purple brown with indistinct double undulate transverse lines, the distal part of the posterior line only com¬ 
posed of dots on the veins; ring-macula light brown, encircled with black, instead of the reniform macula there 
is at the cell-end a large, oblique, light grey spot, in front and behind shaded with dark; before the light undulate 
line there are 3 black wedge-shaped spots behind the cell, above it a light triangular apical spot. Hindwing 
monotonously brown. The $ is darker. Expanse of wings: 33 to 35 mm. Brazil: Castro (Parana). 
Sect. II. Antennae serrate-dentate with ciliary tufts. 
Ch. cameago Gn. (= fulva Blch.) (19 b). Forewing deep red-brown, dusted with purple grey and 
strewn with brown and black, on the veins striped black, with darker undidate transverse lines, the posterior 
line double, and with an oblique median line; the ring-macula is a black dot, the reniform macula is blackish 
encircled with grey, with dark dusting above it to the costal margin. Undadate line brown, at the costal 
margin expanded like a spot. Hindwing white, veins and margin dusted with purple brown, fringes red or 
ochreous-yellowish. Chile. 
Sect. III. Antennae plainly ciliated. 
Ch. chionosema limps. (19 b) has red-brown forewings, in the basal half fiery red and oc-hreous yellow, 
postmedianly fiery red, at the proximal margin and in the marginal area purple, the transverse lines in front 
double, behind single, dentate with a yellow spot at the costal margin; coniform macula red, at the end sur¬ 
rounded with brown, the upper ones fiery red mixed with yellow and surrounded with brown,, the reniform 
macula distally and below bordered by purely white dots and streaks; undulate line brown, distally scaled 
yellow. Hindwing ochreous-yellow, veins and marginal half dusted with brown, the margin itself tinted purple 
with ochreous-yellow fringes. Expanse of wings: 44 mm. Peru. 
Ch. ociosa Dogn. (19 b). Forewing yellowish-grey, faintly tinted reddish, strewn with black, with 
double transverse lines, behind the distal line a row of dots on the veins; all the 3 maculae small, surrounded 
with black, behind the reniform macula 3 small white spots encircled with black; the light grey undulate line 
is on both sides bordered by black dots, the marginal area behind it is darker. Hindwing light, with darker 
veins and marginal area. Ecuador (Loja). 
Ch. poliosigma Jones has olive-brown forewings dusted with red-brown, with rather indistinct, single 
dark transverse lines; instead of the ring-macula there are 2 small grey dots, the reniform macula is light grey, 
distally finely bordered with black and all round shaded with dark; behind the distal transverse line there is 
a double row of black dots on the veins; behind the light brown undulate line a dark nebulous stripe, above 
it a triangular, dark costal spot. Hindwing brown with reddish fringes. Expanse of wings: 42 mm. Brazil: 
Castro (Parana). 
Ch. subsocia Wkr. (19 b). Forewing light greyish-brown, strewn darker, with indistinct double trans¬ 
verse lines, 2 brown dots before the anterior line, the posterior line being dentate with black dots on the veins 
behind it; the ring-macula and coniform macula are absent, the reniform macula is narrow with parallel lateral 
margins, above open, in a light ring and with a brown central streak, below with a black pupil; the light undulate 
line is on both sides bordered with brown, above the anal angle with a black spot. Hindwing brownish-grey 
with yellowish fringes. Brazil. 
Ch. phaeozona Jones is on the forewing light brown with 2 dark violettish-brown bands, the first 
between the subbasal and anterior transverse line, the second between the posterior transverse line and undulate 
line, also the median and its branches being violettish-brown as far as the undulate line; the ring-macula is 
lighter with a dark brown dot in the proximal upper angle, the undulate line also light with a dark two-pointed 
spot at the lower cell-end, which touches the median; at the base of the cell there is likewise a dark spot, between 
the maculae a faded median shade. Hindwing brown, at the apex darker, at the costal margin iridescent 
ochreous-yellowish. Expanse of wings: 43 mm. Brazil: Castro (Parana). 
Ch. albirena Gn. (19 c). Forewing purple reddish brown with dark transverse lines, a dark shaded 
before the anterior line; in, below and behind the cell-end a large dark spot with a triangular white reniform 
macula in it; from the lower cell-end a dark median line runs to the proximal margin; the undulate line is com¬ 
posed of a row of white dots with a black sagitta before it above the middle radial vein; fringes pinkish reddish. 
Hindwing ochreous brown, towards the base lighter with pink fringes. Brazil (Novo Friburgo). 
Ch. fusciplaga sp. n. (19 c) is similar to albirena, but smaller, with more pointed forewings and without 
any reniform macula in the large dark cellular spot, the undulate lines without black sagittae. Hindwing towards 
the base and at the proximal margin much lighter. On the under surface the forewing exhibits distally to the 
blackish basal part a large subanal area of deep claret-coloured modified scales which are absent in albirena 
where the whole surface of the wing is light red-brown. One $ from Brazil (Sta. Cruz). 
Ch. atnpla Wkr. (19 c). Forewing blackish-brown, dusted with a silvery grey, with rather indistinct 
transverse lines, the posterior line only composed of a double row of black dots on the veins; the round ring- 
macula is hardly visible with a deep red dot at the upper end, the reniform macula is an ochreous-yellow spot 
with dots above it and below it, and deep red scales at the edges; undulate line marked by red dots. Hindwing 
brownish-grey with yellowish-white fringes. Brazil.
