‘66 HETEROCERA. 
by Mr. Bates from San Paulo. It is allied to Trichura, from which it principally differs 
in the neuration of the primaries. 
1. Syntrichura placida, sp. n. (Tab. VII. fig. 8.) 
Primaries and secondaries yellowish hyaline, with the veins black; margins very narrow black: head, thorax, 
and abdomen black, not glossy as in S. virens; collar red; antenn black, the tips pale yellow; the base 
of the abdomen yellow. Expanse ? inch. 
Hab. Guatemata, Tamahu (Champion). 
Only a single example of this species was obtained by Mr. Champion. It is close 
to S. virens, Butler ; but it differs in several well-marked characters.

1. Napata leucotelus. (Tab. VII. fig. 24.) 
Napata leucotelus, Butler, Journ. Linn. Soc., Zool. xii. p. 409°. 
Euchromia (Napata) terminalis, var., Walker, Cat. i. p. 231°. 
Hab. Mexico, Presidio (Forrer), Jalapa (Hoge), Valladolid in Yucatan (Gauwmer) ; 
GuaTeMALa, San Gerénimo, Panzos, Panima, Teleman (Champion); Honpuras !2.— 
Costa Rica, Irazu (Rogers).— VENEZUELA 12; Brazi?. 
This species is very distinct from WN. terminalis, Walker. 
2. Napata guatemalena, sp. n. 
Primaries and secondaries uniform brownish black, the fringe white at the apex and anal angle of the prima- 
ries, also on the outer margin of secondaries: the front of head, thorax, and the base of the primaries 
bright metallic green; the head bright red; palpi red, with black tips; antenne black, slightly pecti- 
nated; abdomen black, with several indistinct green lines; legs black. Expanse 1 inch. 
Hab. Guaremata, Tamahu, San Gerdnimo (Champion). 
This species is easily distinguished from the two others described by the bright red 
head and dark brownish-black wings. 
PROCALYPTA. 
Procalypta, Butler, Journ. Linn. Soc., Zool. xii. p. 411. 
This genus was founded by Mr. Butler for the reception of a species that Walker 
had placed in the genus Euchromia: it is a very distinct-looking insect. The type in 
the British Museum is without anyabdomen. I am inclined to think Procalypta should 
be placed near the genus Charidea; but not possessing any specimens of Walker’s 
species, and only three of the one now described, I am rather uncertain upon this point, 
not being able to dissect the specimens.
