-f- + . Hindwing on both sides uni-coloured blackish-brown without spots. C. Jcambove. 
§§. Forewing without a spot in the discal cell or in 9 and 10, and consequently only with discal spots. 
Hindwing beneath without spots, above with 3 or 4 yellowish submarginal spots. 
1. The discal spots of the forewing as in the preceding species distributed among three, well 
separated groups (in 2 + 3, 4 + 5, 6 to 8). C. trisignatus. 
2. The discal spots of the forewing form a coherent yellow transverse band between the veins 
1 and 8. C. depiens. 
[3. Wings above uni-coloured blackish-brown without yellow spots or at most with traces of three small, 
yellowish subapical dots in 6 to 8 of the forewing. C. aegipan. 
B. Hindwing beneath with a white ground-colour and distinctly prominent black veins. Forewing beneath 
with white or yellowish marginal spots or marginal streaks. 
a. Hindwing beneath with orange-yellow basal, discal, and submarginal spots and thereby very variegated. 
—- Formosus-gxowp. 
*. The discal spots 4 and 5 of the forewing are small, nearing the margin, and together form a 
group entirely separated from the other discal spots. 
1. Forewing with a yellow spot in the discal cell, connected with a costal spot in 9 and 10. 
C. perexcellens. 
2. Forewing without a spot in the discal cell, beneath at the costal margin as far as the centre 
scaled yellow. C. carsoni. 
**. The discal spots 4 and 5 of the forewing are large and, with the other discal spots, form a coherent 
yellow transverse band, or they at least penetrate between the discal spots 3 and 6, touching 
them more or less. 
§. Hindwing beneath with a complete row of orange-yellow submarginal spots (in [1 b] 1 c 
to 7). Forewing, at least above, without a yellow spot in the discal cell. C. formosus. 
§§. Hindwing beneath without a submarginal spot in area 5. 
1. Hindwing beneath with a reddish-yellow submarginal spot in area 4. 
a. Forewing on both sides without a yellow spot in the apex of the discal cell and in area 
2. The yellow spots of the upper surface are reduced. C. tsadicus. 
b. Forewing with a yellow spot in the apex of the discal cell. The yellow spots above 
are large and all present. C. cooksoni. 
2. Hindwing beneath without a reddish-yellow submarginal spot in area 4. C. ogwanyi. 
[3. Discal and submarginal spots of the hindwing beneath of the ground-colour and therefore only 
noticeable by their black border-lines. Discal cell of forewing without spots. Hindwing above without 
markings. Forewing often with very much reduced yellowish-white discal spots (generally in 3, 
5, 6 to 8 distinct) and also above with whitish-yellow marginal spots. Posterior tibiae only with 
terminal spines. C. willemi. 
11. Hindwing beneath blackish with two distinctly prominent white longitudinal streaks, one in the discal 
cell and one in 1 c. 
a. Wings beneath with small triangular yellow marginal spots. Hindwing beneath at the hind-margin 
white. C. meninx. 
[3. Wings beneath without light marginal spots. Hindwing beneath at the hind-margin not white. 
C. syrinx. 
C. metis L. (77 k). In the South African form (Cape Colony to Transvaal and Angola ?) the hindwing metis. 
beneath is cpiite uni-coloured dark brown without any traces of discal spots, only with a minute yellow spot 
at the base of the costal margin. — In the whole of East Africa as far as Mt. Elgon, there occurs a race 
orientalis form. nov. in which the $ hindwing is spotted reddish as in the $, but without a yellow spot at the orientalis. 
base of the costal margin. 
C. quadrisignatus Btlr. only differs from metis by the marks stated in the review. Nyassa Land, quadrisig- 
Kilimandjaro. natus. 
C. midas Btlr. (= xanthometis Mab.) (77 b). Nyassa Land. midas. 
C. alticola sp. n. scarcely differs above from metis and its race orientalis , but it has a different underside alticola. 
of the hindwing. Central Africa: Volcano of Birunga, and on Mt. Elgon in East Africa. Only d'c? are known 
to me. 
C. malgacha Bsd. (= limpopona Wallengr.) is particularly recognizable by the lighter ground- malgacha. 
colour of the hindwing beneath. Cape Colony to Transvaal. Madagascar. 
C. kambove Neave (77 i). Forewing almost entirely as in metis, but without a yellow stripe at the Jcambove. 
base of the costal margin, and beneath without such a stripe in the discal cell. North Rhodesia.
