margins parallel; forewing with inner apical cell mostly membranous (female 
with translucent areole in each of third and fourth apical cells also); an- 
teapical cells with bases approximately in same transverse line, all located 
more basally than apex of clavus; base of fourth apical cell a continuation of 
base of third; length of first posterior tarsomere distinctly greater than com- 
bined length of two more distal tarsomeres. Male with pygofer subangulate’ 
apically, macrosetae very elongate; plates extending posteriorly beyond 
pygofer apex; style extending posteriorly as far as apex of connective; connec- 
tive with arms much shorter than stem; aedeagus in lateral view gradually 
broader in apical half, with apex truncate. Other structural characters as in 
generic description. 
Color of face, anterior dorsum and forewings black, the last suffused with 
brown; a spot in claval apex of female, and spots at apices of anteapical cells 
of both sexes, red; a hyaline costal spot opposite base of outer apical cell; legs 
yellow, venter of thorax black. 
Holotype male and one male with genitalia lost, and one female, Colonia 
Ranfis, Prov. Trujillo, Dominican Republic, December 26, 1955 (J. Maldo- 
nado Capriles) (USNM). 
C. glabra, n. sp., is slightly smaller than other species in the genus, and the 
only species which does not have longitudinal stripes on the forewings.

Length of male 6.9-7.0 mm. Head with median length of crown six-tenths 
interocular width and approximately one-third transocular width, contour of 
lower portion of clypellus slightly more nearly horizontal than profile of 
remainder of face. Thorax with pronotal width slightly less than transocular 
width of head, lateral margins parallel; forewing without a membrane; ante- 
apical cells with bases located more basally than claval apex; base of fourth 
apical cell more proximal than base of third; length of first posterior tar- 
somere slightly greater than combined length of two more distal tarsomeres. 
Male with pygofer convex apically; plates not extending posteriorly as far as 
pygofer apex; style not extending posteriorly as far as apex of connective; con- 
nective with arms much shorter than stem; aedeagus in lateral view not 
broadened apically, apex not truncate; paraphysis median. Other structural 
characters as in generic description. 
Color of dorsum including forewings shining black, forewings with a 
diagonal claval stripe bordering claval suture, a parallel stripe on corium and 
a small spot laterad of apex of latter, blue, a slender transverse stripe ex- 
tending from costal margin. across anteapical cells to margin of inner apical 
cell, ivory tinged with blue; face and thoracic pleura shining black, legs 
yellow.
