| Taxonomic Comments | At first glance could pass for C. DECOLORARIA but details of the lines and other color pattern scheme differ. Possibly is a southern race of DECOLORARIA but Schweitzer notes specimens from southern NJ and the Virginia piedmont are normal and do not match this. Known only from a very few specimens collected by Steve Hall in the North Carolina outer coastal plain. Genus very rarely encountered south of New Jersey except in mountains.
