REMARK Benoit (1966) stated that the type of C. maculata ( Roewer, 1953 ) was a juvenile specimen of the species described in the adult stage as C. tullgreni ( Roewer, 1953 ) ( Fig. 8 ). We show however that the holotype specimen of C. maculata ( Roewer, 1953 ) is not a juvenile but an adult female ( Fig. 7 ).
