colour in the marginal spot separated from the inner margin by a narrow yellow line, the brown marking proceeds 
here to the centre of the yellowish brown marginal area. Veins 7 and 8 distantly separated and parallel, 9 and 
10 on a long stalk, and 11 arises from the basal third of the areole. Costa Rica. 
C. cossuloides Schs. (182 g) is very similar to magnified in its size and colouring, but the antennae exhibit cossuloidcs. 
a series of long pectinations and a series of short angular serrations, while those of magnified are uniformly 
bipectinated. Forewing more smoothly scaled grey, less speckled, the brown in the marginal spot strangulated 
or divided into two spots, the lower one of which reaches the margin. Veins 7 and 8 of forewing distantly separ¬ 
ated and parallel from the areole, 9 and 10 together from its apex, 11 from the basal third. Guiana and Venezuela. 
C. albimacula Dgn. (167 h). Forewing shaded with dark brown at the costal and inner margins, a white albimacula. 
spot at the cell-end, from which a broad ray extends, widening in the middle and pointed at the end; central 
area of fore wing mixed with dark yellow and striated dark. Marginal area light yellow with brown spots at the 
margin, a large one at the anal angle, and a rather small one in the middle, the lower angle of which reaches 
the margin. Hindwing dark brown. Vein 7 of forewing from the discal cell, 8 from the areole, 9 and 10 separately 
from its apex, and 11 from the basal third. I only know the <$ type. Bolivia. 
C. tacita Drc. (167 h). The species is not at hand, but Druce’s figure seems to be clear. I presume tacita. 
the antennae to be singly pectinated. The specimen figured may be a $. The whole wing is suffused with dark 
yellow with a faint brown discal shadow and dark striae, the marginal area of the ground-colour, speckled with 
white; a dull red band extends down from the apex, getting narrower below, a triangular brown spot before 
it. Honduras. 
C. salara Drc. (= corita Schs.) (169 i) is bright grey with a whitish tinge, more or less shaded dark at salctra. 
the costal and inner margins, traversed by dark strigiform lines; a dark submedian spot in the middle area 
of the wing; a dark grey marginal marking apically, a narrow black arcuate streak before it, more or less con¬ 
nected with the costal margin and distal margin by reticular markings; a narrow dark grey band at the margin, 
with reticular marking before it. Hindwing almost white with but narrow marginal markings. Vein 7 of forewing 
from the discal cell, 8 from the areole, 9 and 10 separately from its apex, and 11 from the basal third. Colombia. 
C. interrogationis sp. n. Light grey, striated dark, and darker grey at the costal and inner margins; interrogaiio- 
the middle area with a large round brownish black submedian spot, parted brown along vein 1 b; the apical nis 
marginal spot dark grey, a thick bent black marking before it, with a round dot below it, like a large inter¬ 
rogation mark on the left wing, reversely on the right wing; the narrow marginal line dark grey, an irregularly 
dentate blackish brown line before it. Vein 7 on the forewing continues the lower edge of the areole, 8 above 
it, 9 and 10 on a very short stalk, 11 from the centre of the areole. Merida (Venezuela); the type, 1 <$, not 
well preserved, in the U. S. National Museum. 
C. arpiodes Dgn. (169 i). Forewing brownish grey, speckled white, one speckle forming a round discal arpiodes. 
spot, all traversed by blackish striae; a large dark brown spot in the base of the cell and in the basal third 
of the submedian area, a submedian double spot in the distal third; the apical marginal marking is uniformly 
dark brown, an anal spot below it. Hindwing dark brown. Vein 7 of forewing from the discal cell, or 7 and 8 
from the areole, 9 and 10 on a short stalk from its apex, and 11 before its middle. Two before me, Dognin’s 
type and co-type, badly preserved, the apex of the wing in the type severely frayed. Very similar to C. arpi 
Schs., whence it evidently derives its name, but the antennae are only singly pectinated. Brazil (Amazon 
District). 
C. duplex sp. n. (182 g). A well preserved single $ from Busck’s collections in Panama is before me. duplex. 
I can in no way distinguish it from arpiodes, except that the outer pair of submedian spots are lighter 
and more with a leaden gloss than the interior spots; that may also be the case in arpiodes, but owing to the 
bad preservation of the types it cannot be decided; in any case, however, duplex seems to me to be much too 
small as arpiodes -$ and may therefore be better separately named for the present. Cabima (Panama), type in 
the U. S. National Museum, taken in May. 
C. cleptes Dyar (169 i) resembles arpiodes and duplex (182 g), but it is much smaller, more smoothly cleptes. 
grey, without white speckles, the dark spots reduced to blurred shades. Veins 7 and 8 of forewing from the 
areole, 9 from its apex, 10 from the upper exterior third, and 11 from the basal third, all the veins as far as 
the apex free. The only type is before me. British Guiana. 
C. tapajoza sp. n. (167 h). Larger than cleptes, without the dark anal spot, no white arcuate streak icipajoza. 
before the black apical area; forewing light grey, striated black with a dark shadowy spot in the submedian 
distal third. All the veins on the forewing separated, 10 less conspicuous at the ajjex of the areole than in cleptes. 
Amazons, Rio Tapajoz; type 1 $ in the LL S. National Museum.
