postmeclian line and a shadow in place of the undulate line; marginal line dentate. Hindwing blackish 
with darker veins and marginal band and white fringe. Expanse of wings: 42 mm. French Guiana. 
C. varona Schs. ( florella Drc.) (152 f) has white forewings strewn with olive grey, an olive brown 
band is somewhat narrower in the cell and edged with black lines, connected at the inner margin with the 
double postmedian line the distal portion of which exhibits small black vein-dots; a triangular olive grey sub- 
apical spot at the costal margin. Fringe white and speckled dark. Hindwing brownish-black with yellowish 
fringe. Brazil (Castro, Parana). Dyar places also Dognina peruda to this species, distinguished by whiter 
forewings and white hindwings. 
C. batama Schs. Forewing brown, whitish at the base and inner angle, with a long white subapical 
spot enclosing 4 small black spots at the costal margin; dark double transverse lines are rather indistinct, a 
dark median shadow between them with a lighter cellular spot. Hindwing yellowish-white, brownish distally. 
Expanse of wings: 36 mm. Brazil (Rio de Janeiro). 
C. zabena Schs. (152 f) is somewhat similar, forewing brown dusted with violettish-grey, the lower 
half of the distal margin white strewn with black, and the same white long costal-marginal spot enclosing 4 
small black spots and 2 dark longitudinal streaks behind it; the double transverse lines very indistinct. Hind¬ 
wing dark brown, lighter basad. Mexico. 
C. zabenilla Deign. (152 f) is very similar to zabena, but somewhat smaller, with narrower wings, the 
brown colour more extensive, the white subapical spot at the costal margin much smaller and dusted with 
grey, the lower half of the distal margin quite brown, intermixed with very few white scales; the other markings 
are exactly the same. Hinclwing lighter, more whitish. Guiana, Colombia. 
C. malocampoides Dyar. Eorewing olive green strewn with grey, with round lighter spots at the base 
of the inner margin, anal angle and subapically at the costal margin, the veins finely strewn with black; of 
the fine black dentate transverse lines only the median line is double, the distal one and interior one single, 
the former with black vein-dots behind it; a dark brown shadowy spot at the cell-end encloses a black dot; 
light small roundish spots on the margin, the fringe speckled dark. Expanse of wings: 40 mm. Peru. 
C. cucullioides Schs. (= lignosa Dogn., pigritia Dogn.) (152 f). Forewing light brown, strewn darker, 
especially behind the middle, narrowly whitish at the margin, with fine black veins; transverse lines faded, 
strongly notched, a thick black dot behind the post median line between the median nervules. Hindwing whitish, 
narrowly brownish at the margin with black veins and marginal line, and an anal spot parted by light. Colombia, 
Brazil. 
89. Genus: Jftincodes Schs. 
Separated from the following genus Talmenia by the serrate antennae, erect stronger palpi, and long 
scale-tuft on the abdomen. Neuration exactly the same as that of Talmenia. Only 1 species: 
Type of genus: B. minuia Drc. 
R. minuta Drc. may coincide with clara Or. IV, t. CCCC, fig. L, nec t. CCCXI. Eorewing dark brown 
with 2 long metallic silvery stripes, the first in the cell near the base, the second behind it almost to the margin, 
before which there is a series of dark brown internerval stripes. Hindwing reddish-brown with a darker margin. 
Expanse of wings: 40 mm. Amazons, Manaos. 
90. Genus: Talmenia Mschlr. 
c? antennae studded with short ciliary tufts, the feeble palpi porrect, scantily haired. Eorewing with 
an obliquely rounded distal margin; vein 5 arises from the centre of the cross-vein, 6 from the centre of the 
areole, 7 and 8 stalked with 9 from the apex of the areole, vein 10 arises before its end. Costal margin of 
hindwing somewhat convex in the basal half, apex pointed, neuration not different from that of Chadisra. Only 
1 species: 
Type of genus: T. arsilonchoides Mschlr. 
T. arsilonchoides Mschlr. has light yellowish loam-coloured forewings with finely striped brownish 
veins and similar internerval stripes, a faint darker longitudinal submedian patch from the base to the margin 
between the lower radials; 2 dark dots at the cell-end; one above the other, another dot in the centre of the 
cell; no transverse lines whatever, a few dark vein-dots instead of the posterior line. Hindwing whitish, 
feebly brownish at the margin, inner margin with brown hair. Guiana.
