everywhere throughout the range of the species, but the darker individuals are preva- 
lent in Mexico and in the south, the light-banded ones predominating in the inter- 
mediate countries, especially in Costa Rica. 
LE. tenedia was based upon Venezuelan examples} which are now in our possession. 
5. Emesis vulpina, sp. nov. 
E. tenedie similis sed alis supra multo rufescentioribus vix lineolatis ; subtus quoque pallidioribus fere ochraceis 
lineolis subobsoletis. 
© nobis ignota. 
Hab. Muxico, Presidio near Mazatlan (Forrer). 
Mr. Forrer procured us three specimens in this locality, which, so far as we know, is 
considerably outside the range of E. tenedia. 
£. vulpina almost approaches E. fatimella in the colour of its wings, but is still 
duller than that species. 
6. Emesis lupina, sp. nov. (Tab. XLII. figg. 13,146, 152.) 
H,, tenedi@ similis sed alis multo grisescentioribus lineolis pagine superioris magis obviis ; subtus pallidioribus, 
lineolis plerumque evanescentibus. 
Hab. Honpuras, San Pedro (G. I. Whitely); Nicaragua, Chontales (Belt); Costa 
Rica, Irazu, San Francisco (Rogers). 
The greyer colour of the wings of this Emesis seems to be its chief characteristic 
whereby to distinguish it from ZL. tenedia. This also affects the female as well as the 
male. Most of our specimens are from Costa Rica, where Rogers obtained a good many 
examples. 
7. Emesis tegula, sp. nov. 
E, tenedice quoque similis sed alis fulvescentioribus lineolis pagine superioris magis distinctis; subtus ferru- 
gineis rufo lineolatis, posticis punctis submarginalibus fuscis notatis, 
2 alis omnino pallidioribus lineolis alarum supra et subtus magis conspicuis. 
Hab. Mexico, Valladolid in Yucatan (Gaumer); GuaTEMAaa, Zapote (Champion) ; 
Nicaracua (Bridges); Panama, Calobre (Arcé), Lion Hill (M*Leannan). 
Though we have compared this species with E. tenedia, its nearer allies are E. aurelia, 
of North Brazil, and #. diogenia, of Rio Janeiro and its neighbourhood. In both these 
species the submarginal spots of the secondaries beneath are well developed. They 
are just indicated in EL. tegula, more so in the female than in the male. 
LE. teguia is a rare species to us, and the above-mentioned localities are each repre- 
sented in our collection by only a specimen or two.
