Through the middle of the dark brown hindwiiig extends an indistinct darker line. Beneath both wings are 

 uni-coloured dark brown. Expanse of wings; 28 mm. Venezuela (Suapure). 

 <jabiiiii.s. C. gabinus Plotz (185 i) is above uni-coloured blackish-brown, beneath the same, on the hindwing 



with 3 or 4 white, roundish postdiscal spots situate close together, only separated by the veins, the second 

 from above being the largest and projecting towards the base; occasionally there is another dot in the disc. 

 Brazil (Santos, Rio, Sa. Catharina). 

 lierminieri. C. hermitiieri Latr. (186 a) is above blackish-brown, beneath a little lighter brown, on the hindwing 



more reddish, with 2 grey, small, postdiscal diffuse spots behind the lower cell-end; veins somewhat darker. 

 Venezuela, reported from Carolina. 

 ni,jrati.<!. C. iligrans Schs. Wings blackish-browTi, beneath duller, Forewing beneath with 2 small greyish-white 



spots between and above the median veins, anal angle lighter brownish-grey; hindwing with an orange dot 

 at the cell-end and 2 similar ones behind and above the cell. Costa Rica. 



laurci'his. C. laurcolus Schs. Above blackish-brown, above on the forewing in the middle the veins darkened, 



hindwing in the basal half darker. Beneath lighter brown, only in the basal third of the forewing and a sub- 

 apical triangular spot dark, before the latter with 3 grey dots, anal angle lighter. On the hindwing the base, 

 a postdiscal band and large marginal spots are darker brown. Costa Rica. 



la/crninis. C. latcranus Schs. The blacki.sh-brown forewing shows transparent, white spots: a large one at the 



cell-end, a large one below it between the median veins, and a smaller one above it more distally, a small one 

 below it and 3 small subapical ones. Beneath the forewing is at the apex, costal and distal margins and the 

 hindwing olive-brown, the latter with a white cell-spot and another one below the lower cell-angle. Looks 

 above lilie gabina (185 i). Costa Rica. 

 pindar. C. pindar Schs. Smaller than the preceding, the spots brownish, without the cell-spot of the forewing; 



hindwing with a yellow hyaline dot below the lower cell-angle. Beneath lighter brown, costal margin and cell 

 of forewing more yellowish-brown, the spots as above, anal angle lighter. Hindwing brown, transverse vem 

 and 5 jjostdiscal spots darker brown, that below the lower cell-angle pupilled with the hyaline dot. Costa Rica. 



vlroria. C. cteocla Plotz (= ulrica Plotzl) (186b). Above blackish-brown, with a small, white cellular and 



submedian dot, larger postdiscal spots and 2 subapical dots. Beneath lighter violettish-brown, with blackish 

 veins, in the anal part of the forewing lighter, with a red-brown mner-marginal part of the hindwing. From 

 Rio de Janeiro. 

 or(jiif<. C. argus Mschlr. (= yva Plotz) (186 a) resembles the preceding above, biit the subapical spots of 



the forewing are absent. Beneath grey, hindwing with a black cell-spot and 4 behind it in an irregular row, 

 all of them ringed lighter. Panama to Colombia and Argentina. 



riiiiioha. C. chinoba Weeks is above uni-colouied dark brown, towards the margin somewhat lighter with darker, 



small, indistinct spots in the internerval spaces near the distal margin, on the hindwing a little more distinct. 

 Beneath brownish-drab, on the hindwing striated somewhat darker; an indistinct, darker transverse band 

 extends from the apex to the middle of the proximal margin, another one along the distal margin; the black 

 marginal spots are much more distinct than above; inner-marginal area light grey. Expanse of wings: 27 mm. 

 Venezuela (Suapure). 

 prrroniii.^. C. percosius G. <fe S. (186 a) looks above like argus, but the forewing is without the cell-spot, but there 



are 3 small, subapical spots. Hindwing often with 2 small light postcellular spots. Beneath on the hindwing 

 at the cell-end a yellow dot and 2 near the distal margin. Forewing at the anal angle lighter, yellowish-grey. 

 Mexico, Guatemala and Panama. 



quadniiii. C. quadrum Mab. is above smoky black, forewing with a small subapical dot and 2 white postdiscal 



spots. Beneath lighter, the spots light yellow, the proxiinal margin of the forewing whitish, in the submedian 

 space more ashy-grey. Hindwing black with a large, quadi-angular white spot between the iipper radial vein, 

 and the inner-marginal fold, touching the distal margin. Palpi red, laterally black. Expanse of wings: 34 mm 

 Rio San Juan (Colombia). 

 paciiUa. C. paculla 3Iab. is somewhat smaller, above the subapical dot another one being hardly visible; the 



postdiscal spots are small, quadrangular. Hindwing here also above with a white marginal band-spot from 

 the middle radial vein to the proximal margin; fringes above it spotted white. Beneath similar, the inner- 

 marginal area whitish. Expanse of wings: 32 mm. Villa Bella (Brazil). 

 phijscdla. C. physcella Hem. (186 a). Above blackish-brown with a greenish reflection, 4 postdiscal white spots 



in an oblique row and 3 subapical dots; on the hindwing with white fringes there are 3 subapical white dots. 

 Beneath the hindwing exhibits a broad, white distal-marginal part with a series of brownish, small dust-spots 

 in the middle, parallel to the distal margin. Brazil. 

 ehganiiiUi. C. elegatltula H.-Schdff. (186 b) entirely resembles above the following quadrangula, but it has lighter 



yellowish fringes. On the under sm-face the basal half of the costal margin and the apex of the forewing are 

 light violet like the hindwing with a rather broad, brown, undulate marginal line. The hindwing shows right
