portion is represented by two or three elongate streaks or rows 

 of dots ; an elongate narrow blotch, along costa about three-fourths; 

 sometimes there are faint hindmarginal dots, or the veins are 

 posteriorly lined with darker, or the entire apical half of wing 

 beyond central fascia is suffused with reddish-ochreous : cilia 

 whitish-ochreous or ochreous, with a dark fuscous line, and a 

 dark spot at anal angle. Hindwings whitish-grey, towards costa 

 whitish, more grey towards inner margin, spotted with darker 

 grey : cilia whitish, faintly ochreous-tinged towards apex, with a 

 dark grey line. 



$ . 9"-llJ". Head, thorax, andforewings more suffused with 

 brownish-ochreous ; forewings more elongate, often irrorated 

 with darker ; markings as in male but more indistinct and 

 suffused ; outer edge of basal patch generally forming a small 

 subquadrate dark fuscous spot on inner margin : cilia pale 

 ochreous, becoming reddish-ochreous towards apex, with a dark 

 fuscous line suffused at apex and anal angle. Hindwings hardly 

 darker than in male, somewhat ochreous-tinged at apex. 



This species is very variable both in size and markings, so that 

 it is difficult to include all the forms under one description, but 

 there can be no doubt that all the varieties belong to the same 

 species. In form of wing it is similar to C. responsana and C. 

 mneniosynana, but the costal fold of the male is less strong thau 

 in the former, and stronger than in the latter of those species ; 

 from both the male is generally distinguishable by the clear pale 

 ochreous groundcolour, and more or less ochreous-tinged markings; 

 most of the varieties are also peculiar to this species, and in the 

 normal form the slenderness of the central fascia towards costa is 

 a good distinguishing characteristic. The female may be known 

 by its uniform brownish-ochreous hue. Small pale specimens of 

 the male are very similar to Tortrix glaphyrana, but the presence 

 of the costal fold affords a ready test. 



Larva moderalely elongate, cylindrical, rather attenuated 

 posteriorly, active ; dull yellowish-green, spots hardly lighter ;
