Sericeous greyish brown ; the general aspect of C. squalida 
of New Zealand, but the primaries more acuminate at apex, 
the secondaries with irregularly dentated outer margin; the 
central belt of the primaries having more nearly the outline 
of C. capitata of Europe, but black-edged, crossed by black 
lines, and enclosing a black discocellular dot followed by a 
whitish nebula; beyond this belt one or two ill-defined 
crinkled transverse lines, followel by a series of black or 
blackish spots, bounded by submarginal white lunules; 
nervures on external area pale sandy brownish, interrupting 
an externally white-edged black undulated marginal line ; 
fringe black-brown at base, white, tipped and spotted with 
blackish brown, externally: secondaries paler than primaries 
excepting towards outer margin; the external area being 
bounded internally by two or three scarcely discernible 
parallel lines slightly darker than the ground-colour ; on the 
abdominal margin these lines terminate as blackish lunules ; 
a short white dash at anal angle, being the last of a series of 
badly defined submarginal spots; marginal line and fringe 
as in primaries. Wings below with black oblique disco- 
cellular dashes or spots, one in each wing; an angulated 
zigzag blackish discal line and a whitish badly defined zigzag 
submarginal line ; marginal line and fringe almost as above ; 
costal area of primaries and whole of secondaries irrorated 
with whitish ; tibia and tarsi dark grey-brown, banded with

The female in the present series is paler than in Felder’s 
figure, the primaries being stramineous instead of deep 
ochreous. ‘The male has shining pale copper-brown primaries 
varied with pale ochreous on basal area and just beyond the 
cell; the upper portion of the central belt is also of this 
colour; the latter is represented by two slightly divergent 
nearly straight grey stripes, the outer one of which is inter-
