Holotype. Male imago, Sancti Spíritus Province , Mina Carlota (Montañas de Trinidad), 22-III-1925.

The species was described from two males from Mina Carolota in Trinidad, Sancti Spíritus Province, collected in March 1925 (not 1935, an error in Peters 1971). Five other specimens from Cuba (C. Wright) were included among the paratypes. The Trinidad mountain locality has been revisited but the species was not found ( Cañizares 1998) and the nymph is unknown. Kluge (1994) also did not find the species in collections from the Central region and considers that it is a rare, localized endemic or possibly a variation or third subspecies of C. hespera .

Ecology. No ecological data.

Geographic distribution. Currently considered endemic to a localized area in the center of the island ( Fig. 10 View Figures 10–13 ).
