If this he considered a mere variety of C. theora, all idea 

 of separating species by pattern must be given up at once. 



14. C. plutonica, n. sp.,fig. 7. 



Allied to C. p)roserpina. Head and thorax dirty testa- 

 ceous ; scutellum black, piceous behind ; abdomen grey- 

 brown, becoming somewhat testaceous towards anus ; pectus 

 and venter black ; femora and coxae of legs blackish piceous ; 

 tibise and tarsi dark testaceous, golden pubescent ; tegmina 

 black ; costal margin and apex dull fulvous ; base and a 

 basi-subcostal pyriform streak ; an irregular transverse 

 trimacular band crossing first third of tegmina, a subcostal 

 spot at end of second third, and the veins on second tliird 

 testaceous ; wings fuscous, costa lutescent, base rufescent. 

 Length 17 mill ; expanse of tegmina 44. 



Corea {Arthur Adams). Type. B.M. 



Very like C. p)roserpina, but smaller, the tegmina differ- 

 ently marked, the clavus, instead of being entirely bright 

 fulvous, has an oval spot (the third of the transverse series) 

 in its centre.

Seems allied to C. proserjnna, but, according to Stal, very 

 nearly allied to C. Charon:
