In some female specimens from China the ground-colour of the secondaries 
is greenish-grey with a veiy slight ferruginous tint only observed in certain

This species is fairly abundant at Chia-kou-ho, Huang-mu-chang, and 
Omei-shan in Western China at elevations ranging from about 4000 feet 
to 7000 feet, and also occurs, at lower elevations, at Ichang in Central 
China. 
According to M. de NicevOle C. hihlis is common up to 7000 feet in 
Sikkim, Assam, and the Khasi Hills. It is also recorded from Upper Burma, 
Mergui, and Perak, and from Hainan, China.
