Antenne fuscous-grey. Thorax greyish-fuscous. Abdomen whitish-ochre- 
ous. Legs whitish-ochreous, anterior and middle pair suffused with greyish- 
fuscous. Forewings moderate, somewhat dilated posteriorly, costa moderately 
arched, hardly sinuate, apex rounded-acute, hindmargin oblique, straight or 
slightly sinuate ; rather light ochreous-grey-brown, costal half suffused with 
dark fuscous ; more or less irregularly irrorated with white on costal half, 
and towards base and hindmargin; a narrow irregular suffused white 
streak above middle from base to dise before middle, posteriorly obliquely 
truncate, sometimes almost interrupted at 1; a rather broad irregular suf- 
fused often nearly obsolete white transverse line from middle of costa to 
before middle of inner margin, passing through extremity of streak from 
base ; an elongate-oval longitudinal white spot in middle of disc, almost 
connected with basal streak ; above and rather beyond this the obsolescence 
of the white irroration causes a dark blotch on costa; a broad suffused 
white closely dentate transverse line from costa at 1 to inner margin at $, 
anteriorly finely edged with dark fuscous, somewhat bent inwards beneath 
costa and angulated outwards above middle; a suffused white somewhat 
triangular blotch on hindmargin immediately beneath apex, margined 
above by a dark spot, and suffusedly and indistinctly produced downwards 
towards anal angle; lower veins towards hindmargin indistinctly dark 
fuscous; four minute black dots on lower part of hindmargin; a slender 
dark fuscous hindmarginal line: cilia whitish-grey, somewhat mixed or 
very indistinctly barred with white, with a slender white basal line on upper 
half, produced into an apical bar. Hindwings whitish-grey-ochreous, hind 
margin narrowly suffused with light fuscous-grey ; cilia whitish-ochreous, 
with a faint grey line near base. 
Allied to C. fleauosellus, but differing widely in the white irroration and 
transverse lines, and the absence of a complete white longitudinal streak. 
Common on the hills near Christchurch ; also taken at Wellington, 
on the Kaikoura range, and in the Rakaia district; in February and 
March. 
Felder’s and Butler's figures are about equally poor, but can hardly 
refer to any other insect.
