ESTHEMOPSIS. 413 
This species is, as Dr. Staudinger says, closely allied to HE. clonia, one of the 
chief differences being in the band of the primaries, which in Z. strigosa consists of 
four spots in a nearly straight row, and in Z. clonia of five or six in a curve. The 
radiating stripes between the nervules are more marked in £. strigosa, whence its 
name. 
Herr Ribbe supplied Dr. Staudinger with his types, and we have examples from the 
same source, and also several others sent us by Mr. Champion, who met with it in the 
same district frequented by LH. clonia.

Alis chalybeo-nigris, anticis fascia obliqua subapicali venis divisa alba; subtus ut supra, posticis ceeruleo radio- 
latis ; prothorace undique, fronte et palpis rubris ; cruribus anticis fuscis, medialiter albidis. 
Q nobis ignota. 
Hab. Guatemata 2, forests of Northern Vera Paz (F. D. G. & 0.8.1), Polochic valley, 
Choctum (Hague). 
Of this species we captured a single male specimen in the forest-region of Vera Paz, 
north of Coban, at an altitude of about 1200 feet above the sea; and from the same 
district, as well as from the valley of the Polochic, Mr. Hague sent us three other 
examples. Mr. Champion did not meet with it. 
The insect figured as this species by Hewitson is distinct, for not only is the band of 
the primaries different, but the prothorax and palpi are black. 
4, Esthemopsis (?) czeruleata. (Tab. XLI. figg. 6, 7.) 
Limnas ceruleata, Godm. & Salv. P. Z. 8. 1878, p. 362°. 
Alis ceruleo-nigris, anticis fascia transversa ultracellulari flava; subtus anticis ut supra colore czeruleo absente ; 
posticis lineis ceruleis longitudinalibus ad angulum analem ornatis; fronte et cruribus anticis flavis. 
Hab. Panama, Chiriqui (2ibde 1). 
The single specimen of this species obtained by Herr Ribbe in Chiriqui is the only 
one we have yet met with. We are in some doubt as to the correct position of the 
species, which was originally referred to the genus Limnas. On further consideration 
we now think it belongs rather to Esthemopsis, but until we obtain sufficient materials 
to make a fuller dissection we must leave the matter in doubt. We can detect no 
outward structural character not shared by Esthemopsis; and the anal angle of the 
secondaries being somewhat produced corresponds with what we find in such species as 
Esthemopsis clonia, while the radiating blue lines on the secondaries beneath resemble 
those of E. alicia. 
E. ceruleata would be an abnormal species as regards its coloration in any genus yet 
known to us, but has some features in common with Lucilla.
