The species is similar to C. bipartita. The wingspan is 35–38 mm for males and 45–50 mm for females. Larvae are known to feed on Trema orientalis.[2] In males, head, thorax and abdomen is reddish brown. Forewings with basal area red-brown with fine pale streaks. A black medial line bent inwards at vein 2. There are two postmedial lines with brown patches between them at costa and inner margin and with black dentate marks on them. Hindwings are pale fuscous and the margin is darker. A pale streak at anal angle and cilia is whitish towards the apex. In female, head, thorax and base of forewings ochreous-white. The markings of the forewing more distinct than that of male. Larva greenish white above and green below. There are pale green oblique lateral lines with a grey bordered yellow dorsal line with a red tubercle on 11th somite. Legs green.[3]

gollark: It might be an interesting project to use AI magic™ to generate fake room panomarae and faces and feed them to the software.

gollark: Some of the other things apparently detect face and eye movemenets which is, er, bad.
gollark: It uses the RFC 2119 "MUST" definition, which says "This word, or the terms "REQUIRED" or "SHALL", mean that the definition is an absolute requirement of the specification.", so attackers cannot, in fact, not do this.
