PYEALID^. 
gular one ; a pale brown tuft at end of cell ; two waved pale brown postmedial bands, 
inwardly- oblique from costa to subcostal nervure^ then concave to third median nervule and 
convex to outer margin. Hind wing with a dark medial band, sometimes very obscure ; the 
two waved postmedial bands evenly curved. Both wings with a dark lunulate antecilial line. 
Underside : ground-colour white suffused with smoky brown, the markings dark and obscure ; 
some specimens with a dark spot at end of cell of each wing. 
The larvae feed on a tree of the laurel tribe, and turn to pupre in a round ball of the 
leaves and web spun together, of about 3 inches diameter, about six larvje to each ball — not 
in long silken tubes, as does C. hockingi.

Male. Ochreous pink. Fore wing with a dark, nearly straight, and slightly outwardly- 
oblique antemedial band, with a paler inner margin ; a similar slightly curved and inwardly- 
oblique postmedial band with pale outer margin; a dark spot at end of cell. Hind wing 
pinker externally ; the two bands of fore wing continued across the wing but less distinct, 
curved and nearing each other at submcdian nervule, then bent inwards towards the base. 
Underside redder ; no antemedial band to either wing ; a dark speck at upper end of cell of 
hind wing. 
Stemmatophora? longipennis. (Plate CLIV. fig. 20.) 
Expanse \ inch.

Both wings with antecilial dark baud. Underside : fore wing suffused with black, especially 
towards base ; both wings with a dark spot at end of cell and a postmedial band bent out- 
wards to near outer margin at first median nervule, then to inner margin near outer and 
anal angles.

Expanse §-| inch.
