collineata. C. collineata Warr. Forewings rose-red-yellow, somewhat suffused with olive. Lines dark olive and 
parallel. Inner line from % of costa to centre of inner margin, slightly curved; outer line from centre of 
costa to anal angle. Submarginal line rose, anteriorly an undulate dark olive line to anal angle. A large olive- 
green spot on costa from before the outer line to sub marginal line. Hindwings orange-red. One d from the 
Solomon Is. 
plana. C. plana Warr. Red-yellow deepening to red-brown at outer line. Inner line indicated only by a double 
black spot at y 3 of inner margin. Outer line double, reddish, indistinct, vertical, inclining slightly outwards, 
from 1 d of costa to ] \ of inner margin*), with black scales at inner margin, like the inner line. Outer margin 
somewhat reddish. Hindwings orange-red, paler at base. One $ from Queensland. 
appro xi- C. approximata Warr. Forewings lilac-red, lines yellow-red, a similar spot near base at inner margin. 
mala.. j nner ]j ne f rom % of costa to centre of inner margin, indistinctly double. Also outer line is double, the inner 
of the two oblique and diffuse, from centre of costa to vein 8, angulated in a rightangle there and somewhat 
outwards, the outer one straight. Submarginal line distinct. Hindwings orange-red. One $ from New Guinea. 
24. Genus; Carea Wkr. 
Palpi shorter than in preceding Genus. Central and hind tibiae with long hairs. Hind tibiae of d typically 
very short, first tarsal joint very long, stout, with hairs outwardly. Forewings with acute apex, neuration 
normal with accessory cell. On hindwings vein 3 + 4 rarely stalked, at anal angle no pocket with brush of 
hairs. Type: varipes Wkr. from India. A great number of forms are found in the indo-australian territory and 
these vary considerably in marking. 
1 . Forewings shallowly impressed at outer margin below apex. More 
boldly excised under vein 4. 
angulata. C. angulata (= subtilis Wkr.) (41 c). Forewings pale red-brown with lilac sheen. Inner line brown, 
very oblique, sometimes double, from + of costa to beyond centre of inner margin. A black dot in cell and at 
end thereof. Outer line double, blackish, inclined outwardly. Hindwings transparent white, somewhat rose 
subtilella. at apex in d, more extensively so in + There are a few subforms. — subtilella Strd. The dark shade before 
subtilodes. postmedian line is much heavier. — subtilodes Strd. Forewings paler, hindwings completely without rose on 
subtilana. upperside. — subtilana Strd. is dark brown above inner margin, lines very diffuse. — suffusa Strd. Forewings 
snffusa. c tL 0co late-brown. 3U — 42 mm. The first 3 segments of larva are very distended and green, the others are 
pale red-brown with white, reddish and brown lateral lines. On last segment there is a dorsal hump. India, 
Ceylon, Andaman Is. Sunda Is. 
Intermedia. C. intermedia Swh. Forewings pale reddish rose. Inner line as in angulata, but somewhat indented 
below costa. Outer line also like angulata , but simple with a thin parallel line proximally. Hindwings pure 
white. The $ is more heavily roseate, colouration very uniform. Transverse lines indistinct. 38 mm. South 
India, Ceylon. 
innocens. C. innocens Swh. Forewings brilliant rosy red with 2 indistinct lines. A faintly curved dark line from 
before centre of costa to the anal angle. Submarginal line white, vertical above the anal angle. Hindwings 
white, narrowly rosy red at margin. One $. 38 mm. South India. 
chlorostig- C. chlorostigma Hmps. (41 c). Forewings reddish brown with lilac sheen. Inner line red-brown, in- 
ma - distinct, slightly excurved in centre. Claviform stigma as a luscious green (= lilac-brown) spot. Orbicular 
and reniform stigmata similarly, all 3 with white circumscriptions. Reniform stigma constricted in centre. Outer 
line red-brown, somewhat indented behind the cell, curved inwards more boldly under vein 3. A triangular 
borneonis. dark spot on costa before apex. Hindwings fiery red, paler at base. — - borneonis Strd. has a larger claviform 
tumidistig- stigma, that is elliptical and extends below vein 1. - tuniidistigma Warr. denotes a borneonis with larger dark 
ma. g reen stigmata, orbicular and claviform are occasionally confluent. Assam. — 26—32 mm. India, Ceylon. 
Borneo. — The cocoon is pale brown with thorn-like excrescences. 
annae. C. annae Swh. Forewings pale brown and lilac-grey, with numerous black striations, especially at base 
and at costa to end of cell. A dark shaded band from 2 3 of costa obliquely inwards and vertically from vein 2 . 
Anteriorly there are 2 fainter parallel bands. A silvery white band of scales from vein 5 to anal angle, in 
place of a submarginal line. Hindwings pale grey-brown at base, otherwise lilac-rose. In $ forewings are 
vermilion-red. Outer line dark, diffuse, excurved below costa and in centre, incurved behind the cell and in 
ochreobrun- submedian fold; there is the same shaded band as in d- — ochreobrunnea Strd. Forewings pale ochreous brown.

*) In the original description it says from % of costa to 1 / i of inner margin, which is certainly erroneous and should 
perhaps read from % of costa to 3 / 4 of inner margin.
