fiigax. C. fugax Dyar. Forewings fairly dark, dusted with impure grey and darker veins. Fasciae very fine, 
black, antemedian curved, the faint dentate median line is only visible below the cell, the postmedian is most 
indistinct. The stigma is round with reddish central dot, the small subterminal spots are diffuse. Hindwings 
pure white. Wing expanse: 26 mm. Panama (Cabima, Porto Bello) in May. 
niima. C. illegitima Dyar. resembles fugax , but is still darker and duskier grey. Hindwings opalescent and 
transparent, suffused with smoky blackish and dark veins. Wing expanse: 25 mm. Panama (Cabima). 
ntrom. C. murora Dyar. Forewings dark grey, marginal area widely paler with small sagittate subterminal 
spots. Basal area somewhat darker, outlined by the curved antemedian line, the other lines obsolete, discal 
veins shaded: 'Stigmata paler with darker cores. Hindwings white with grey marginal band and ends to the 
veins, more widely so in the $ than in the <$. Wing expanse: 26 mm. Panama (Canal Zone). 
griselda. C. griselda Dyar. Forewings faint dark grey with reddish tone. Fasciae formed as in abseuzalis, but 
merely grey and only faintly discernible in the ground. The small sub terminal spots are sagittate and somewhat 
confluent, forming a black and distinct subterminal line. Hindwings brownish black with darker veins. Wing 
expanse: 24—26 mm. Mexico (Orizaba); Panama (La Chorrera); Venezuela (Aroa). 
C. mythias Schs. also closely resembles abseuzalis. Forewings silvery white with delicate black mark¬ 
ings. The antemedian line double below the cell. A black costal streak distally of the postmedian. The black 
subterminal spots are merely streaks, the spot below vein 2 being larger. Hindwings transparent whitish with 
black-brown marginal band and ends to veins. Wing expanse: 21 mm. Guatemala (Cayuga). 
C. arcuata Schs. (56 e). Body grey-brown, abdomen turning to rusty red posteriorly. Forewings pale 
brown with faint olive hue and vestiges of an undulate antemedian line. The other lines indistinctly darker. 
A blackish streak at end of cell. A row of faintly darker small spots subterminally. Hindwings grey with black- 
brown powdering. The $ is slightly paler in colouration, the black subterminal spot on the submedian fold is 
more prominent. Costa Rica. 
mdaphaca. C. metaphaea Hmps. (56 e). In the following species the subterminal row of dots is absent. Forewings 
white, suffused with coppery brownish and mottled. Both transverse lines indistinctly double, the inner lines 
being the heavier. The round stigma has first a white, then a black surround and a coppery brown core. Distally 
there is an “8” shaped stigma. The indistinct dentate subterminal is whitish with a shaded brownish black 
inner edge. Hindwings uniformly black-brown with coppery gloss in transparent white in Veins and 
margin dusted with brownish black. Costa Rica and Panama. 
chirica . C. chirica Schs. ( aperta Drc. 'part.) (56 e). The white forewings are dusted over with golden brown, 
only the costal area remains purer white. The 3 fine transverse lilies are black and dentate. Stigmata as in 
metaphaea , also having an “8” shaped stigma distally. The dentate dark subterminal is less distinct and has 
a whitish outer edge. Hindwings transparent white, veins, margin and inner margin black-brownish. Mexico 
to Costa Rica. 
stcniptcra, C. steniptera Schs. (56 f) resembles the preceding, but is smaller and with narrower wings, that are pale 
brown admixed with grey. The fasciae are similar, hut the stigmata are much larger with brown surrounds 
and the surround is extended to a point both on the inner and outer sides. The grey subterminal is edged in¬ 
wardly by a somewhat dentate brownish black shade. The dark marginal dots have white inner edges. French 
Guiana. 
araccu C. araea Schs. (56 f). Body and wings grey-white heavily suffused with violaceous brown. Behind the 
arched antemedian and below the cell there is a whitish spot with black centre. At end of cell a round white 
spot and distally a red-brown annulet, the outer edge of which denotes a part of a faint postmedian. Subterminal 
line whitish. Hindwings black-brown, dusted with grey. Costa Rica. 
ilotsamci . C. flotsama Dyar. Forewings grey tinged with reddish, all markings almost extinct except for the 
large irregular annulate stigma, the faint reddish outline of which forms a part of the postmedian line, as in 
the preceding species. The subterminal is a dark grey shade, wide at inner margin and tapering off upwards 
with faintly paler outer edge. Wing expanse: 20 mm. Panama (Trinidad River). 
insignis. C. insignis Dogn. Forewings grey dusted with white. On forewings only a reniform stigma and a sub- 
terminal row of black-brown small streaks are visible. The spot between veins 1 and 2 is displaced from the 
row and moved somewhat inwards. Margin somewhat more brownish between the veins. In $ hindwings black¬ 
ish. paler towards the base, in A semi-transparent white. In a $ from Panama, a dentate postmedian line is 
indicated. Wing expanse: 24—28 mm. Panama, French Guiana. 
haefnaiopis, C. haematopis Hmps. (56 f). The grey-white forewings are mingled with black-brown, basal area below 
the cell tinged with carmine-reddish. There are red streaks behind the postmedian and the subterminal. The 
stigma has a carmine-red centre in a white annulet with a black surround. The subterminal line is indicated 
by a brownish black inner shading. Hindwings transparent white. Veins, marginal area and inner margin 
dusted with blackish brown. Hindwings of A darker than those of San Salvador Argentine (Tucuman).
