This species is still more nearly allied to S. probetor than the last-mentioned one. 
The male may be recognized by the dark patch on the primaries spreading outwards 
towards the apical angle. In the female the spots are rufous instead of being nearly 
white; and in S. probetor there is a narrow submarginal red line not seen in the 
present insect. 
A good many specimens of this species were in Belt’s collection, and we are pleased at 
the opportunity of connecting his name with a genus of which he collected no less than 
eight species during his residence at Chontales.

Alis lete brunneis, anticis rubro intra cellulam maculatis, maculis submarginalibus in serie duplici positis,

This was another of Mr. Belt’s discoveries in Nicaragua, whence alone we have seen 
examples. It comes nearest to S. juratrix of the Amazons valley, which is, however, a 
much larger insect, besides differing in other respects. 
8. Symmachia leena.

Alis brunneis saturate rubro maculatis, in posticis confluentibus, maculis quibusdam aliis ad costam et anticarum 
angulum apicalem, albidis; posticis ad medium marginis interni penicillatis; posticis fuscis griseo-albido 
sparsim maculatis.

We have what we believe to be a female of this insect, but it is in such an injured 
condition as to be unfit for description. Though a much smaller insect, 8. Jeena has 
a general resemblance to S. cleonyma, but the peculiar tuft of hair situated on the 
secondaries, between the median and submedian nervures, at once distinguishes it, not 
only from S. cleonyma, but from all other members of the genus, except that from 
Colombia which we describe below *. 
* Symmachia harmodius. 
S. leone similis sed anticis brunneis fere immaculatis distinguendus. 
Hab. Rio San Juan, Western Colombia. 
We are indebted to Dr. Staudinger for two specimens of this insect, which formed part of an interesting 
collection made by Herr Tritsch.
