can be separated. Mr. Butler placed P. dejecta as a synonym of P. pisonia; if he is 
right in so doing (and we think he is), it follows, almost necessarily, that P. lithochalcis 
of Costa Rica falls under the same category.

Alis fuscis, anticis ocello nigro albo pupillato et rufo circumcincto prope angulum analem (aliquando absente) ; 
subtus rufo-fusco irroratis, fascia lata submarginali pallidiore, anticis et posticis ocello albo pupillato apud 
angulos anales, anticis quoque puncto albescente ad angulum apicalem. 
Hab. Costa Rica (Van Patten ?).— VENEZUELA ”. 
Van Patten sent a single female specimen from Costa Rica, which we refer to this 
species. It agrees closely with our Venezuelan examples; the ocellus, however, at the 
anal angle of the primaries, both above and below, is surrounded with rufous, which 
appears only to a very limited extent in our Venezuelan examples; but we consider it 
undoubtedly belongs to the same species. | 
4, Pedaliodes napa. (Tab. IX. figg. 2, 3.) 
Pedaliodes napea, Bates, Ent. Monthl. Mag. i. p. 1797. 
Alis fuscis, marginibus dentatis, fascia lata submarginali in anticis dilutiore, in posticis ferruginea ; subtus fuscis 
ferrugineo irroratis, fasciis pagine: superioris pallide notatis, ocello nigro albo pupillato angulum analem 
versus indistincte indicato. 
Hab. Guatemata, San Gerénimo (Ff. D. G. & O. 8.1, Champion), Calderas and Cerro 
Zunil (Champion). 
We only obtained a single example of this species during our stay in Guatemala, 
and this unfortunately in poor condition; but Mr. Champion has lately sent us several 
beautiful fresh specimens taken at various altitudes (ranging from 3500 feet to 6000 or 
7000 feet). It is very distinct from any other species known to us; and, so far as we 
are aware, it is peculiar to the highlands of Guatemala. 
5. Pedaliodes hulda. (Tab. IX. figg. 7, 8.) 
Pedaliodes hulda, Butl. & Druce, Cist. Ent. i. p. 99*; P.Z. 8. 1874, p. 338°. 
Alis anticis nigro-fuscis, posticis marginibus externis prope angulum analem fulvescentibus et linea obscura 
submarginali notatis ; subtus ut supra, sed anticis lineis tribus transversis rubiginosis marginibus externis 
subparallelis, una submarginali, altera interiore sed ultra cellulas, tertia interius posita ; posticis triente 
anali ferrugineo, striga interrupta transversa flava eum transeunte, ocellis duobus angulum analem versus. 
Hab. Costa Rica (Van Patten }*), Volcan de Ivazu (Rogers). 
Mr. Butler described this species from a broken specimen in Mr. Druce’s collection,
