Wood (1982) stated that C . parvulus is “virtually identical with uniseptis ”. I have examined the primary types of C . uniseptis Schedl (NMW), C . parvulus Blandford (BMNH), and a high–resolution photograph of the holotype of C . reburrus Bright (CNCI), previously synonymized with C . uniseptis by Wood (https://cnc.agr.gc.ca/taxonomy/Specimen.php?id=3824). Only a single species is present known from Guatemala , Chiapas, Veracruz, and Jalisco at low to intermediate elevations. Specimens seen.
