_ We have some doubts whether this species ought to be included in our fauna, but 
it was originally described as coming from Honduras, and we have in our collection a 
specimen, formerly in that of Dr. Kaden, stated to be from that country. For this 
reason we admit it here. 
Its true home is undoubtedly the island of Cuba, where, according to Dr. Gundlach, 
it is common on the sea coast 2. It is included in La Sagra’s work under the name of 
Megalura poeyi, and is said to be found near Havana and also in the island of Jamaica ; 
but this latter statement requires confirmation. 
A. echemus is obviously allied to A. verticordia of the island of Haiti, and these, 
with another species recently brought by Mr. Angas from Dominica, which we have 
called A. dominicana, form a separate group of the genus probably confined to the 
West-Indian islands. For this section Westwood proposed the name Cymatogramma ; 
but in view of the great diversity of the arrangement of the costal nervures in Anea 
generally, we think it perhaps best to keep this species and its allies in that genus.

The chief distinction of this genus, if such it be, lies in the peculiarity of its markings 
as compared with some species of Anea. We can find no very tangible difference in 
structure from such species as A. electra, and we should not be surprised if at some 
future time the small-bodied large-winged species of Anga, such as A. electra, should 
be separated from Anca and placed in closer connection with Hypna and Protogonius, 
or that both these genera should be merged in Anea. 
Of Hypna we can only recognize three species, though several more have been 
suggested. These all belong to tropical America, H. clytemnestra, the only one 
occurring within our limits, having a very wide range. 
Two subcostal branches of the primaries are emitted before the end of the cell, both
