margin, and some minute black dots close to the apex, the fringe dark brown ; secondaries blackish-brown, 
palest near the base and along the inner margin, the fringe dark and light brown: head, thorax, and 
abdomen dark brown, the anal segments blackish, the antenne and legs dark brown. Expanse 1} inch. 
Hab. Guatemata, Volean de Atitlan 2500 to 3500 feet (Champion) ; Panama, Volcan 
de Chiriqui 2000 to 3000 feet (Champion).—Cotomptia, Bogota. 
Allied to I. abrostoloides, from which it may be readily distinguished by the primaries 
having the costal margin dark brown and being without a pale spot near the base. 
I. murina, as already stated, closely resembles Orthoclostera peculiaris, Butl. A 
Guatemalan example is figured. 
Subfam. PLUSIINA. 
ABROSTOLA. 
Abrostola, Ochsenheimer, Schmett. Europ. iv. p. 88 (1816) ; Guénée, Sp. gén. des Lép. vi. p. 320; 
Walker, Cat. xii. p. 880. 
The species of this genus are widely distributed over the globe; two only are known 
to us from Central America. 
1. Abrostola tinctoides. 
Abrostola tinctoides, Guén. Sp. gén. des Lép. vi. p. 323°; Walk. Cat. xii. p. 8837. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (ibbe, in mus. Staudinger ).—Braziu } 2. 
This insect is only known to me by a specimen so named by Dr. Staudinger. 
2. Abrostola adrana, sp. n. (Tab. XXX. fig. 9.) 
Primaries dark brown, with a large pale yellowish-brown patch on the inner margin extending from near the 
base to the anal angle, this patch edged on the inner side by a darker brown line which extends along 
the outer margin to the apex, the discal spot yellowish-brown, the fringe dark brown; secondaries 
blackish, the fringe white on the outer margin near the anal angle: head, thorax, and abdomen dark 
brown, the last three segments of the latter, the underside of the thorax, and the legs yellowish-brown, 
the antenne dark brown. Expanse 13 inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Valladolid in Yucatan (Gaumer). 
CALYPTIS. 
Calyptis, Guénée, Sp. gén. des Lép. vi. p. 323 (1852) ; Walker, Cat. xii. pp. 884 & 940. 
Guénée founded this genus upon a single species, the exact locality for which was 
not known, though he supposed it to be from North America; this insect is known to 
me from Central and South America, but not from north of the State of Panama. 
I follow Felder in including Phalena Noctua idonea, Cram. [= Plusia (1) semicuprea, 
Walk.|, in Calyptis. Butler refers Walker’s species to Basilodes.
