outside not quite to the median line and is nari'ower at the costal margin. Between veins 2 and ~> hehitid the 
comma-spot, there are sometimes fine liglit traces of the exterior line, and the sid^marginal row' is slightly 
more undnlate than in latona (22 a). The median line of the hindwing is not different, the exterioi’ line lu’oaci, 
black, uniformly bent. 8 id)niarginal spots as on forewing. The $ shows the exterior l)and similar to that of 
magns-(^, but the submarginal line corresponding to that of duplex (J. The exterior dark band on the hind¬ 
wing is narrower, edged more or less with white outside, and discernible by its bend. The submarginal spots 
are more intensely edged with white inside. 05 85 mm. Madagascar. 
C. simplex Grnbg. (22 c) is recognizalde by the lack of a submarginal line or row of spots. Body and sim/ilr.r. 
wings very dark, only the base of the forewing lighter as far as the median line. Interior line and the lower 
part of the median line similar to magus. The comma-like mark olive brown, tricuspid on the head, behind 
it and below it more broadly scaled blue than usual, then follows the black l)ow' of the median line. Extending 
from vein 5 to the inner margin a faded brown straight band in the prolongation of which there is a similarly 
coloured spot at the costal margin. Deep dark stripes l)ehind it, extending inward as far as the band and as 
far as into the bend of the comma-like mark, outward almost to the distal margin, ending like a lobe. The 
very dark hindwing shows traces of a light interior line in the anterior part. Median line almost straight, 
narrower than on the forewing. 64 mm. 8 esse Is. 
C. fluctuosa Drury (= rudilinea Wkr.) (22 c). Body and wings coloured as hitherto, darker in the d', jindmsa. 
lighter in the Interior line black, notched, almost vertical. The reverse comma-like mark is dark tricuspid 
at the head, broadly olive brown behind it. The black median line slightly concave behind the comma, inward 
at vein 2 , and touching the comma with a spot, then parallel with the interior line to the inner margin; broadly 
dark behind it. Exterior line yellow,. interru])ted by the edge of the comma-mark. Lighter behind it as far as 
the dark snbmarginal line which is finely yellow inside. The latter line is strongly notched, as in magus, darker 
behind it. The dark hindwing shows a light and narrow exterior line, all the rest as in magus. The $ is lighter. 
limacina Guer., according to 8 AALMrLLER, is identical with duplex; in my o]union it is a somewhat dark jlne- 
tuosa. 62—80 mm. East Africa, Aladagascar, Comoro, Alauritius. 
C. griseata nom. ncv. {= simplex Hmps.) (22 c). Body and forewing brown, dusted grey behind the r/ri.<ieafa. 
exterior line. Interior line notched, vertical. The head of the comma-mark is tricuspid, with blue scales, the 
tail yellow inside, edged with blue outside. Olive brown outside around the head, narrower olive brouni to¬ 
wards the costal margin. No exterior line, but only a dark shadow which is mostly somewhat inwardly bent at 
the costal margin. 8 ubmarginal line as in fluctuosa, but indistinct, dusted grey or brown before it. Interior 
line of hindwing slightly excurved in the middle. Exterior line fine, yellowish, straight. Behind it as on the 
forewing. 45—60 tnm. Niger District. Uganda, Togo, Adamaua, 8 enegal. 
C. amblyops Mab. (22 d). Body and wings as far as the extei'ior line very dark brown. Interior line cnuhh/op.-:. 
almost vertical, notched, only discernible on lighter specimens. The comma-mark tricuspid, blackish, white 
scales in the tail. Aledian line black, encircling the comma in small Avaves, thus quite different from all the 
preceding species; rusty brown between it and the comma, then the median line takes the iisiial course. Ex¬ 
terior line fine whitish, vertical upon -3 inner margin. Behind it some greyish white dusting as far as the very 
undulate submarginal line. Hindwing with a feeble, bent, undidate median line. Exterior line fine, almost 
straight. Submarginal line fine uliite. — rhodesiana Strd. is a name for lighter grey specimens. 80—90 mm. rhode-Piana. 
West Afiica, LTganda, Rhodesia. 
C. disturbans Wkr. (= conturbans I17rr., raboudon Luc., concors Mab.) (22 e). Dark red-brown. didurhau.-^. 
interior line of forewing blackish, thick, somewhat inward below the cell. The comma-mark somewhat dis¬ 
figured, head more triangidar, the tail thicker at tlie end. edged with yellow, rusty brown outside the head. 
Median line fine, black, outward as far as vein 5, iimUilate behind the comma, then oblique to vein 1 . Exterior 
line slightly undulated, behind it yellow as far as the sid^marginal line which extends far outward below 
veins 6 , 4 and 1 . Hindwing with an indistinc.t interior line. Median line straight, yellow behind it as far as 
half-way to the fine yellow sul)marginal line which is notched as in the forewing. U; on the forewing the space 
between the interior line and the median line is uniformly dark. Exterior line straighter, lighter violettish 
brown behind it as far as the margin, the submarginal line only marked by s]jots. Hindwing with a darker 
yellow band. - - consiliatrix Saalm. shows a distinct dark sidjinarginal line, the space close behind it is also ron.^Uintri.r. 
somewhat dark. 75—95 mm. Aladagascar. 
C. joa Bsd. (22 d, e). $; body and wings lighter reddish brown. Interior line of forewing undulate, joa. 
somewhat oblique, outward below the cell. The head of the comma-mark is divided by a light border, the 
narrow tail is edged with black. Aledian line close behind it, outward as far as vein 5, then bent and obliquely 
inward, fused above the inner margin with the interior line and forming a triangular dark spot. The space 
between the two lines somewhat rusty brown. Exterior line broad, straight, yellow. Snbmarginal line quite 
indistinct, white, somewhat dentate, with black dots. Hindwing with a very indistinct median line. Exterior 
and sid^marginal lines corres]mnding to those on the forewing. — In postreducta Strd. $ the yellow' line is nar- jxi.dmlucid.
