half below the cell. Reniform macula dark brown, oval. Hindwing yellowish grey, darker at the margin. 30 mm. 
1 $ from Sumatra. 
Eu. transversa Candeze. Body brown. Forewing light ochreous at the base, darker in the distal half, both 
separated by an oblique white band extending from % costal margin to the middle of the inner margin, edged 
with red-brown on both sides from the costal margin to vein 3. Small white and red-brown preapical undulate 
lines at the costal margin. A red-brown diffuse spot from the angle of the exterior line to the middle of the distal 
margin in grey surroundings. Submarginal line white, undulate, partly edged with brown inside. Hinclwing 
silvery grey. 24 mm. 1 $ from Annam. 
4. Genus: Clilumetia Wkr. 
Proboscis feeble, palpi long porrect. Antennae of $ typically with short pectinations on one side, apically 
ciliated. Thorax tuftless, abdomen with short central tufts. Type: transversa Wkr. from India. About half of 
the species are Indo-Australian, half African. 
1. Antennae of <$ strongly b i pectinated, ciliated at the apex. 
Ch. apicenigra Warr. Very similar to the African lichenosa Hrnps. (Vol. 15, pi. 16 f). Body brownish. 
Forewing greyish ochreous with brownish olive spots. Interior line indistinct, double, straight, outward. Ring- 
macula flat, edged with dark. Reniform macula oblique, oblong, dark brown, edged with white. Median line 
diffuse, excurved around the cell, dark olive brown behind it at the costal margin. Exterior line double, black, 
dentate at veins 8, 6, 4 and 1, the dents outward, pale, the dent at vein 1 conspicuous. Behind it a pale brown 
band, edged with white outside, turning olive brown below vein 3. A black triangle at the costal margin near 
the apex encloses a white streak. Submarginal line white, broader towards the inner margin, cut above vein 4 
by a bent dark diffuse spot. Hindwing white in the basal third, the rest dark brown. 24 mm. 1 <$ from Penang. 
Ch. euryptera Hmps. (32 h). Thorax and forewing creamy white, pale brown in its centre and at the margin. 
Interior line double, red-brown, indistinct, outward. Median line red-brown, widely excurved around the discal 
spot. The reniform macula is a small brown, white-edged spot. Exterior line finely double, brown, filled with 
white, oblique, undulate, dark brown behind it. Submarginal line whitish, dentate, edged with a diffuse light 
colour inside. Hindwing dark brown, brownish ochreous at the margin. <$ 22 mm. New Guinea. 
Ch. duplicilinea Wkr. (32 f). Body and forewing reddish brown. Interior line indistinct, double, some¬ 
what oblique as far as below the cell. Reniform macula narrowly white. Median line from vein 6, behind the 
cell, oblique. Exterior line indistinctly double, excurved behind the cell, then inward. A parallel line behind 
it, edged with white outside. A black spot and a few small ones behind it below the costal margin. Submarginal 
line finely white. Hindwing dark brown, lighter at the base. 26 mm. Although it was described in 1865, only 
2 $5 seem to be known. Assam, Borneo. 
Ch. hampsoni B.-Bak. (31 b). The species looks somewhat different, forewing red-brown as far as the 
exterior line, pale grey at the inner margin. Interior line double, hemochrome, the branches distantly separated, 
filled with black below the cell. Coniform macula broad, extending to the cell, ring-macula white, edged with 
dark, elliptical, reniform macula edged with black, irregularly shaped. Two reddish streaks at the middle of 
the costal margin and a reddish undulate line from the lower cell-angle to the inner margin, a diffuse blackish 
brown line behind the cell. Exterior line black, outward as far as vein 6, once more angled at vein 3, then in¬ 
ward, whitish behind it. Submarginal line black, dentate, blackish behind it below vein 6, then blackish before 
it from vein 3. Hindwing dark brown. '24 mm. 1 $ from New Guinea. 
Ch. alternans Mr. Forewing dark red-brown at the base as far as the vertical double black interior line, 
the rest yellowish brown, a feeble white radial streak through the cell. Reniform macula yellowish white, ex¬ 
curved in front, then vertical. Submarginal line broad, spot-like, white, from the costal margin obliquely to 
vein 3. Hindwing smoky brown. Forewing of $ slightly tinged with olive green. 22—25 mm. Sikkim. 
Ch. multilineata Wilem. & West. Similar to alternans. Forewing greyish brown, somewhat yellowish, 
with 2 reddish radial streaks in the cell-end and below vein 2. The dark interior line double, excurved in the 
middle, then inward. Ring-macula and reniform macula edged with dark. Two dark lines at the middle of the 
costal margin, fused towards the inner margin. Exterior band dark brown, faded, broadly edged with greyish 
brown outside, enclosing a dark line. Submarginal stripe reddish, enclosing a lighter band. Hindwing dark 
brown, a lighter submarginal band near the anal angle. 26—28 mm. Philippines. 
Ch. transversa Wkr. (= guttiventris Wkr., corticea Snell.) (31b). Forewing reddish yellowish brown, 
similar to alternans. Interior line double, dark, the basal area not darker. Ring-macula and reniform macula 
small, pale, a dark median line between them. Exterior line double, red-brown inside, black outside, somewhat
