Til is species seems to be stiU rare in Collections. I have generally found it represented by 

 males of C. Virgo, which closely resemble it. The present group is one of the illustrations occurring 

 throughout the genus of similarity in males of allied forms, with dissimilarity of females. 



C. Clprln was confounded by lliibncr, Cramer, and others willi the C. Lurra of Fabricius ; 

 iliibner, moreover, showed a want of care in naming his new and allied species C. Neoci/2)rw (sic). 

 I can scarcely think the alteration in the spelling intentional.
