136 CEL/ENORRHINUS. 



submedian interspace. Hindwing with the spots larger, and of a richer 

 (more orange) yellow colour; the alternate yellow portions of the cilia 

 also of a deeper orange. Underside, foreiving lacking the two diffused 

 whitish spots in the submedian interspace beyond the two obliquely- 

 placed transparent spots which are found in C. pyrrha ; otherwise as in 

 that species. Antenncv as in G. pyrrha. 



I have described this species from nineteen specimens in the 

 collections of Mr. A. V. Knyvett and myself. It appears to be very 

 constant. The sexes are very difficult to discriminate ; I have been 

 able to distinguish them only by an examination of the organs of 

 generation." (de Niceville, /. c.) 



189.-CEL/ENORRHINUS PATULA, DE N/CEVILLE. 



CeUvnorrhinns patula, de Niceville, Journ. Bomb. Nat. Hist. Soc., 

 vol. iv, p. 182, n. 19, pi. B, fig. 4, 9 (1889). 



" Habitat : Sikkim. 



Expanse : </, 2'2 ; 9 , 2*5 inches. 



Description : Male. Upperside, forewing with the white spots 

 forming the discal band smaller than in G. pyrrha and C. plagtfera, mihi, 

 no spot at the base of the second median interspace, the lower of the 

 two spots in the submedian interspace minute. Cilia anteriorly dark 

 brown, posteriorly pale yellow.' Rindwing with the yellow spots on the 

 disc larger and clearer than in either the above-mentioned species. 

 Cilia almost entirely yellow, instead of being prominently marked with 

 black at the ends of the veins. Antenna? with the shaft anteriorly 

 entirely pure silvery-white, in which respect it agrees with C. sumitra, 

 Moore, and C. pero, mihi. Female : Upperside, forewing with the lower 

 spot in the submedian interspace larger than in the male, as also are 

 the five subapical spots ; a minute spot at the base of the second median 

 interspace. Cilia posteriorly barely marked with pale yellow. Antennas 

 as in the male. 



C. patula differs from the description of C. sumitra in having two 

 spots in the submedian interspace of the forewing in both sexes instead 

 of one only ; the cilia are not alternately broadly brown and orange- 

 yellow, and the female of C. patula lacks the yellow costal spot above 

 the oblique discal series of white spots on the upperside of the forewing 

 described in C. sumitra. 



Described from a single pair from Sikkim. The female of C. patula 

 is unique, as far as I know, amongst this group of the genus in possess- 

 ing antennae that are anteriorly white, this being usually a male 

 character. I am certain of the sex of my type specimens, as I have 

 examined the primary sexual organs." (de Niceville^ I. c.)
