188 RHOPALOCERA. 
E. cela seems to be allied to E. emerantia, Hew., a Colombian form not found 
within our limits. There is another allied species in Western Colombia, which has 
not yet received a name so far as we are aware. 
10. Eresia pecilina. (Tab. XX. figg. 19, 20.) 
Eresia pecilina, Bates, Ent. Monthl. Mag. i. p. 183°. 
Alis anticis fusco-nigris, dimidio apicali frequenter flavo maculato; posticis fulvis, costa et margine externo (ad 
angulum apicalem late) fusco-nigris, maculis sex submarginalibus alteraque interiore flavis notatis: subtus 
ut supra, anticis ad basin fulvis, posticarum costa ad basin flava. 
Hab. Panama, Santa Fé (Arcé’). 
A single female specimen is all that we have yet received of this Hresia; this formed 
part of a collection sent us by our collector Arcé, and was taken by him near Santa Fé 
in the State of Panama. This specimen was described by Mr. Bates in 1866}. 
E. pecilina has a very close ally in E. ithomioides, an insect described by Hewitson 
from a specimen obtained by Mr. Birchall in Colombia. This has now passed into our 
possession, and proves to be a male, differing in having a much broader dark outer 
margin to the secondaries, which, instead of tapering to nothing towards the anal 
angle, as in EL. pecilina, continues as a broad black band to the inner margin. 
The homeeochromatic associates of E. pecilina are Tithorea pinthias, Mechanitis 
isthmia, Calithomia hezia, &c. 
Our figure is taken from the unique type. 
6. Wings less elongated than in group a; wings of all the species spotted or banded 
with white or yellowish white; sexes nearly alike in colour. 
11. Kresia myia. 
Eresia myia, Hew. Ex. Butt., Eresia, t. 3. ff. 16, 17°. 
Alis nigro-fuscis, anticis macula magna rotunda apud ramum medianum primum, aliisque minoribus ultra 
cellulam albis; posticis fascia transversa mediana alba: subtus maculis albis ut supra, anticis ad basin 
ferrugineis, apicibus brunneo et fusco marmoratis; posticis ad basin fusco irroratis, dimidio distali 
nebuloso, maculis irregulariter notato, lineis undulatis apud marginem externum. 
@. Mari similis, sed major et maculis magis distinctis. 
Hab. Mexico’, Cordova (Riimeli, Hoge), Oaxaca (Lenochio) ; GuatEMaLa, Choctum 
(Hague), Cahabon and Cubilguitz (Champion) ; Nicaragua, Chontales (Janson). 
_ This and the following species are perhaps out of place in this genus, and may have 
to be removed into Phyciodes, to some species of which, both in the markings of the 
underside and the shape of the outer margins of the primaries, they bear a close 
resemblance. The wings, however, especially in H. ofella, are more elongated than is 
usual in Phyciodes; so we place them in Hresia for the present. 
E. myia is best distinguished from £. ofella by the rufous colour of the base of the
