2. Josiodes inversa. 
Josiodes inversa, H. Edwards, Papilio, iv. p. 14’. 
Hab. Mxxico, State of Vera Cruz (Schaus)!. 
** Closely allied to the preceding species, and possibly only the other sex” (Edwards). 
PTYCHOGLENE. 
Ptychoglene, Felder, Reise Nov. Lep. iv. t. 106. f. 26, Index, p. 8. 
Dr. Felder founded this genus for the reception of a Mexican insect. Two species 
described by Walker, and placed by him in the genus Lithosia, evidently belong to this 
genus, and have been so placed by Mr. Butler in his paper on the Lithosiide (Trans. 
Ent. Soc. 1877, p. 325). 
1. Ptychoglene erythrophora. 
Ptychoglene erythrophora, Feld. Reise Nov. Lep. iv. t. 106. f. 26, Index, p. 8'; Butl. Trans. Ent. 
Soc. 1877, p. 346. 
Hab. Mexico 1, Ciudad in Durango 8100 feet (Forrer). 
Two examples of this species were sent ; they agree perfectly with Felder’s figure. 
2. Ptychoglene sxqualis. 
Inthosia equalis, Walk. Cat. ii. p. 511°. 
Ptychoglene equalis, Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. 1877, p. 346’. 
Hab. Mzxico, Cordova (Riimelt); Guatemata!?, Cachil, El] Jicaro, San Gerénimo 
(Champion). 
The specimens sent agree well with Walker’s type in the British Museum. 
3. Ptychoglene sanguineola. 
Lithosia sanguineola, Boisd. Lép. Guat. p. 95°. 
Ptychoglene sanguineola, Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. 1877, p. 346°. 
Hab. Mexico! 2, Jalapa (Hége); Guatemaa!, Cachil (Champion). 
This is the largest species in the genus. 
4. Ptychoglene xylophila, sp. n. (Tab. XIII. fig. 1.) 
Primaries bright red, broadly bordered with black from the apex to the inner margin ; secondaries deep black, 
the costal margin streaked with red: head, antenne, thorax, and abdomen deep black; tegule bright 
red; legs and palpi black. Expanse 13 inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Ventanas 2000 feet (Forrer); GuatemaLa, Cahabon, Cubilguitz, San 
Gerénimo (Champion); Nicaragua, Chontales (Belt). 
This species is allied to P. equalis, Walk., from which it can at once be distin- 
guished by the entirely different black margin to the primaries.
