Three similar species have the third band single.

1. C. rarhia.HW with the inner 2 bands narrower than the outermost band; FW apex with a cross line.

2. C. intermedia; HW inner two bands as wide or nearly so as the outermost band; FW apex with out a cross line; all bands relatively narrow.

3. C. rahrioides; HW inner two bands narrower than the outermost band; FW without a cross line.

3 was formerly a northern ssp of C. rahria. Surprisingly it is taken in Gopeng.
