The primaries have a costal fold in the male, and a glabrous patch on the underside 

 extending from the basal half of the first median branch and the first median segment 

 to the outer margin ; this patch covers an elongated tuft of hairs arising from the cell 

 of the secondaries and directed upwards towards the costa. 



Cascina extends from Guatemala to Venezuela and the Amazons Valley.

Hab. Panama, Veraguas (ArcS), Chiriqui {Bible). — Colombia 12 . 



Hewitson's description and figure of this species were based upon a Colombian 

 specimen l , and we have seen two others, one of each sex, from our country. As 

 Hewitson observes, this species in general appearance resembles Telegonus anaphus, 

 but there is no even approximate alliance between the two insects. The female 

 closely resembles the male in colour ; the tawny tint of the anal angle is rather more 

 extended. 



2. Caecina calanus, sp. n. (Tab. lxxxi. figg. 10, 11, 12 s .) 



C. calaihance similis, sed alis latioribus ; posticis ad angulum analem minus productis, et supra ciliis tantum 

 fulvis. 



Hab. Mexico, Paso de San Juan ( W. Schaus) ; Guatemala, Polochic Valley, Pacific 

 coast (F. D. G. & 0. #.), Panima, San Geronimo (Champion). 



This species is strictly congeneric with C. calathana, the male having the same 

 characteristics. We have several specimens, representing both sexes, all from Guate- 

 mala, where it is found on both sides of the mountain-range, occurring up to an 

 elevation of 3000 feet. 



The male genitalia have a peculiar tegumen ending in two widely divergent truncate 

 hooks, two lobes arising one on either side of the middle line; the scaphium is well 

 developed and ends in two lobes covered with thickly-set papillae ; the harpes have an 

 elongated hook, the continuation of the ventral edge, ending in a sharp recurved point, 

 before which the outer edge is serrate. (See Tab. LXXXI. fig. 12.)
