466 RHOPALOCERA. 
M‘Leannan and Arcé have sent us a few specimens, and where, quite recently, 
Mr. J. J. Walker also found it. 
The difference in the size of the spots of the primaries of individuals of this species 
renders it an obviously variable one; there is also great diversity in the size of the 
insect. 
Its nearest ally is perhaps L. aurinia.

This well-marked species has its nearest ally in L. glaphyre of South Brazil, but it is 
twice as large as that insect, besides other points of difference. 
It was described by Dr. Felder from specimens taken by Dr. Moritz in Venezuela, 
whence it has been traced to the neighbourhood of Santa Marta and Panama. 
Mr. Champion took it near the city, and Mr. Walker in the island of Taboga in the 
bay. 
These western specimens differ slightly from Dr. Felder’s figure, having more rufous 
on the upper surface of the primaries.

Apodemia, Felder, Reise d. Nov. Lep. p. 302 (1865). 
Dr. Felder separated this species from Lemonias, placing in it certain species found 
in the south-western States of North America and in Northern Mexico. The number of 
these now amounts to seven or eight, of which six are found in our region, all of them 
in Northern Mexico. 
The neuration of the primaries in A. cythera resembles that of Lemonias, except that 
the middle discocellular is much less atrophied; the costal and distal sides of the cell 
are subequal, the lower discocellular meets the median a long way beyond the second 
branch. 
In the front legs of the male the trochanter is inserted some way beyond the middle 
of the coxa; the femur is short=4 coxa, slightly dilated towards its distal end ;
