Coptotelia nigriplaga

The forewings are crimson, suffusedly spotted with yellow between the veins and with a rather dark lilac-fuscous band along the costa from the base to three-fifths, then abruptly bent down to the middle of the disc, and again angulated to the costa beyond the middle, its median section including a subcostal spot of ground colour, and an oval semitransparent white crimson-edged spot in the disc.

The costal edge is shortly white before the middle and at three-fourths and the dorsal area more or less spotted indistinctly with fuscous, sometimes with a streak from the disc to the dorsum at one-third.

There is an oval semitransparent white spot in the disc beyond the dark band, followed by three round similar spots placed transversely, the median one smallest, and a narrow oblique similar spot beneath the discal extremity of the band.

There is a broad rather dark lilac-fuscous terminal fascia extending to the costa, connected above by two cloudy oblique streaks with the costal band, below the middle with a broad projection occupied by a blotch of blackish suffusion.

The hindwings are whitish, faintly tinged with yellowish and towards the dorsum with rosy and there is a broad light brown terminal fascia not reaching the tornus.
