C. flavocinctus Nic. (164 b) is the largest species of the genus, unless the figure of it he not too much flavocinctus 
enlarged; easily recognisable by the narrow, torn discal band of the forewing, and by the hindwing being very 
much intermixed with ochreous-yellow. From Sikkim; unknown to me in nature. 
C. orbiferus Elw. (164 b), on the contrary, is very small, above almost uni-coloured dark brown, orbiferus. 
the white median band of the forewing broad, short and coherent; it is somewhat like sumitra, but easily recog¬ 
nisable by the whitish central spots of the forewing being united into a large somewhat irregular oval spot. 
Borneo. 
C. nigricans Nic. (Vol. I, pi. 84 d) is still smaller than -orbiferus and discernible by the deeper black nigricans. 
ground-colour of the upper surface; it occurs in the north-western ranges of the Himalaya, where it also passes 
over to the palearctic region. Cf. Vol. I, p. 333. 
C. chaniunda Mr. (164 b) is still larger and with broader wings than orbiferus, otherwise similar chamunda. 
to it, but the band of the forewing, which forms a central oval in orbiferus, extends here from the costa to 
the anal angle. Antenna above black with a black and white club, beneath dotted dark. From Sikkim to 
Burmah. — balukinus Elw. (164 b) is the large form with broad bands from the Kinabalu in Borneo, and rufi- balukinus. 
comis Mob., which (in contrast with its name) has not red antennae but such as the type, is the somewhat ruficornis. 
smaller, otherwise very similar form from Java and Bali, which Fruhstorfer found yet at an altitude of 
4000 ft. on the Volcano of Gedeh. 
C. spilothyrus Fldr. (164 b) is presumably only the representative of chamunda in Ceylon, discernible spilothy- 
by the entire absence of all the spots of the hindwing also beneath and by the costal last spot of the oblicpie rus 
band on the forewing being yellow instead of white. — area Ploiz { — fusca Hmps.), from South India to Bengal, area. 
is quite similar, but the costal last spot of the oblique band is not yellow but white. 
C. anoma is quite similar to orbiferus (164 b), but it differs from the latter, from asmara arfd other anoma. 
similar species in the absence of the white dots between the radial branches of the forewing. From Celebes. 
C. asmara Btlr. (Vol. I, pi. 84 e) is on both sides quite uni-coloured brown and spotless, except asmara. 
the whitish hyaline spots of the forewing, the number and shape of which is exhibited in the figure. The typical 
form comes from West China and is palearctic (cf. Vol. I, p. 333), but geographical races of it are widely 
distributed in the Indo-Australian Region. — goto Mob., from Kiu-shu and perhaps South China, seems to goto. 
differ from typical asmara merely by its somewhat smaller size, and is separated from asmara neither by Elwes 
nor by Mat sumitra. — Nor are palajava Stgr. from Palawan, conserta Nic. from Assam, and cacus Nic. from 
Tenasserim to be separated from it, according to Elwes. — In aditta Fruhst., from Siam, the forewing is adiita. 
not quite uni-coloured, but towards the margin darker, proximad lighter brown; before the apex 2 minute 
dots; the central band of spots does not extend to the costa; its lowest spot is the largest of all, the upper¬ 
most (smallest) being knob-shaped. — ayata Fruhst., from West Sumatra, is blackish-brown, hindwing with ay at a. 
dark brownish-green hair. 3 subapical dots, larger than in aditta, the central oblique band twice as broad, its 
hindmost spot with more roundish, less sharp angles. — milinda Fruhst. (164 c as malinda), from Java, is milinda. 
without any subapical spots; the white central band of the forewing is distally more white, proximad more 
hyaline. The total impression of Javanese asmara is almost that of a Coladenia. — Larva green with a light 
lateral stripe and a red-brown or dark brown head, in Java between leaves of Clerodendrum fragrans; pupa 
greyish, in front greenish with brown wing-cases and dark eyes; head with an obtuse conical continuation. 
The imagines are rather common in the southern parts of then range. 
C. dhanada Mr. resembles affinis (164 d) and superficially recalls a Coladenia; the spots on the forewing dhanada. 
are honey-coloured and form a central group; before the apex a small short band of 3 yellow dots, at a great 
distance from them a fourth between the radials. The hindwing only exhibits dull macular shadows. Beneath 
the macular band of the forewing reaches to the costa. Sikkim. — andamanica Wood-Mas. shows the central andamani- 
spots of the forewing still more concentrated, whereby such a great resemblance to the Coladenia is produced, 
that it was described as a form of Col. dan. andamanica is said to be a distinct species owing to differences 
in the male genitals, but it is somewhat doubtful, since it is also mentioned from the continent (Cherra- 
Punji). — saturatus Elw. (164 c) is the hardly different Javanese form which, however, was likewise regarded saturatus. 
as a distinct species. — dentatus Elw. (164 c), from Borneo, differs from it in the more closely confluent honey- dentatus. 
coloured central spots of the forewing. — snelleni Fruhst. represents the species in Celebes; it is almost still snelleni. 
more similar to the Colad. dan, but it is at once discernible by the erect (in dan porrect) 3 rd palpal joint. - 
Larva rather stout and short, dull greyish-green, with a light dorsal and lateral stripe and a dark subdorsal 
streak, with lighter ring-indentations, the head being lustrous black. The food-plant is not known, but the 
imago not rare. 
C. fulvescens Elw. (164 c). Above and beneath of a beautiful chestnut-colour, above marked ruddle- fulvescens. 
red, the central group of spots large; of the 3 subapical dots the middle one is,removed towards the base. 
Borneo; the figured specimens from the Kina-Balu.
