cellular is rusty brown. Outer white band somewhat undulate, vertical to % of inner margin. Submarginal 
line dark, undulate, about parallel to margin. Hindwings transparent white. 30 mm. One $ from the Fiji 
Islands. 
5. Costa of forewings regularly curved. Legs normally long. Hind 
tibiae of anteriorly with long hairs. The only species of this group has 
entirely different reticulate markings. 
C. viridipennis Drc. Forewings whitish with luscious green spots. A brown spot on inner margin 
near base. Antemedian line dark, dentate, commencing at costa in a spot, then vertically to submedian fold 
and thence'very obliquely. A black streak at disco-cellular. Postmedian line dark brown with white outer 
edge, angulated inwards below costa and then excurved between veins 4 and 2 and 1. Submarginal line 
spotted, dark brown, almost straight. Hindwings red, brown at inner margin. 30 mm. One from Borneo. 
6. Hind tibiae of normal. The first few species more or less green. 
C. viridifascia Swh. (42 d). Forewings lilac-brownish. A pale green spot on costa at base. An oblique 
green band, paler in centre, from middle of costa to anal angle having a black edge on both sides. Posteriorly 
a green spot on costa and a greenish white row of spots from vein 6—2. Hindwings pale lilac-rose, grey- 
brown at margin. 28 mm. One $ from Malacca. 
C. effusa Swh. (42 d). Forewings yellowish flesh coloured, somewhat rose at inner margin, yellow-green 
on costa at base. A dark spot at % of costa, whence an oblique green line proceeds to vein 2 and on it out¬ 
wards to submarginal line. A black dot at disco-cellular. Outer dark line with short excurvation behind cell, 
then in undulations outwards to lower angle of cell. Posteriorly a green patch on costa. An undulate row 
of dark submarginal spots. Hindwings reddish brown. 26 mm. One $ from Borneo. 
C. viridipicta Hmps. (42 d). Forewings grey-brown with 2 green spots at base. A green antemedian 
line, somewhat oblique and undulate, posteriorly inner margin is greenish. Black disco-cellular. Postmedian 
line black, double, with wide green edge on both sides. Somewhat greenish before apex, to which a submar¬ 
ginal black row of dots is attached. Hindwings brownish white. 30—32 mm. One pair from Assam. 
C. immemor Warr. Smaller and greyer than viridipicta (42 d) but with very similar marking that 
however is scarcely green. A longish black spot extends from disco-cellular to outer line. Dark grey at apex. 
Hindwings grey. Assam. 
C. mixticolor Warr. Forewings of § ochreous whitish with olive-brown scales, somewhat green at 
base. Inner line from a green spot on costa, oblique, incised on submedian fold, red-brown below centre. 
Postmedian line pale with a green line anteriorly; red scales from costa and below the cell and with dark green 
outer edge. At disco-cellular red, beyond brownish green. Submarginal line pale, inwardly with green dent¬ 
ations. Hindwings yellowish, brick-red at margin. In the antemedian line is more distinct. Disco-cellular 
however is less red, reniform stigma not green. 35 mm. Malacca, Sumatra. 
C. seticornis Wkr. ( = lilacina Hmps.) (31 i). Forewings grey-brown. Inner line red-brown, some¬ 
what undulate, excurved, obsolete above inner margin. A faint dark streak at disco-cellular. Outer line 
red-brown, undulate, oblique to vein 3, incurved on submedian fold to anal angle. Submarginal line indic¬ 
ated by a few black lunules. Hindwings dark brown. - purpureoscripta Wkr. differs by having a black 
spot in centre of cell and a round brown spot posterior to disco-cellular nervure. 26—30 mm. India, Borneo. 
C. chalybea Warr. Forewings pale lilac-grey, the fasciae and nebulae yellowish green. Antemedian 
incised below centre, excurved above and below, posteriorly a rusty brown spot on inner margin. A rusty 
brown streak at disco-cellular. Outer line oblique, undulate incised behind the cell and on submedian fold, 
posteriorly an indistinct brown shade. Submarginal line consists of minute dark spots. Hindwings lilac-blackish, 
glossy. One from Borneo. 
C. mesocausta Hmps. (42 d). Forewings grey, median area red-brown. Inner line oblique, excurved 
in cell, below slightly incurved. An oblique black streak with grey outer edge at disco-cellular. The undulate 
postmedian line is somewhat excurved in centre, terminating near anal angle. An undulate submarginal line 
of brown dots. Hindwings brownish. 28 mm. One $ from Borneo. 
C. leucozona E. Prout. Forewings pale red-brown with white median band and slender white undul¬ 
ate transverse lines, that are almost vertical. Inner line parallel to median band. A black streak in the latter 
and at disco-cellular. Postmedian line with dark inner edge, forming corresponding undulations to the somewhat 
violet submarginai line, the latter terminating at anal angle. Hindwings grey. 26 mm. One $ from Borneo. 
C. vexilla Swh. (42 e). The median band is much narrower than in leucozona and is grey white. Fore¬ 
wings pale reddish brown, somewhat grey at base. Inner line slender, dark, undulate, vertical with a small 
narrow band closely posterior. Then follows the black streak at disco-cellular nervure. The dark outer and 
parallel submarginal line are closely approximated and only slightly undulate. Black radial striations before
