There can be no doubt that Cramer’s two figures represent sexes of one species; and 
though the female is figured as LZ. irenea, that name should be retained as the older. 
The range of the species is very extensive, embracing the whole of the northern por- 
tions of the continent of South America, thence spreading through Central America as 
far north as Guatemala; but restricted to the low forest-ground. 
So far as the males are concerned there is but little variation in colour, but great 
diversity exists in the width of the white band common to both wings of the female.

Hewitson’s description of this species, from which we have derived our own, was 
based upon a Panama example; we only possess a male which formed part of Belt’s 
collection. These, though differing widely, we have little doubt represent sexes of one 
and the same species. 
L. labotas has no near allies that we know of, but the male somewhat recalls J. molina 
on the upper side, though the differences are very obvious.

The members of this genus have usually been associated with Apodemia, either as a 
separate genus or as a section of Lemonias, but the presence in the primaries (1. epulus) 
of a distinct upper discocellular nervule serves to distinguish what appears to be really
