C. rufa Hmps. (131), like the preceding, but on the forewing the brown cloud not sharply defined, 
but spreading in every direction and obliterating practically all white except at base and in terminal area: 
forewing along costa and hindwing pale ochreous. Ceylon. 
b. Subgenus: Deltapterum. 
Like Celamas.s ., but the hindwing of d projected to a blunt short tail at anal angle. 
C. peguensis Hmps. Ochreous, marked with brown, easily recognized by the sharp-pointed lobe formed 
by the anal portion of the hindwing. Hindwing white, brownish at margin. Farther India and Java. It 
seems that only dd are known. Expanse: 20 mm. 
c. Subgenus: Epizeuctis. 
Antennae of d with sessile fascicles of cilia, hindwings of d underneath with tufts 
of scent-scales in anal area. 
C. internella Wkr. {— pascua Swinh., quadrimaculata Heyl .) (13 b) approaches in its markings the 
species of the following groups. Forewing grey-white, shaded with ochreous distally, with heavy dark brown 
costal spots at base, before and behind the middle, and with a few spots arranged in a row in marginal 
area. Hindwing dull dark brown. In its external apparence it recalls somewhat the Palaearctic innocua Btlr. 
(= costimacula Stgr). Larva very gaudily coloured, yellow, red on back in front and behind, with black 
sides from 4 th to 7 th segments; from 2 nd to 11 th segment a violet lateral stripe. Lives in the stems of Rubus 
and on Durio zibethinus, and weaves a boat-shaped cocoon with the help of fragments of the foodplant. Not 
particularly scarce. 
C. fovifera Hmps. (13 i). Forewings with an elongate, transparent groove at the end of the cell; 
white, with a curved band from cell to median vein near base; a broken black antemedian line oblique from 
costa to below cell, where it is angled, obsolete under submedian fold; in the cell dark patches of raised 
scales; from costa to vein 4 an interrupted, irregular, serrate postmedian line, first out-, then incurved. Hind¬ 
wing faintly shaded with dark brown-yellow at the margin. Queensland (Dodd). Our figure was taken from 
a specimen in the British Museum. 
d. Subgenus: Aradrapha. 
Antennae o f c? w i t h sessile fascicles of cilia, but hindwings of d without any scent- 
scales in anal area underneath. 
C. taeniata Snell. (= fragilis Swinh.. — mesozona Luc) (13 g). Milky-white, forewing along costa and 
terminal area shaded with greyish, traversed in the middle by a regular, brown band, before which a 
triangular costal spot. From Punjab over Ceylon and the Malay Archipelago as far as South Australia, and 
eastward to Southern China. Our figure was made from a specimen I took at Kauloong (opposite Hongkong) 
selected on account of its especially distinct median band. Javanese specimens have the band more delicate 
and less sharply defined. Larva on ’Ulingi‘ (Timbristylis miliacea); imago emerged after 4 days (Piepers). 
C. euryzonata limps. (13 a) differs form taeniata principally in having the brown median band widening 
distally to twice its size, and the terminal area of the hindwing suffused with fuscous. Described from Sumatra. 
C. erythrostigmata Hmps. (— mediozonata Hmps) (13 m) is likewise allied to taeniata, having, however, 
in controdistinction to the preceding form, the brown median band widening inwards, encroaching upon the 
white basal area. ? has the median area of forewings more brown and the marginal area more deeply 
shaded with grey-brown. — From the Himalayas and the Naga Hills, in Assam; also from Borneo. 
C. fuscibasis B.-Bak. (13g). Forewings divided into two halves; the inner grey-brown all but a 
white basal spot; the outer half white, with an incomplete semi-band before the costa and an undulate 
submarginal band. Hindwings brownish in terminal area. New Guinea. 
C. lucidalis Wkr. (= dimidiata Wkr) ( 1 3 g) is the very reverse of the preceding form, having the 
outer half of forewing brown, the inner white with small costal spots. Ceylon and Sunda Islands.
