Can someone please list them here.I'm curious to know
 
Firebird.
Silverclaw.
Cecilia Reyes (arguably).
 
The current White Tiger I think.
 
This might be of help, it's not exclusively women, but............
 
why arguably? She's Puerto Rican/Hispanic-American by nationalty, black by race.

Her nationality is American. Some people argue that she's black hence the "arguably" comment.

I think it's a confusing term. White/Caucasian, Black/African, Mulatto, American Indian, Middle Eastern, Central Asian/Indo-Pak, Asian/South East Asian, etceteras distinguish people by ethnicity and are easy to understand.

But other terms are very vague. Hispanics can be anyone from a country in the American hemisphere that lives South of the United States, no matter their race. Native American is similar as it includes American Indians, Aleut/Eskimos and Aboriginal Hawaiians.

Newer census forms divide groups into sub-groups: Hispanic Caucasian, Hispanic Black, Hispanic Mesito, Hispanic other.

Yes, I do. I only lived the first four years of my life where I was born: USA. The rest of my life I've been raised in Puerto Rico. The Puetorrican race is supposed to be composed of those 3 elements you mentioned although some historians argue that the Taíno (the natives of the island) part is almost non-existent since they were pretty much annihilated before they could really mix with the other races. Still, there is still some degree of racism; nowhere near what it is in the US, thank God!

BTW, if you (or any other posters) think I'm the one arguing her Latino roots, please look at my post where I say "some people" and not "I". I was elated to have a character that had Latino blood and even more specifically Puertorrican ancestry. You don't have to be "brown" to be Latino, there are all kinds of colors here and they're ALL Puertorrican. Am I clear now?
 
The new Tarantula from Heroes for Hire is hispanic.
 
One of the Serpent Society chicks was or is (I don't know if she's still alive) a latina. Can't remember her name though...
 
There's a SHIELD agent chick...appeared in Captain America/Falcon some time ago, she is Dominican...
