cliscal spot; the white-dotted undulate line is on the lower radial branch angled as far as the margin. Hindwing 
coppery brown with white fringes. Venezuela. 
Ch. glaucescens Jones (35 g) has greenish-ochreous forewings mixed with a bluish grey; the anterior 
transverse line is cpiite extinct, the posterior line is indicated by a double row of small black lunulae which 
are distally marked with white; the white undulate line proceeds from a white apical spot. Hindwing yellowish 
brown. Brazil. 
Ch. elegans Schs. (35 g) has light green forewings with broad white transverse lines, the posterior 
line being twice bent and proximally black-scaled, below the cell connected by a black stripe; the ring-macula 
is black, surrounded with yellowish-reddish, the reniform macula is a white spot, black-centred; the yellowish- 
reddish undulate line proceeds from a white apical spot, in the grey marginal area there are thick black inter- 
nerval dots. Hindwing brownish-grey, towards the base whitish with a dark central spot. Costa Rica. 
Ch. chlorophila Drc. (35 h). Forewing light yellowish-green with white, black-dotted transverse 
lines; between the small whitish maculae there is a black spot being connected by 2 streaks with the costal 
margin; before and behind the white dentate undulate line there are on the folds blackish-brown spots. Hindwing 
greyish-brown. Peru. 
Ch. haba Dgn. is very similar to chlorophila , but the forewing is silvery white, with a faint green 
tint, in the cell-encl reddish, with indistinct double transverse lines beginning with large black costal-marginal 
spots; before the reniform macula which is indicated by a black discal streak there is a black costal-marginal 
spot; before the white undulate line which is marked with black there is a band of red-brown irroration. 
Hindwing brown with a dark discal spot and postmeclian line and white subterminal spots. Ecuador. 
Ch. griseorufa limps. (35 h) is on the whitish forewing irrorated with greyish-green and strewn 
with a darker colour, with faded, white-edged transverse lines, behind the distal line irrorated with bluish-grey 
in the lower half ; the ring-macula is a pinkish-reddish spot, the reniform macula a narrow dark streak bordered 
with white; the marginal area excepting the apex is irrorated with red-brown, in it extends the white undulate 
line. Hindwing reddish-brown. The $ is whiter, the reniform macula is filled up with black. From Brazil 
and Trinidad. 
Ch. mniochroa Hmps. (35 h). Forewing moss-green, mixed with white and red-brown, with black 
transverse lines bordered with white, and small blackish maculae with brown irroration between them; the 
white undulate line is on both sides bordered with brown, behind it on the discal fold with a dark brown spot. 
Hindwing brownish-grey. Trinidad. 
Ch. pyrrha Schs. (35 g) has light green forewings, the transverse lines are composed of brown small 
internerval spots proceeding from larger costal-marginal spots; the ring-macula is a small black dot, the reniform 
macula is finely bordered with white; the lowest spot of the distal transverse line is very large and distally 
bordered with white; the undulate line is also composed of small dark spots. Hindwing dark brown. Costa 
Rica. 
Ch. cyanochlora Schs. (35 g). Forewing bluish-green with fine black transverse lines, the anterior 
one bipartite towards the hind-margin; the large ring-shaped maculae are connected and between them a 
thick black median shadow extends; the fine white undulate line is proximally bordered with black. Hindwing 
brownish-grey, at the apex and narrowly at the distal margin bluish-green. Costa Rica. 
Ch. chlorostignia Harv. (= viridimusca Sm.) (35 i) is purple grey on the forewing, strewn and 
irrorated with black, in the proximal half of the median area, and in the marginal area tinted sap-green, with 
double transverse lines filled up with whitish, the green maculae surrounded with black; the undulate line is 
proximally bordered fadedly darker. Hindwing dark greyish-brown. Illinois, Texas. 
Ch. commixta Schs. (35 h) has violettish-grey forewings, at the base of the cell, submedianly, behind 
the lower cell-end, and in the marginal area irrorated with green; the ring-macula is yellowish-red, the reniform 
macula white, both centred somewhat green; the black transverse lines are bordered with white, the posterior 
line is strongly crenulated. Hindwing purple brownish. French Guiana. 
Ch. chloe Schs. Forewing brown, in some places mixed with lilac, in the basal area subcostally, at 
the hind-margin and distal margin green, with fine, black transverse lines which are in some places bordered 
with white; ring-macula black, behind it a green spot, the reniform macula long and narrow, dark green, in a 
light ring; at the apex there is a large greenish white apical spot, the veins of the marginal area being black. 
Hindwing dark purple brown. Guiana. 
Ch. lophophora Zerny (35 h) has light brown forewings mixed with a darker colour, towards the 
margin suffused with reddish, with a white, below yellowish basal ray, the double transverse lines filled up 
with lilac-whitish, the maculae surrounded with lilac-whitish; below the cell there is a violettish-grey shadow 
as far as the postmedian line, and in the centre of the distal margin and before it there are dark brown spots. 
Undulate line yellowish-white. Hindwing greyish-brown. From Bolivia (Rio Songo).
