(Figs 41–47)
Diagnosis. Belonging in species group “2”, subgroup 4, in the classification of Eertmoed (1986). Unlike C. prionotus, the epiproct has a slender, pointed sclerotized projection in the middle, near the posterior border. It differs from C. deliciasensis n. sp., C. garciai, C. multimaculatus and C. gregoriorum n. sp., in having the paraproctal prong with a small tooth mesally (Fig. 45).
Color. Head (Fig. 43) dark brown, anteclypeus and labrum pale brown. Compound eyes dark brown, ocelli hyaline. Antennae brown, flagellomeres with clear distal ends; maxillary palps pale brown. Meso- and metanotum light brown, with dark brown areas; thoracic pleura and legs light brown. Forewing membrane hyaline, with slightly smoked spots, mainly in pterostigma; wing margin with pale brown spots between the ends of R2+3 and Cu1a, with two spots between the ends of Cu1a and Cu1b (Fig. 41); veins brown, with a brown spot at wing margin on R1 to Cu1a. Hindwing hyaline with a smoked spot on vein ends, and one spot on wing margin between M and Cu1 (Fig. 42). Abdomen cream, clunium and hypandrium pale brown; epiproct cream, paraproct smoked, paraproctal prong brown, apically more pigmented.
Morphology. As in diagnosis plus the following: Head (Fig. 43) with vertex slightly concave in the middle; compound eyes large, their upper border slightly surpassing the level of the vertex (Fig. 43): D is 60% the length of the head front view; with interommatidial setae. Forewing (Fig. 41); membrane of pterostigma with setae, veins without spur veins. Hypandrium (Fig. 46) broad, distally rounded, with abundant medium sized setae and lateral macrosetae. Epiproct trapeziform, with two setae mesally and abundant medium sized setae posteriorly. Paraprocts (Fig. 45) with mesal tubercle little developed, with setae as illustrated; sensory fields with 16 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Phallosome narrower anteriorly, with well sclerotized areas, external parameres elongate, membranous, bearing pores; endophallic lobes broad, distally narrow, pointed; arms of aedeagal arch separate, well sclerotized, about seven times as long as wide, distally pointed (Fig. 47).

Diagnosis. Belonging in species group “1”, subgroup 1, in the classification of Eertmoed (1986). Unlike C. ramulosus, C. arboricola and C. julianae n. sp., it has the paraproctal prong forked distally, with the arms acuminate (Fig. 52); the epiproct has an emarginate posterior process, with postero-lateral corners triangular, protruding (Fig. 51). The paraproctal mesal tubercle is elongate and slightly curved outwards distally.
Color. Head (Fig. 50) dark brown, anteclypeus and labrum pale brown. Compound eyes dark brown, ocelli hyaline. Antennae pale brown, flagellomeres with clear distal ends; maxillary palps pale brown. Meso- and metanotum brown, thoracic pleura pale brown, with longitudinal ochre band from head to metepimeron; legs pale brown, front femora cream. Forewing membrane hyaline, with slightly smoked spots; pterostigma with two brown spots on costal margin; wing margin with pale brown spots between the ends of R4+5 to Cu1a (Fig. 48); veins pale brown, with brown spots along the veins and distally. Hindwing hyaline with a smoked spot on vein ends, and three spots on wing margin between M and Cu1 (Fig. 49). Abdomen cream, tergites with pale brown narrow bands, clunium and hypandrium pale brown; epiproct cream, paraproct cream, with tubercle pale brown, paraproctal prong dark brown, distally more pigmented.
Morphology. As in diagnosis plus the following: head vertex slightly concave, upper border of compound eyes slightly surpassing the level of the vertex (Fig. 50); D is 58% the length of the head in front view, almost as wide as the interocular distance (1.16); with interommatidial setae. Forewings (Fig. 48); membrane of pterostigma with setae, M veins with spur veins. Hypandrium (Fig. 53) shield-shaped, broad, anteriorly concave, distally rounded, with medium sized setae and lateral macrosetae. Epiproct (Fig. 51) with three macrosetae mesally and four macrosetae distally, with abundant medium sized setae distally. Paraprocts (Fig. 52) with mesal prong stout, strongly sclerotized, distally forked, with arms acuminate; sensory fields with 18 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Phallosome narrower anteriorly, little sclerotized, with rounded, membranous external parameres without pores; endophallic lobes broad, membranous; arms of internal parameres separate, long slender (Fig. 54).

Diagnosis. Belonging in species group “1”, subgroup 1, in the classification of Eertmoed (1986). Forewings with abundant spur veins; paraproctal tubercle enlarged, but without a distinct “thumb”, that makes it different from C. ramulosus and C. arboricola. Unlike C. eertmoedi n. sp. and C. uncinatus, it has a single, acuminate paraproctal prong (Fig. 59) and the epiproct has a short, distally concave projection (Fig. 58).

Hindwing hyaline, with a smoked spot on vein ends, and on wing margin between M and Cu1 (Fig. 56). Abdomen cream, with light brown bands, clunium and hypandrium pale brown; phallosome brown; epiproct cream, with central-posterior border brown; paraprocts cream, with paraproctal prong dark brown distally.
Morphology. As in diagnosis plus the following: Head vertex straight, almost at the same level with the upper border of the compound eyes (Fig. 57); D is 53% the length of the head in front view, almost as wide as the interocular distance (0.95); with interommatidial setae. Forewings (Fig. 55); membrane pterostigma without setae, with one spur vein. Hypandrium (Fig. 60) broad, distally rounded, anteriorly concave, with abundant medium sized setae and six subapical macrosetae. Epiproct with posterior projection concave, postero-lateral corners rounded; two macrosetae mesally, and four latero-distal macrosetae, with field of medium sized setae distally as illustrated (Fig. 58). Paraprocts (Fig. 59) with mesal process little developed, with medium sized setae and macrosetae as illustrated; mesal prong stout, strongly sclerotized, curved and distally acuminate; sensory fields with 19 trichobothria on basal rosettes. Phallosome slightly sclerotized, piriform, external parameres rounded, membranous, bearing pores; endophallic lobes broad, diverging posteriorly; arms of internal parameres long, slender, separate, with a wide, pigmented transverse area between them (Fig. 61).
