Hab. Norta America, Texas \—Mexico (Deppe, Mus. Berol.); Guaremaua, Cachil, 
Vera Paz (Champion). 
Mr. Champion has recently sent us several specimens of this pretty species, all taken 
3000 or 4000 feet above the sea, on the steep hill-side near the village of Cachil, and 
overlooking the plain of Salama in Vera Paz. These agree very fairly with Mr. W. H. 
Hdwards’s description of his H. rubricata, described from Texan specimens. In 
Guatemala the insect is doubtless very local in its distribution. Mr. Champion only 
obtained it in one place; and we never met with it ourselves, nor have we received it 
from any other collector. Two years ago we examined five specimens of a Euptychia 
in the Berlin Museum, two of which were of Deppe’s collecting, the others from Texas. 
From our notes we have little doubt they all belong to E. rubricata.

Alis supra ferrugineo-fuscis ; posticis rotundatis, extus paulo sinuatis: subtus alis cinerascentioribus ; linea sub- 
marginali nigricante, altera valde sinuata, tertia fere recta ultra cellulam, et quarta indistincta per 
cellulam notatis ; anticis ocellis quinque albo pupillatis sed indistinctis serie submarginali positis ; posticis 
quoque ocellis quinque notatis, secundo et tertio obsoletis. 
Hab. Costa Rica (Gabb*).—CoLomBia. 
This species was originally described from specimens of which the locality was not 
recorded’. These are now before us, and agree fairly with the specimen referred by 
Mr. Distant to £. oreba in his supplementary enumeration of Costa-Rican butterflies °. 
We have also specimens from the neighbourhood of Santa Marta, Colombia, which we 
consider to belong to the same species. Between these specimens, five in number, a 
certain amount of variation exists, but not enough to justify their separation without 
more materials. The Costa-Rica example comes nearest to the type.
