than the second posterior cell, their bases nearly level, the first 

 fork-cell is contracted at the apex, its stem as long as the cell ; 

 stem of the second longer than the cell ; supernumerary cross-

Length. — 5 to 5 * 5 mm. 



Habitat. — Deesa (Major C. G. Nurse). 



Time of capture. — January (1902) and August (1901). 



Observations. — Described from three $ 's sent me by Major 

 Nurse. They show some variation in wing markings, especially 

 in the spots under the large costal spot, and in the size of the 

 wings. The first sub-marginal cell is markedly contracted at the 

 apex. The abdominal scales are not so dense as in most other 

 Cellias, and are rather thinner in form. 



One specimen has the wing marking slightly different on the 

 two wings.
