8 LEPIDOPTEBA INDICA. 



near to the outer margin of the wing, the third spot coequal in size to the first, and 

 placed half as near to the second spot as it is to the first — all these spots lustrous semi- 

 transparent white. Cilia fuscous. Hindwing bearing large rounded bright chrome- 

 yellow spots in three series, the upper of two, the middle of four, and the lower of five ; 

 the base and abdominal margin of the wing clothed with long yellow setae. Cilia 

 anteriorly fuscous, posteriorly and along the abdominal margin bright chrome-yellow. 

 Underside, both wings of the ground colour of a duller, more hair-brown shade. 

 Forewing with an obscure dull yellow streak at the base of the discoidal cell ; the inner 

 margin sharply bounded anteriorly by the sub-median nervure pale ochreous ; the spots 

 as above. Hindwhyj with the spots as above, but rather larger and of a duller shade of 

 yellow ; some short obscure dull yellow streaks at the base and along the abdominal 

 margin of the wing ; an additional irrorated spot near the apex of the wing. Antennae 

 with the shaft and club anteriorly dull ochreous, posteriorly fuscous ; thorax 

 concolorous with the wings. Abdomen narrowly but prominently striped with 

 yellow. 



It is difficult to say to which species D. clitus is nearest allied, though perhaps it 

 exhibits a greater resemblance to C. flavocincta, de Niceville, than to any other species. 

 The disposition of the spots on both wings is very distinctive, those on the forewing 

 being apparently scattered evenly over the entire surface, in the hindwing arranged in 

 regular rows. Described from a single example in Mr. H. J. Elwes' collection obtained 

 by Mr. W. Doherty in July or August, 1889, in the Naga Hills, Assam, at an elevation 

 of 5,000-8,000 feet, (de Niceville.)

Watson made this a synonym to C. aspersa, Leech , from China ; it is certainly 

 superficially very like it ; but aspersa, the type of which (a male) in the B. M. is unique, 

 has a pure white antennae from the l)ase of the shaft to the tip of the club, as in 

 C. leucocera, KoUar.
