Scutellum usually with pale mesial band beginning most often caudad of basal disc and continuing to apex, this band often bordered subapicallly with elongated patch of dark castaneus to fuscous punctures. Pale, trans humeral band often present, limited posteriorly by narrow, irregular callus; latter sometimes bordered posteriorly by narrow band of rufous to fuscous punctures. Exocoria often pale, at least basally.</p><p>Juga projecting slightly beyond tylus, causing shallow emargination in apex of head, their lateral margins briefly parallel or subparallel before rather shallow an terocular concavity.

Argentina (Buenos Aires, Catamarca, Cordoba, Mendoza, San Luis, Tucumfan); Bolivia (La Paz); Uruguay (Colonia).

Dr. Jocelia Grazia compared a female specimen sent to herwith the holotype of  C. cogitabunda, a female, and judged the two specimens to be conspecific. The holotype  Thyanta elegantula, a male, was examined.</p><p>Comments.  C. cogitabunda is the only species in the genus in which the juga are longer than the tylus, thus creating a shallow emargination in the apex of the head. It is also the only one with distinctly concave anterolateral pronotal margins; in the other species these margins are weakly concave or straight.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/2E1C87CAFF8DB027FDE6B61C2E63F7D5	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Ranging from southern California, Arizona, Texas and Florida through Middle America and the West Indies, across northern South America and as far south as northern Peru in the Andean region.</p><p>Comments. The tumescent basal plates of females are distinctive and unique within the genus; and only in this species and  elegans do the parameres completely conceal the denticle or carina on each lateral wall of the genital cup.  Cyptocephala antiguensis lacks the calloused pleural bands that are characteristic of  elegans .</p><p>In the western range of this species, at least as far south as western Panama, the lobes of the parameres are quite unequal inwidth (Fig. 6). In the eastern range these lobes are subequal in width from Puerto Rico southward throughout the Lesser Antilles and South America (Fig. 3, right). However, the typical western form also occurs in Florida, Cuba, and Jamaica, and intermediates between the western and eastern forms occur in Florida, Cuba and Hispaniola (Fig. 3, left). Whether or not there is a comparable zone of intergration in eastern Panama and / or the contiguous part of Colombia is unknown, but most of the few males seen from western Panama do show a narrowing of the anterior lobe.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/2E1C87CAFF8BB023FDA5BC3C2978FCE7	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
