posteriorly diffusedly dusky in costal area. Submarginal line dentate. Hindwings reddish yellow. — fakfakensis 
Strd. Hindwings redder. — We are illustrating a $ from Amboina, that corresponds to commixta Warr. on 
forewings, if one assumed dark brown as the colouration instead of olive-green, hindwings are more like those 
of tarilca. The latter is known to occur in Gilolo and New Guinea. 
C. repandens Wkr. (= sundana Fldr.). Forewings chocolate reddish, heavily peppered with silvery 
scales, except at base, anterior to postmedian line and on margin. Inner line from y 3 of costa to centre of inner 
margin, dark, dentate. Postmedian line silvery white, edged narrowly distally, widely proximallv with red- 
brown. A submarginal line is indicated by dark scales. Hindwings red-brown. sundana Fldr. (41 e) from 
Amboina is much darker on both wings. 35—40 mm. Malacca, Sunda Is., Amboina. 
C. acutapex Strd. Somewhat resembles the palaearctic Pygaera sieversi Stgr. (Vol. 2, pi. 47 f). Fore¬ 
wings reddish brown, grey-violet at base and at outer margin. A pale yellow spot at base of inner margin. 
Antemedian line almost straight, brown, from 1 / 5 of costa to centre of inner margin. Postmedian line anteriorly 
entirely diffuse, excurved above and below the centre. Hindwings reddish, paler at base. $ 30 mm. Formosa. 
4. Fore wings uniformly curved at costa. 
Practically all the species have 2 approximately parallel transverse lines on forewings. The greatest number 
of species belong to this group. 
a) Hind tibiae of short with only one terminal spur outwards. The first segment of tarsi very long, 
distended, densely hairy on inner side. 
C. unipunctata B.-Bak. (41 e). Forewings red-brown. Median line obliquely outwards, bolder and more 
distinctly outwards over inner margin. A black dot at disco-cellular. Outer line slightly obliquely to anal 
angle, faintly curved anteriorly, impressed over inner margin. Hindwings orange-red. 38 mm. New Guinea, 
Queensland. fulvida E. Prout is larger, paler, inclined to pale reddish ochre. Lines still more indistinct than 
in type, but the black cell spot distinct. Hindwings also paler. 40—46 mm. Burn. 
C. calva Warr. Fore wings pale vermilion-red or ochreous red, the two lines delicate and faintly darker. 
The first one from 1 3 of costa, straight, oblkpie; the second from of costa, at first slightly excurved then 
vertically. A dark cell spot occasionally discernible. Hindwings pale vermilion-red, paler at base. Malacca. 
C. infundibulata Warr. Smaller and darker than calm. Forewings pale grey-brown with faint lilac 
sheen. Both lines yellowish olive-brown, a similar marginal shade at postmedian line, that is narrow in centre. 
Cell spot distinctly black, brown at edge. Hindwings pale ochreous yellow, darker at margin. One 9 from 
Malacca. 
C. purpurea Hmps. (41 e). Forewings dark chocolate-brown with silvery lilac gloss. Antemedian line 
fine, blackish, from t 3 of costa to centre of inner margin. A black dot at disco-cellular. Postmedian line in¬ 
distinct, oblique to vein 6, thence to inner margin near to anal angle. Outer margin narrowly paler. Hindwings 
fiery red, paler at base. 28—32 mm. India. 
C. biviata Hmps. (41 f). Forewings brilliant red in median area, base yellow at inner margin, dark 
lilac-grey posterior to outer line. The antemedian line from 1 of costa to beyond centre of inner margin, straight, 
dark. Black postmedian line from beyond centre of costa to anal angle, faintly excurved below costa. Hind¬ 
wings paler red, still paler at base. 32—36 mm. Malacca, Borneo. 
C. purpureolineata Hmps. (= biviata $ Hmps.). Obviously very similar to the preceding species. Fore- 
wings fiery red-brown, browner at base. Lines lilac-blackish, somewhat diffuse. The inner line very oblique, 
the outer one from beyond centre of costa to anal angle. Dot in cell black, outer margin brown. Hindwings 
pale red, whitish at base. 40 mm. One pair from Malacca. 
C. dione Swh. (41 f). Forewings pale lilac-brown, olive-brown at base. An olive-brown stripe from 
beyond centre of costa to the anal angle and another in apical area. Antemedian line dark, straight and 
oblique. Postmedian line indistinct, straight, more pronounced at inner margin. An undulate dark submarginal 
line is discernible. Hindwings vermilion-red. 34—36 mm. Assam. 
C. longicornis E. Prout. (41 f). Darker than dione. Forewings lilac-red, with silvery gloss in the paler 
patches. The lines are not so oblique and are more widely separated than in dione. Antemedian line straight, 
postmedian uniformly excurved with dark shade on either side, and this is widest at costa. Hindwings as in 
dione. Forewings also resemble those of nitida, but in that case the lines are more vertical. 40—42 mm. Sumatra. 
C. egens E. Prout,. (41 f). Forewings distinctly wider than in longicornis . Ground colour similar to 
that of longicornis, but browner, less variegated, without the silvery gloss. The usual black cell spot. Both trans¬ 
verse lines are very closely approximated, more vertical than in longicornis , so that the resemblance in the 
markings is not too great. The diffuse submarginal shade is interrupted and less irregular than in dione and 
longicornis. $ 44 —46 mm. Sumatra.
