348 HETEROCERA. 
_ We are indebted to Dr. Staudinger for kindly sending his Chiriqui specimen for our 
inspection ; the species is quite distinct from any other known to us. 
LEPIDODES. 
Lepidodes, Guénée, Sp. gén. des Lép. vii. p. 27 (1852) ; Walker, Cat. xiii. p. 1085. 
It is very doubtful if this genus should be located in the Hypogrammine; but for 
the sake of convenience I provisionally place it here, following the arrangement of 
Guénée and Walker. A single species from Colombia was included in it by Guénée ; 
this extends northwards:into Central America, whence a second species is now added. 
1. Lepidodes limbulata. 
Lepidodes limbulata, Guén. Sp. gén. des Lép. vil. p. 28, Noct. t, 18. f.9'; Walk. Cat. xiii. p. 1086’. 
Becula gallopavo, Walk. Cat. ix. p. 148°. 
Lepidodes cornifrons, Feld. & Rogenh. Reise der Novara, Lep. t. 112. f. 11, Erkl. der Taf. 112. 
no. 11%. 
Hab. Mexico, Jalapa (Schaus), Valladolid in Yucatan (Gaumer); Panama, Chiriqui 
(Ribbe, in mus. Staudinger).—Co.tomBia ! 2; VENEZUELA 3 4. 
One specimen only of this species has been received by us from within the limits of 
our fauna. 
2. Lepidodes (?) enyra, sp.n. (Tab. XXXI. fig. 6.) 
Primaries pinkish-brown, thickly irrorated with darker brown scales, with several minute black streaks near 
the inner margin and an indistinct brown mark near the anal angle; secondaries uniformly pale blackish- 
brown, becoming whitish at the base; the fringe of both wings pale brown; the underside pale brown, 
the primaries darker than the secondaries: head, thorax, abdomen, antenna, palpi, and legs pale pinkish- 
brown. Expanse 13 inch. 
Hab. Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui 3000 feet (Champion). 
One specimen only of this species was captured by Mr. Champion. 
PHOSPHILA. 
Phosphila, Hiibner, Verz. bek. Schmett. p. 208 (1816). 
Hiibner included two species in this genus, one of these being from North and 
the other from South America; both were doubtfully included in Amphipyra by 
Walker. A third species, from the Amazons, has subsequently been referred to it by 
Butler; this is known to me from as far north as Guatemala, and a fourth is now 
added from the State of Panama. 
1. Phosphila tatosoma. 
Phosphila (?) tatosoma, Butl. Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1879, p. 42°. 
Hab. Guatemata, Volcan de Atitlan 2500 to 3500 feet, Zapote (Champion); Panama, 
‘Chiriqui (47be).—Amazons, Mauhes River !.
