EHOPALOCERA. 681 



Phyciodes tulcis (I. p. 203). 



To the localities given, add : — Mexico, Tampico and Ciudad Victoria in Tamaulipas, 

 Sierra Madre de Tepic, San Bias {Richardson), Vera Cruz (F. J). G.), Dos Arroyos, Atoyac, 

 Teapa (H. H. Smith) ; Guatemala, Volcan de Santa Maria (Richardson) : Hondukas, 

 Euatan I. (Gaumer); Nicaragua, Matagalpa (Richardson). 



Phyciodes ardys (I. p. 204). 



To the localities given, add : — Mexico, Omilteme, Acaguizotla, Soledad, Amula 

 (H. H. Smith), Orizaba (Elwes), Cuesta de Misantla (Trujillo) ; Nicaragua, Matagalpa 

 (Richardson). 



With the long series of specimens we now possess from Mexico, we are convinced 

 that P. hermas (Hew.) cannot be separated from P. ardys, of which P. subota and 

 P. drymwa, G. & S., are probably only extreme forms. 



32 (a). Phyciodes alexon. (Tab. CV1IL %g. 23, 24, s ; 25, 26, ? .) 



Phyciodes alexon, Godm. & Salv. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (6) iii. p. 353 ($ ? ) (1889) \ 



P. nebulosce affinis, sed anticarum maeulis omnibus pallide flavidis (nee ferrugineis), lineis et maculis dimidiis 



distalis posticarum quoque flavidis distinguenda. 

 2 mari similis, sed major et maculis omnibus magis distinctis. 



Hah. Mexico, Cuernavaca, Rincon, and Acaguizotla in the Sierra Madre del Sur 

 (H. H. Smith *). 



Described from three males and one female sent us by Mr. H. H. Smith x . Allied 

 to P. nebulosa, having elongated wings and the under surface similarly coloured. 



Phyciodes argentea (I. p. 207). 



To the localities given, add : — Mexico, Atoyac (H. H. Smith, Schumann) ; Guatemala, 

 Solola (Richardson). 



40 (a). Phyciodes cyno. (Tab. CVIII. figg. 27, 28, 6 ; 29, 30, $ .) 



Phyciodes cyno, Godm. & Salv. Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (6) iii. p. 354 (^) (1889) \ 



c? . P. otani similis, sed anticis maculis discalibus majoribus et plaga sericea nulla : subtus anticis (apice 



excepto) fere unicoloribus, lineolis ad basin et costam versus obsoletis vix notatis ; posticis plerumque 



grisescentioribus, maculis omnibus sicut in P. otane, sed magis distinctis. 

 5 . Feminse P. sojpoli similis, sed maculis omnibus albis (nee fulvis), iis ad basin propioribus minutioribus ; 



posticis disco rufo-fulvo suffusis, fascia angulata interiore multo angustiore: subtus grisescentioribus, 



anticis maculis albis ut supra. 



Hab. Mexico, Orizaba (H. J. Elwes l ), Cuesta de Misantla (coll. Schaus). 



Our original description of this species was taken from a single male specimen 

 captured by Mr. Elwes, but we have since seen a pair of it in Mr. Schaus's collection ; 

 our figure of the female is taken from one of the latter.
