CIKROCHROA. 421 



short similarly coloured streak above it in interspace 5 on the 

 fore wing ; a transverse postdiscal series of pale ochraceous spots 

 in the interspaces below 5 on the fore wing, complete on the hind 

 wing ; on the latter wing these are closely contiguous and mar- 

 gined inwardly by a prominent series of black spots, extending on 

 the fore wing only to interspace 1 ; an inner transverse sub- 

 terminal series of pale ochraceous lunules, those on the fore wing 

 transversely very short ; finally, an obscure outer subterminal pale 

 line. Underside very pale greyish ochraceous, the markings as on 

 the upperside but faint and blurred, except the transverse series 

 of black spots, which are as prominent as on the upperside. 

 Antennae, head, thorax and abdomen dark brown ; beneath, the 

 palpi, thorax and abdomen very pale ochraceous. Male sex-mark: 

 veius 5 and 6 on the fore and veins 6 and 7 on the hind wing with 

 a broad edging of pale specialized scales on each side, extending 

 from close to the bases of those veins nearly up to the postdiscal 

 series of ochraceous spots.

Hab. Tenasserim ; extending in the Malayan Subregion as far 

 as the Philippines.

(S . Closely resembles C.fasciata. Upperside differs as follows : 

 ground-colour ochraceous, a very broad medial transverse area 

 on both fore and hind wings much brighter ochraceous yellow, 

 terminal margins of both wings dark brown. The darker basal 

 area very sharply defined, on the fore wiug angulated broadly 

 outwards in interspace 4 ; the postdiscal transverse series of 

 ochraceous spots so conspicuous in C. fasciata coalescing with the 

 broad, bright ochraceous, transverse medial area noted above, but 

 the transverse series of black spots and the subterminal markings 

 as in C. fasciata. Underside similar to that in C. fasciata but 

 much yellower and paler. Male sex-mark as in C. fasciata. 



Exp. $ 45 mm. (!•&"). 



Hab. Tenasserim. 



This, as Moore remarks, is probably only the dry-season form 

 of C. fasciata ; but specimens seem to be very rare in collections, 

 so that there is not enough material to judge from. The general 

 appearance is strikingly different.
