9. C. homochroa sp. nov. r^. — Antennae and front reddish fawn ; pata- 

 giae and upperside of thorax dark brown ; abdomen and underside of 

 thorax and legs reddish fawn. 



Upperside : the primaries and secondaries are reddish fawn, slightly 

 paler toward the outer margin. The primaries are crossed by obscure 

 subbasil and limbal transverse lines. The secondaries are crossed by a 

 more sharply defined transverse median line. At the end of the cells in 

 both wings there are narrow angulated hyaline spots beyond which to- 

 ward the outer margin in both wings there is a small brown spot. 



Underside : both wings grayish fawn, profusely marked with blackish 

 spots and striae ; both traversed by narrow blackish limbal lines. On the 

 underside the hyaline spots are defined externally by narrow blackish 

 lines. Expanse 43 mm. 



ID. C. Propinqna sp. nov. rf . — The wings in tWs species are broader 

 than in the^ two preceding species, and far less sharply excised on the 

 outer margins. Antennae testaceous ; collar, thorax and upperside of 

 abdomen, dark brown. Lowerside of thorax and abdomen obscure fer- 

 ruginous. 



Upperside : primaries dark brown, with the costa and apex marked 

 with ashen and traversed by a zig-zag, subbasal and narrow limbal line, 

 between which there is a darker clouding. The outer margin is preceded 

 by some obscure dark markings ; the hyaline spot is defined externally 

 by narrow light lines. The secondaries are darkest about the middle 

 where they are crossed by a narrow transverse median line and are orna- 

 mented with obscure submarginal cloudings. 



Underside : primaries cinereous, with dark olivaceous spots and striae 

 on the inner margin near the base, and heavily clouded with dark brown 

 near the outer angle. A narrow transverse limbal line extends from the 

 apex (where it is accentuated by two subtriangular brown spots) to the 

 inner margin three-fourths of the distance from the base. The secondaries 

 are ferruginous, clouded with olivaceous, and crossed by a straight trans- 

 verse limbal line, black, defined externally and internally by pale HIac. 

 Expanse 37 mm. 



II. C. (?) cinereo-marginala sp. nov. (^. — Antennae testaceous; front 

 rufous; upperside of thorax and abdomen dark brown, lowerside cinereous. 



Upperside : primaries and secondaries dark brown on the basal half 

 The outer half of the primaries is dark cinereous, the outer half of the 

 secondaries pale cinereous, the division between the pale outer area and 

 the dark inner area being obscurely marked on the primaries and sharply 

 defined on the secondaries. The primaries are falcate, and sharply pro- 

 duced at the extremity of the third median on the outer margin. The 

 secondaries have the outer margin evenly rounded, forming a somewhat 

 acute angle with the inner margin. 



Underside : both wings grayish ferruginous with a small white spot near 

 the margin beyond the end of ths cell, an obscure median transverse line 

 on the secondaries. Expanse 38 mm.
