Diagnosis. Male imago:
1) dorsal portion of turbinate eyes oval (
Fig. 7
A); 2) dorsal portion of turbinate eyes in lateral view without constriction; 3) dorsal portion of turbinate eyes stalk height 1.9 × height of dorsal portion; 4) turbinate portion of compound eyes (in lateral view) with anterior and posterior margins subparallel; 5) forewing with three transversal bands on apical third, base without pigmentation (Fig.
111 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 6) marginal intercalary veins paired (Fig.
111 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 7) hind wing hyaline (Fig.
112 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 8) costal process of hind wing rounded (Fig.
112 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 9) marginal intercalary veins on hind wing present (Fig.
112 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 10) abdominal terga covered with spots and terga III, V and VII with lateral, inverted V mark (
Fig. 7
A); 11) abdominal sterna covered with spots and with one anterolateral mark (
Fig. 7
B); 12) abdominal sterna with pair of medioanterior and medioposterior sigilla weakly pigmented (
Fig. 7
B); 13) forceps segment I wide at base (Fig.
110 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 14) forceps segment III oval (Fig.
110 in
Cruz
et al.
2014).
Female imago:
1) forewing with pigment in C and Sc areas, overpassing R1, and after R2 pigmentation lighter (Fig.
114 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 2) marginal intercalary veins paired (Fig.
114 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 3) hind wing with mark near costal process (Fig.
115 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 4) costal process of hind wing rounded (Fig.
1151 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 5) marginal intercalary veins on hind wing present (Fig.
115 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 6) abdominal terga covered with spots, medially with longitudinal mark, and terga III, V and VII with lateral inverted V mark (Fig.
113 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 7) abdominal sterna covered with spots (Fig.
116 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 8) abdominal sterna with pair of medioanterior sigilla and medioposterior sigilla weak pigmented (Fig.
116 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 9) abdominal sterna medially, on anterior margin, without one large spot.
Mature nymph:
1) maxillary palp subequal in length of galea-lacinia (Fig.
122 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 2) below maxillary palp insertion on outer margin with tuft of robust spine-like setae (Fig.
122 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 3) paraglossa with row of spine-like setae on ventral surface (Fig.
123 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 4) segment III of labium apically rounded (Fig.
123 in
Cruz
et al.
2014); 5) metanotum without spines; 6) foretarsus anterior surface without spine-like setae; 7) hind claw denticles smaller than foreclaw denticles (Fig. 125D in Cruz
et al.
2014).
Comments.
The female imago of
C
. (
C.
)
jocosus
is similar to
C
. (
C.
)
zonalis
,
C
. (
C.
)
willineri
and
C.
(
C.
)
guttatus
(see
C.
(
C.
)
guttatus
comments). The female imago of
C
. (
C.
)
jocosus
can be differentiated from these three species by the abdominal sterna covered with spots (Fig.
116 in
Cruz
et al.
2014) (in contrast to
C.
(
C.
)
guttatus
); abdominal sterna medially, on anterior margin, without one large spot (in contrast to
C
. (
C.
)
willineri
); and marginal intercalary veins on hind wing present (in contrast to
C
. (
C.
)
zonalis
).

, have here their species status revalidated. For the diagnoses, redescriptions and comments, see their respective species sections.
The specimens studied by
Navás (1912)
from São Paulo, Brazil, were not found, thus the lectotype was not designated.
