Text Appearing Before Image:
ansparent spot surrounded with black, and that again by alarger circle of the same hue. Then comes a rather wide circleof yellow, followed by another of pink, both being bounded byblack lines. The outer edge of the wings is dark brown. I presume that my readers are acquainted with that prettylittle bird the common Creeper. One of its scientific names isCerthia, and the accompanying insect has been named after itin consequence of the similarity of colouring. In the Moth as well as the bird, brown is the leading colour,but it is so varied and broken up with grey, black, and yellow,that it is impossible to state what is really the ground colour.The outer edge of the wing is yellowish, and the two lightpatches near the tip are yellow. The series of angular marks arewhite, and look just as if they had been painted with Chinesewhite. The base of the upper wings is very dark brown. Theinsect is a native of Northern India.
