 Hesperia gura, Plotz, Stett. ent. Zeit. 1883, p. 41 2 . 



Alis fuscis, stigmate concolore ; anticis maculis duabus ad cellulae finem inter ramos medianos, exteriore minore, 

 interdum una quoque submediana, punctisque tribus in linea transversa (interdum una infra eos) 

 subapicalibus, posticis nonnunquam puncto minuto ultra eellulam (interdum absente), omnibus hyalinis t 

 subtus paulo rufescentioribus, posticis puncto (interdum duobus) ultra eellulam albido ; capite et corpore 

 virescentibus. 



2 mari similis. 



Eab. Mexico, Teapa (E. H. Smith)-, Guatemala, San Geronimo (Champion); 

 Panama, Chiriqui 2 (Bible, in mus. Staudinger 1 ). — Venezuela. 



Hewitson described this species from a specimen from Chiriqui in Dr. Staudinger's 

 collection. We have seen ten examples altogether, all but one from Central America. 

 A male insect from Chiriqui is figured; also the fore wing, to show the great 

 development of the brand (Tab. XCIX. fig. 12), and the genitalia, for which latter see 

 Tab. XCIX. fig. 13. 



3. Eutychide ochus, sp. n. (Tab. XCIX. figg. 14, 15, 16, d .) 



E. midice persimilis, sed minor, anticis maculis discalibus quoque minoribus ; colore viridi minus obvio. 



Hal. Mexico, Atoyac (E. H. Smith) ; Nicaeagua, Chontales (Belt). —Amazons. 



Five specimens of this species have been seen by us, all males, three being from 

 within our limits. It is very like E. midia, but differs as noticed above. E. ochus 

 also closely resembles Bhinthon cynea, but may be separated from it by the form of the 

 brand on the primaries, and by the absence of the pale patch at the anal angle of 

 these wings beneath. The genitalia of the male are very similar to those of E. midia, 

 see Tab. XCIX. fig. 16. The insect figured is from Atoyac. 



4. Eutychide orthos, sp. n. (Tab. XCIX. figg. 17, 18, 19, 6 .) 



Alis fuscis, stigmate concolore, anticis maculis duabus ad cellulse finem inter ramos medianos, exteriore minore, 

 albo-nyalinis : subtus ut supra, sed purpureo tinctis, anticis area mediana nigrescente, ad angulum analem 

 stnga albida, posticis immaculatis ; capite et corpore supra virescentibus ; abdomine subtus albo ; palpis 

 fusco-griseis. 



$ ignota. 



Eab. Panama, Chiriqui (ex Staudinger). 



We possess three males of this species, all obtained from Dr. Staudinger. It is very 

 like E. ochus, but smaller, the brand on the primaries is much less developed (each 

 of the streaks being narrow), and the genitalia are differently formed. From small 

 examples of the same sex of Bhinthon cynea (Hew.) (=B. kasus, Moschl.) it may at 

 once be separated by the shape of the brand and by the absence of the pencil of hairs 

 beneath the median nervure towards the base. For the genitalia of the male see 

 Tab. XCIX. fig. 19.
