Omrora (August) and Ehanda (September). Sixteen male 

 examples. 



Though so differently marked on the upperside, this species 

 exhibits on the underside very close alliance to C. ephyra (Godt.), 

 the chief distinctions consisting in the partial reproduction of the 

 white markings of the upperside, and in the hind wings the better 

 definition of the ferruginous discal lunulate streak, and the presence 

 of some whitish scaling immediately beyond the median irregular 

 bluish-black Une. Exp. al. 2 in. 5-8 lin. 



A single male, sent to me in 1883, was taken by Mr. F. C. 

 Selous on the Gwailo River, South Mashuna-land,
