the subcostal beyond the first branch, the lower the median beyond the second branch ; 
the costal side of the cell is shorter than the median side. 
The front legs of the male have the trochanter inserted before the middle of the 
coxa, the femur < coxa, somewhat dilated in the middle, the tibia >coxa, also dilated, 
the tarsus=# tibia, with a slight constriction near the end, showing the remains of a 
joint. The palpi have the terminal joint short=4 middle joint, which is swollen at the 
base and tapers towards the distal end, the basal joint is tumid = middle joint. The 
antenne have thirty-eight joints, whereof the terminal thirteen form a distinct club. 
The harpagones have two slender lobes at the end, setose at the extremities; a piece 
arches over the penis, bearing two small lobes on either side, also setose. The strap 
from the base of the penis is very strong, and proceeds outwards to the extremity of 
the harpagones, where it bends abruptly backwards and joins their base; at the bend 
is a patch of strong spines curving outwards. We find this latter structure repeated in 
Lasaia and Exoplisia, and in a modified form in Beotis. The bursa copulatrix of the 
female has two strong thorn-like processes with granular surfaces.

This species is closely allied to C. amazonica, with which we for some time con- 
founded it. On closer examination we find considerable points of difference. The 
inner margin of the secondaries is devoid of green scales, and the submarginal band is 
green, not golden, and less clearly defined. ‘The under side is altogether darker. 
From both Guatemala and Nicaragua we have but a single specimen; but in the 
State of Panama it appears to be far from uncommon. 
Found about flowering bushes in the second-growth woods and _ forest margins
