110 HETEROCERA. 
8. Pericopis cerialis, sp.n. (Tab. XI. figg. 11, 12.) 
Male. Primaries whitish brown, the apex and a triangular patch near the anal angle, a spot at the end of the 
cell, and a band crossing the middle from the costal margin to the inner margin all brown, the inner 
margin widely banded with brown from the base to near the apex, a bright-red spot at the base, the 
veins all dark brown, and a marginal row of small white spots; secondaries white, broadly bordered with 
black, the veins all black, a submarginal row of bright-red spots from near the apex to the anal angle, 
and a marginal row of small white spots: head black, the front and sides of thorax pale yellow; the 
thorax blackish brown; the abdomen black, banded with greyish blue; the anus and the underside of the 
abdomen yellow; antennee black, with a white spot at the base; palpi black. Expanse 3 23 inches. 
Female. Primaries brownish black, crossed beyond the middle by two bands of yellowish white, the first from 
the costal margin to the anal angle, the second from the costal margin near the apex to the middle of the 
outer margin ; secondaries black, with a submarginal row of large red spots, and a marginal row of white 
dots: head, thorax, and abdomen brownish black; the anus dark yellow, the anal segments of the abdo- 
men speckled with pale-yellow scales, a pale yellow band on each side; the underside black; antennx 
black. Expanse 9 22 inches. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 3000 to 4000 feet (Champion; 2, Ribbe, mus. 
Staudinger). 
This insect is allied to P. leucophea ; but is readily distinguished from that species by 
the white secondaries in the male and the bands across the primaries in the female. 
Mr. Champion did not meet with the female, although he obtained several males of 
this species. ‘The only female example that I have seen is the one in Dr. Staudinger’s 
collection. 
4. Pericopis lycaste. 
Euprepia lycaste, Klug, Neue Schmett. p. 6, t. iv. fig. 4°. 
Pericopis dissimulans, Walk. Cat. xxxi. p. 1557; Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. 1872, p.57; Ann. & Mag. 
Nat. Hist. 4th ser. xvi. p. 166. 
Chetone iscariotes, Bois. Lép. Guat. p. 91°. 
Hab. Mexico, Jalapa (Deppe)!; Guatemata’, Cahabon (Champion); Honpuras?; 
Nicaragua, Chontales (Belt) ; Costa Rica, Irazu (fogers) ; Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 
(Champion).—CoLoMB1A, Bogota ?. 
Klug’s figure appears to have been unknown to Walker, who has not included it in 
his catalogue. I have examined both Walker’s and Boisduval’s types, and have no 
doubt but that they are this species. 
5. Pericopis marginalis. 
Daritis marginalis, Walk. Cat. iii. p. 618°. 
Pericopis marginalis, Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. 1872, p. 57°; Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. 4th ser. xvi. 
p- 166. 
Dorimena magdola, Boisd. Lép. Guat. p. 98 °. 
Hab. Guaremata®; Costa Rica, Irazu (Logers).— VENEZUELA ! 2, 
I think it very doubtful whether this species occurs in Guatemala; the only authority 
for its being found there is Boisduval’s.
