

 less irregularly waved, and not quite so distinctly undu- 

 lated ; the secondaries are also paler, less fuliginous, with 

 much better-defined pale discal streak from the anal 

 angle ; Avings below considerably paler throughout : ex- 

 panse of wings 1 inch 6 lines.
