very common, and found throughout Tropical America.

This species appears to be very common in Guatemala and Costa Rica, but from the 
State of Panama I have only seen two examples; it also occurs sparingly in Colombia 
and Venezuela. It varies considerably in colour and size: some specimens are dark 
bluish black, others are shaded with green, and others almost dull black. 
LITHOSIA. 
Lithosia, Fabricius, Ent. Syst. Suppl. p. 419 (1798). 
This genus is very widely distributed over the globe, a large number of species 
having been described. In our country it is represented by about five species.
