PDF

Looking at the antennae figures 48-57 on pdf page 120 (original document lists page as 116)
https://www.fpl.fs.fed.us/documnts/fplgtr/fpl_gtr209.pdf

I see that Caenocara has a single large horn-shaped segment on the antennae while Byrrhodes has multiple medium-size horn-shaped segments. (sorry I didn't research the correct terminology)
