the silvery grey undulate line is inside shaded with black. Hindwing orange, at the costal margin, on the folds 
and fringe black. Mexico (Guerrero, Tabasco). 
C. flavofasciata Grt. (— versutus H.-Edw.) (50 k) is easily noticed by the oblique orange antemedian 
■ band on the dark brown forewing; the black transverse lines are bordered with silvery on the averted sides, the 
reniform macula is a small silvery luna; behind the silvery undulate line the apex is tinted copper red. Hindwing 
dark brown. Alabama, Texas, Colorado, New Mexico. 
C. luda Drc. (50 k)is on the forewing blackish-brown, slightly mixed with red-brown, in the antemedian 
area broad, light, reddish-ochreous with black median and postmedian transverse lines, the exterior one double, 
filled with silvery purple, with an elliptical reniform macula; the violettish silvery undulate line is on both 
sides shaded with blackish. Hindwing blackish-brown. From Arizona, Texas, Mexico, Peru, and Argentina. 
C. petulans sp. n. (50 k) is on the forewing almost exactly coloured and marked as luda, but it is smaller, 
the distal border of the light antemedian band forms a larger outward curve below the cell. Very easily discer¬ 
nible by orange hindwings which are similarly marked as in orcidia, but still more blackened. Peru (Cuzco). 
C. dieptica Dyar (50 k) is exactly marked as luda, but the colour is quite different, the basal area light 
silvery grey, with a violet tint, outward lightest, almost white; the rest of the wing is violettish-black, with 
deeper black markings, the silvery grey undulate line is very irregular, behind the cell very pointedly intro- 
angular and inside bordered with deep black, the margin behind it narrow red-brown. Hind wing light greyish- 
brown, at the margin darker. Mexico (Tehuacan). 
C. monada Dyar (50 k) resembles dreptica, but it is darker, the light basal area less contrasting, more 
copper brown, narrower, and bordered by a very straight, not curved line; the violettish-black distal area is 
scarcely marked, only a black subapical spot is more distinct. Hindwing black with a bronze gloss. Mexico 
(Jalapa). 
C. millidice Dyar (50 k). Fore wing at the base broad lead-coloured, the rest coppery blackish; the interior 
undulate transverse line is broad, violettish-grey, the exterior one not far away from it, similar; the maculae 
are lead-coloured small spots surrounded by black arcuate lines; the violettish-grey undulate line is inwards 
bordered by black spots. Hindwing brownish-black. Mexico (Tehuacan). 
C. euproptopa Dyar (50 k). The basal third of the forewing is light coppery violet, the median area 
blackish, bordered by curved black lines, with a copper gloss; the marginal area is less dark with a black sub- 
apical spot and a smaller one below it. Hindwing bronze black. Mexico (Guadalajara, Jalapa). 
C. ici'ia Dyar (50 k). Forewing behind the dark brown base with a violet silvery band distally bordering 
in a curved line on the dark brown median area which is below the cell parted by a light ray and ends above it 
at the costal margin in a triangle, outside bordered by a violettish silvery oblique band. Marginal area copper 
brown, strewn with lilac, with a black spot in the centre of the margin. Hindwing blackish. Panama. 
C. paidica Dyar (50 k). Forewing at the base dark brown, followed by a broad light lilac oblique band 
with a red-brown transverse line in it; median area brown, marginal area lighter with long black subapical 
streaks. Hindwing dark brownish-grey. Panama. 
C. periusia Dyar (50 k). Forewing in the basal third blackish, scantily intermixed with violettish 
silvery scales, behind it follows a broad dingy brownish ochreous band, outwards bordered by a curved deep 
brown band; the marginal half is blackish, dusted with purple, instead of the undulate line somewhat lighter 
irrorated, with a light apical spot. Hindwing blackish-brown. Argentina. 
C. goyanensis limps. (50 k). Forewing yellowish red-brown, at the base blackish-brown, dusted with 
grey, before the brown posterior transverse line dusted with red-brown; undulate line black, outside faded and 
with silvery scales. Hindwing reddish blackish-brown. Argentina. 
C. tortricopsis Dyar (50 k). Basal half of forewing blackish, in the middle outside angular, behind it 
light grey, with a faint flesh-coloured tint, at the apex shaded with dark, with 4 silvery white small costal- 
marginal streaks, distal margin black. Hindwing brownish-grey. One of the smallest species from Panama. 
C. balteata Sm. (50 k). The grey forewing is strewn with brown, with a broad oblique brownisli- 
ochreous antemedian oblique band, outside bordered by the whitish-edged median line; in and below the cell- 
end dusted with red-brown, with a curved black discal streak; the grey undulate line is inside bordered with 
red-brown, with short black subapical streaks behind it. Hindwing reddish-brown. Arizona. 
C. gilda Drc. resembles a little balteata . but the antemedian oblique band is more silvery grey with a 
slight red-brown tint, the posterior transverse line is distinctly bordered with silvery grey; before the grey
