Hab. Guatemata, Polochic valley, San Gerdnimo (Hague).—CoLomB1a ?. 
For this species we are indebted to Mr. Hague, whose collectors, employed in our 
behalf, secured three male specimens and one female in the valley of the Polochic and 
at San Gerénimo. The fact that Mr. Champion, working over the same ground, did 
not meet with it, is sufficient testimony to its rarity. The statement of its occurrence 
in Colombia rests on the authority of a specimen in Mr. H. G. Smith’s collection, said 
to have been obtained in that country by Mr. Birchall’. This specimen was examined 
by Mr. Druce, but we have not seen it ourselves. 
A. aureola was compared by Mr. Bates with 4. anassa1, but its distinctness from that 
species is very obvious. Unless it be 4. dia, now described, and 4. polyxo of South 
America, 4. aureola has no near affines. 
6. Body slender, anal angle of secondaries produced as a lobe. 
c’. Secondaries of both sexes bearing a spatule. 
30. Anza electra.

Hab. Muxico?, Vera Cruz1; British Honpuras, Corosal (Roe+); Guatemaa, 
Polochic valley (Hague*), San Gerdénimo (Hague, Champion), Panima ( Champion) ; 
Nicaracua, Chontales (Belt) ; Costa Rica (Van Patten ®); Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 
(Arcé, Champion). 
The type of this species is said to have come from Vera Cruz, but we have no 
Mexican examples. In Guatemala, however, the species is by no means uncommon, 
and is found throughout the lowlands of the eastern districts and as far north as the 
vicinity of Corosal in British Honduras. Southwards it occurs everywhere, as far ag 
the neighbourhood of Chiriqui, beyond which point it has not been traced. 
A. electra has no near ally in the genus, but belongs to the same section as 4. 
jansont and others, the common characters of which are indicated above. 
Mr. Champion found this species in dense forest, where it was seen flying round 
the tops of the highest trees, but occasionally descending to the streams, and settling 
on the overhanging boughs.
