Group VII 
ADDITIONAL CHARACTERISTICS: 
(4) Larval face pattern due to dark pits against a paler face; 
(5) Pupal head horns shaped like tiny asymmetrical leaves 
(also occurs in GROUP II); 
foodplants: Calycophyllum, Chomelia, Malanea, Pentagonia, 
Psychotria, Uncaria, Warscewiczia (all Rubiaceae). 
cocala, Panama (Aiello) 
Early fifth instars are crypticaly patterned with golden brown 
and black; later the pattern remains but the colors become moss- 
green, black, and cream, and a pinkish grey and black area 
appears on dorsal A3-6, plus a broad, oblique, lateral pinkish or 
yellowish stripe across A4 and 5 together. Some individuals have 
a subspiracular lime-green mark on each of A7 & 8. 
The pupa is dark green. 
cocala, Brasil (Moss, 1933) 
The curved, thick scoli of A2 show clearly in Moss’s 
illustration, but his larvae had more than one lateral oblique 
stripe. The pupae appear nearly identical. 
His record of Emmotum (Icacinaceae) as a foodplant, in 
addition to Malanea (Rubiaceae) is odd, and is the only reported 
deviation, by cocala, from Rubiaceae. 
leucophthalma leucophthalma, Panama (Aiello & Small) 
The larva of leucophthalma is apparently indistinguishable 
from that of cocala (G. Small, personal communication) and the 
two species must be closely related. 
The pupa also is very similar to cocala, but differs in being 
brown or copper-color, and in having the abdominal projection 
rather square, the thoracic projection more pointed, and the head 
horns farther appart at their bases. 
leucophthalma leucophthalma (as /. tegeata ), Costa Rica (Young, 
1974) 
The observations by Young are consistent with those of 
Gordon Small and myself.
