In its general character this species closely resembles C. orithea. The specimen in 
the Hopeian Collection is a male, having the fore wings triangular and pointed at the 
tip, and the oval patch of rough black scales on the upperside of the base of the hind 
wing, and the tuft of luteous hairs on the hind margin of the underside of the fore 
wing, whilst two individuals in the British Museum, from Espirito Santo, want these 
characteristic sexual markings. In these two specimens, however, the antenne are 
slightly bipectinated, proving the anomalous fact that simple antenne may be 
characteristic of the males of a species of which the female has those organs more or 
less pectinated. 
In the Hopeian specimen the coloured patch of the hind wings is elongate-conic, 
broadest at the costa, with its sides nearly even and straight, and terminating in a 
somewhat flesh-coloured streak extending nearly to the anal angle; but in the British- 
Museum specimens the outer margin of this blue patch is somewhat more scalloped. 
The terminal joint of the palpi is very short and clavate. On the underside the wings 
are brown, the basal portion being only slightly tinted with ochreous buff; the fore 
wings without the pale marks at the base, the central one entire and white with a 
pearly tinge, the apical margin nearly as on the upper side. The under wings beneath 
have a slightly defined, central, oblique, waved fascia of palish lilac, preceded towards 
the base by two slender, brown, dentated, waved lines. The patch of luteous hairs on 
the underside of the fore wings is covered by the costal margin of the hind wing, and 
forms a triangular patch lying flat on the wing, and reaching to the first branch of the 
median vein. Beyond the fascia the hind wing is uniform brown with a small 
pale triangular patch between the anal angle and the tail, which is brown and tipped 
with white.

The remarkable elongated and bipectinated antennz of the female in this species 
distinguish it at once from all its congeners. As the wings do not exhibit the secondary 
sexual characters noticed in the males of the preceding species, I am compelled to
