210 HETEROCERA. 
Guatemala, without any more exact locality; it agrees well with Walker’s type in the 
British Museum. 
EURYDA. 
Euryda, Herrich-Schaffer, Samml. aussereur. Schmett. p. 58, t. 38. £. 182 (1854); Walker, Cat. vii. 
p. 1746. 
The female sex only of this genus was known to Herrich-Schiiffer; the male is a 
very different-looking insect. 
Euryda contains a single species which is widely distributed in Tropical America. 
1. Euryda variolaris. 
Euryda variolaris, Herr.-Schaff. 1. c. p. 58, t. 88. f. 182"; Walk. 1. c. p. 1746 ?. 
Hab. Guatemaia, Las Mercedes 3000 feet (Champion); Panama, Bugaba 800 to 1500 
feet (Champion).—CotomB1a!; Braz 2. 
Specimens from Rio Janeiro in my own collection are identical with those from our 
country. It is not unlikely that the insect figured by Cramer, Pap. Exot. ii. t. 185. 
f. D, under the name of Phalena hipparchia, may be intended for this species ; but the 
figure is so bad and unlike the specimens before me that I think it better to use 
Herrich-Schiiffer’s name. 
ALPIS. 
Alpis, Walker, Cat. v. p. 1094. 
Walker included in this genus two species, A. defoliata, from Mexico, and A. xan- 
thopasa (Sepp), from South America; the same author (J. ¢. xxv. p- 1935) subsequently 
adding a third species, A. contigua, from Colombia. A. xanthopasa, judging from the 
figure, cannot in my opinion be retained in the same genus. 
I have to record four species of Alpis from our region. 
1. Alpis defoliata. 
Alpis defoliata, Walk. Cat. v. p. 10947. 
Hab. Murxico }. 
The only specimens I have seen of this insect are the types in the British Museum. 
2. Alpis contigua. 
Alpis contigua, Walk. Cat. xxxv. p. 19357. 
Hab. Guatemaa (Boucard, in mus. D.).—Cotomsta, Bogota 1. 
An example of this species was brought home by Boucard from Guatemala; it agrees 
well with Walker’s type, which is now in my own collection. 
3. Alpis alydda, sp.n. (Tab. XXII. fig. 13.) 
Male, Primaries dark sericeous-brown, with the outer margin, from the apex to the anal angle, broadly banded 
with pale fawn-colour, a series of silvery-white spots (which have black dots on the side nearest the base)
