HETEROCAMPA. 237 
America alone; others have also been described from various parts of the Old and New 
Worlds; in our country Heterocampa is represented by nine species. 
1. Heterocampa edwardsi. 
Heterocampa muscosa, H. Edwards, Papilio, iv. p.79* (nec Moschler). 
Hab. Mexico, State of Vera Cruz (Schaus'). 
“Allied to H. guttivitta, but of a much greener tint, and also distinguished by the 
strongly marked white patches.” The specific name having been previously used by 
Moschler for another species of the same genus, a new name is required. 
2. Heterocampa dardania, sp.n. (Tab. XXV. fig. 4, 2.) 
Male. Primaries pale greyish-brown, the nerves darker brown, with a narrow zigzag line crossing close to the 
base from the costal margin to the inner margin, a dark line at the end of the cell extending to the costal 
margin, and a submarginal row of elongate blackish spots extending from the apex to the inner margin 
near the anal angle, the fringe alternately dark brown and pale greyish; secondaries white, broadly 
bordered along the costal margin with greyish-brown, and with a narrow marginal brown line from the 
apex to the anal angle; the underside of both wings whitish, dusky along the costal margins of the 
primaries: head and thorax above greyish-brown, beneath brown; abdomen above greyish-brown, beneath 
greyish-white, the anus bright fawn-colour; legs and antenne brown, the palpi almost black. The female 
similar to the male, but larger, and with the markings near the base of the primaries much more distinct. 
Expanse, d, 1,4 inch; 92, 1;% inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Jalapa (Hége). 
Two examples, one of each sex. 
3. Heterocampa sylla, sp.n. (Tab. XXV. fig. 5, ¢.) 
Primaries reddish-brown, shaded with darker brown, and thickly irrorated with minute black dots, with a 
large greyish spot on the inner margin close to the anal angle and a narrow submarginal-waved yellowish 
line extending from the apex to the hind margin; secondaries pale blackish-brown, palest at the base, a 
white spot on the costal margin close to the apex; the underside of both wings whitish, shaded with 
brown: head, thorax, and abdomen yellowish-brown; antennz, palpi, and legs brown. Expanse 
14 inch. 
Hab. Panama, Caldera in Chiriqui 1200 feet (Champion). 
One specimen. A very pretty and distinct species. 
4, Heterocampa manethusa, sp.n. (Tab. XXV. fig. 6, 2.) 
Primaries from the base to about the middle reddish-brown and speckled with greenish-grey scales, from the 
middle to the apex and almost to the outer margin white, the outer margin broadly greenish from the 
anal angle almost to the apex (but not reaching it) and with four very minute white dots on the extreme 
edge; secondaries greyish-white, irrorated with dusky scales near the apex; the underside of both wings 
white, the primaries broadly shaded with brown along the costal margin: head and thorax greenish- 
yellow, speckled with darker scales; abdomen above dark brown, with three small tufts of yellowish 
scales down the middle, beneath and the anus greyish; antenne and palpi brown; legs pale yellowish- 
brown. Expanse 2 inches. 
Hab. Costa Rica, Irazu 6000 to 7000 feet (Rogers). 
One specimen. ‘This fine species has no near known ally.
