This insect is so extremely close to C. mycerina, that it would 

 not be at all surprising to find that it was an occasional sport of 

 that species ; it is almost too rare for a seasonal form. The chief 

 differences are in the outline of the wings, the primaries having 

 the costal margin less arched, the secondaries having the outer 

 margin regularly dentate-sinuate : the pattern and colouring on 

 both surfaces are nearly the same as in G. mycerina ; but on the 

 under surface the darker bandings are less clearly defined.
