338 RHOPALOCERA. 
A. titan is one of Lindig’s discoveries in Colombia, and was described by Dr. Felder’ 
in ‘Voyage of the Novara.’ 
Mr. Druce remarks that the Costa-Rican example is darker and larger than others 
from Colombia; but on these points we see no difference when the specimen is com- 
pared with a typical one received from Dr. Felder himself.

3. Anza aidea.

Alis testaceis fuseo marginatis, anticarum cellule fine et linea angusta sinuosa a costa margini externo sub- 
parallela in posticarum apicem extensa fuscis; subtus sordide cineriis fusco irroratis, anticis ad marginem 
internum ferrugineis. 
Q mari similis, sed major notatione alarum fusca latiore multo magis distincta. 
Hab. Mexico, Milpas in Durango (Forrer), Cordova (Riimeli), Oaxaca (Fenochio), 
Campeachy (Perbosc'), Valladolid in Yucatan (Gaumer); GuaveMALa, Chisoy valley 
(Hague), Central valleys and Polochic valley (F. D. G. & O. S.), San Gerénimo and 
Teleman (Champion) ; Nicaragua, Chontales (Belt). 
This species was described by Guérin from a specimen taken on board ship in the 
Bay of Campeachy !. . 
It has some close allies in the West-Indian Islands, and in Texas a species (A. ops, 
Druce) occurs which probably spreads across the Rio Grande into our borders; but we 
have no evidence that this is the case. 
In Mexico and Guatemala A. aidea is a common species, but we have not traced it 
southwards beyond Nicaragua.

Mr. Bates described this species from specimens sent to us from the State of Panama !, 
.and soon afterwards it was described and figured by Felder*®. The insect called P. helie 
by Messrs. Butler and Druce + also belongs here, as the specimens testify.
