Alia fuscis, lineis duabus submarginalibus, interiore crenulata; posticis ocello ad angulum analem nigro, 

 ocbraceo circumcincto et plumbeo bipupillato : subtus fusco-grisescentibus, lineis duabus transversis 

 notatis, una per cellulas, altera ad finem earum, fulvis ; triente distali pallidiore ; lineis submarginalibus 

 sicut in pagina superiore, sed magis distinctis ; anticis ocello subapicali nigro, fulvo-circumcincto et 

 plumbeo bipupillato, alio supra eum et duobus infra obsoletis ; posticis ocellis duobus distinctis, uno 

 subapicali, secundo inter ramos medianos, duobus parvis inter eos et alio apicali. 



o mari similis.

Of this species, the male of which we at one time confused with E. cleophes, we 

 possess a long series of both sexes. There is very little variation in the individuals in 

 our collection, except that one of the Venezuelan females has a distinct ocellus on the 

 upperside of the primaries at the apex. No locality was given for E. themis by 

 Dr. Butler 1 , and there seems to be more than one species placed under this name in 

 the Hewitson collection. In the series before us there are specimens from Mexico and 

 Guatemala agreeing with the present insect.

2 . E. themi similis, sed anticis ocello subapicali distincto ornatis et plaga ad medium marginis externi 

 fulva : subtus anticis plaga fulva sicut in pagina superiore, lineis transversis latioribus et rufescenti-

JE. cleophes is allied to E. myncea and E. labe, but may be distinguished by the 

 absence of ferruginous markings beneath at the anal angle of the secondaries. As in
