84 HETEROCERA. 
2. Theages leucophza. (Tab. IX. fig. 9.) 
Theages leucophea, Walk. Cat. iii. p. 722*; Butl. Journ. Linn. Soc., Zool. xii. p. 480. 
Hab. Guatemaua, San Gerénimo (Champion); Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (Ridée, 
mus. Staudinger).—Ecuavor (Buckley, mus. D.); S.E. Braz}. 
The specimen from Panama agrees well with those from Brazil. The Guatemala 
example is figured ; it is rather more highly coloured than the other specimens. 
EKUCEREON. 
Eucereon, Hubner, Verz. bek. Schmett. p. 123. 
This genus, containing a considerable number of species, is well represented in our 
country by about twenty-two, ten of which are new and now described. The species can 
be divided into three groups :—(1) those with yellow on the abdomen, (2) those with red 
abdomen, and (3) those with the abdomen brown, with the apex yellow. 
1. Eucereon varium. 
Euchromia varia, Walk. Cat. i. p. 266"; Butl. Lep. Het. t. 9. f. 5; Trans. Ent. Soc. 1878, p. 48. 
Hab. Panama, Chiriqui (Arcé, mus. D., Ribbe, mus. Staudinger)—CoLomBia; AMAZONS, 
Para }, 
The ground-colour of the primaries in the Chiriqui examples is rather paler than in 
the type, but in other respects they appear to belong to the same species. I havea 
specimen before me from Bogota that is rather darker in colour than those from Chiriqui, 
but not so dark as those from Para. 
2. Kucereon abdominale. 
Carales abdominalis, Walk. Cat. iii. p. 731°. 
Hab. Guatemata, Volcan de Atitlan 2500 to 3500 feet (Champion).— VENEZUELA}, 
A single example of this insect was obtained ; it agrees fairly well with the type in 
the British Museum. 
3. Eucereon myrina, sp.n. (Tab. IX. fig. 10.) 
Primaries semitransparent, white, with a number of black spots (encircled with yellowish white) close to the 
base, a cluster of black spots round the end of the cell, a marginal and submarginal row of spots extending 
from the costal to the inner margin, black, bordered with yellow, the fringe silky white; secondaries semi- 
transparent, greyish white, the outer margin narrowly bordered with black, the fringe silky white: head 
and thorax dark grey, spotted with black, the collar yellow; abdomen yellow, with a band of black spots 
on either side, and one down the centre; on the underside the primaries and secondaries are tinted with 
yellow close to the base. Expanse 12 inch. 
Hab. GuatEmALa, San Gerénimo (Champion). 
Of this. very distinct and pretty species Mr. Champion only obtained a single 
example.
