Definition and diagnosis.
Superficially somewhat resembles sympatric
Cecropterus trebia
(Möschler, 1879)
but differs from it and other relatives by completely brown hindwing ventral surface (without white at the outer margin, but with whitish fringes) and 4 subapical hyaline spots on the forewing. It also resembles
Spicauda
Grishin, 2019
but differs in the hyaline spot in forewing cell M
3
-CuA
1
, being dash-like and strongly offset from the cell base and discal hyaline band. Keys (imperfectly) to “
Urbanus carmelita carmelita
” (C.13. 22(b)) in
Evans (1952)
but differs from this species currently known as
Cecropterus carmelita
(Herrich-Schäffer, 1869)
(
type
locality in
Brazil
) by vestigial, line-like and not scalloped white outer marginal band on the hindwing underside (the fringe in mostly white from the apex to vein CuA
1
); differs also from the somewhat similar
Cecropterus athesis
(
Hewitson, 1867
)
by longer hindwing tails and hyaline spot in forewing cell CuA
2
-1A+2A being better aligned with the discal band, and by the lack of a darker-brown line along the outer margin of ventral hindwing, which is replaced with a vestigial white band. In male genitalia (
Fig. 229–230
), most similar to
Cecropterus doryssus
(Swainson, 1831)
(

locality in

) and relatives but differs from them by less angled harpe with rounder curve from ventral to posterior margin and with serrated dorsal margin that is more prominently expanded into a small distal lobe. This species is not cryptic and is unambiguously recognizable by its phenotype. The following base pairs are diagnostic in the nuclear genome: aly
