ACREAGRIS.—METRIOPHYLA. 73 
ACREAGRIS. 
Acreagris, Felder, Reise Nov. Lep. iv. t. 83. f. 2, Index, p. 1. 
This genus appears to me to be closely allied to Charidea. 
1. Acreagris correbioides. 
Acreagris correbioides, Feld. Reise Nov. Lep. iv. t. 83. f. 2°. 
Hab. Mexico (Bilimek) 1. 
I have not seen a specimen of this species. 
2. Acreagris togata, sp.n. (Tab. VI. fig. 8.) 
Male. Primaries deep brick-red, the costal, outer, and inner margins narrowly bordered with black, the apices 
and fringe white; secondaries black, slightly glossed with very dark blue, the fringe at the apex white; 
antenne, palpi, legs, and thorax black: head and abdomen dark glossy blue; the antenne are rather 
deeply pectinated in the male, but quite simple in the female. Expanse, ¢ 1} inch, 9 12 inch. 
Hab. Guatemaa, San Gerdénimo, Duefias, Panajachel 5000 feet (Champion); Costa 
Rica, Rio Sucio, Irazu 6000 to 7000 feet (Rogers); Panama, Bugaba (Champion). 
The figure is taken from a female Guatemalan example; at the time the Plate was 
drawn I had not received a male. 
METRIOPHYLA. 
Metriophyla, Butler, Ill. Lep. Het. 1. p. 43. 
This genus is nearly allied to Heliura, but I think quite distinct. 
1. Metriophyla apicalis. 
Charidea apicalis, Herr.-Schaff. Samml. aussereur. Schmett. i. f. 236. 
Heliura apicalis, Butl. Journ. Linn. Soc., Zool. xii. p. 417. 
Histioca apicalis, Walk. Cat. vii. p. 1624. 
Metriophyla apicalis, Butl. Il. Lep. Het. i. p. 43, t. 8. f. 7. 
Euchromia albiplaga, Walk. Cat. i. p. 218. 
Hab. Guatemata, San Gerénimo (Champion); Nicaraaua, Chontales (Belt); Panama, 
Volcan de Chiriqui (Arcé, mus. D.), Bugaba (Champion).—VENEZUELA; BRAZIL. 
The examples from Guatemala are not so bright in colour on the upperside as those 
from more southern countries, but in other respects they agree. 
2. Metriophyla alpha, sp.n. (Heliwra alpha, Tab. VIII. fig. 24.) 
Primaries greenish black, slightly metallic green at the base, the apices white; secondaries dark bluish black, 
the base shot with metallic green, the fringe and outer margin edged with white; antenne black: head, 
thorax, and abdomen bright blue-green. Expanse 1} inch. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (Champion). 
I have only received a single example of this beautiful little species. It is allied to 
M., apicalis, from which it differs in its much narrower primaries, in the absence of the 
blue marks on the upperside, and also in its smaller size.
