Diagnosis.
Wingspan ♂
18–25 mm
, ♀
22–35 mm
. This species is similar to
C. angkorensis
sp. n.
, but can be distinguished from it by the following characters: size larger (♂
25 mm
, ♀ 35), ground color of forewing pure white, and hindwing pure white, with pale brown antemedial and subterminal lines. In
C. angkorensis
sp. n.
, smaller size (♂
22 mm
, ♀
28 mm
), ground color of forewing sordid white, and hindwing fuscous whole of upperside.
The two species differs in characters of male genitalia: in
C. effracta
, uncus arrowhead-shaped, 0.5 times shorter than tegumen, apex of valvae rounded, with short, roundly angular process in below apex and without angular process on the harpe, distal end of aedeagus sclerotized, without apical spine and vesica with one group of short spines and one group of stout spines, which almost same length with previously mentioned short spines and with weakly scobinated area; in
C. angkorensis
sp. n.
, uncus slender, 1.5 times longer than tegumen, apex of valvae triangular, with apical gap and one angular, sclerotized process on the harpe towards the apex, distal end of aedeagus sclerotized, with two apical spines and vesica with one group of short spines and one group of long spines, which are more than 8 times longer than previously mentioned short spines and lacking scobinated area.
It is also differs in characters of female genitalia: in
C. effracta
, ductus bursae not sclerotized, corpus bursae with a more elongate signum (2 times longer than
C. angkorensis
) in posterior half of bursae not covered with weak spines; in
C. angkorensis
sp. n.
, ductus bursae strongly sclerotized, corpus bursae with a large, coffee-bean shaped signum in posterior half of bursae covered with weak spines.
