BENDIS.—OPHISMA. 379

OPHISMA. 
Ophisma, Guénée, Sp. gén. des Lép. vii. p. 286 (1852) ; Walker, Cat. xiv. p. 1367. 
This genus has its head-quarters in the tropical regions of the Old World; it is 
represented in Central America by five species. 
1. Ophisma tropicalis. 
Ophisma tropicalis, Guén. Sp. gén. des Lép. vii. p. 2838*; Walk. Cat. xiv. p. 1868°; Moschl. Verh. 
zool.-bot. Ges. Wien, 1880, p. 480°; Beitr. zur Schmett.-Fauna von Surinam, iii. p. 52. 
Hab. Panama, Chiriqui (Arcé, in mus. D.).—Cotompra!?; Gurana, Surinam 3; 
Braziu!2; Cusal 2. 
The only specimens we have received from Central America are those captured by 
Arcé in Chiriqui. 0. tropicalis is a well-marked species easily distinguished from 
O. lutetplaga and OU. detrahens, Walk., by the two distinct bands on the primaries. 
2. Ophisma detrahens. 
Ophisma detrahens, Walk. Cat. xiv. p. 1368 °. 
Hab. Panama, Panama Bay (J. J. Walker).— West coast or AMERICA!; ANTILLES, San 
Domingo}. 
A specimen captured by Mr. J. J. Walker in the Bay of Panama agrees perfectly 
with the example in the National Collection received from Captain Kellett from the 
‘“‘ west coast of America.” 
8. Ophisma luteiplaga. 
Ophisma luteiplaga, Walk. Cat. xiv. p. 1869". 
Hab. Mexico, Jalapa (Hége); Panama, Chiriqui (Arcé, in mus. D.).—CoLoMBiA, 
Bogota !; Brazit, Rio Janeiro!; West coast OF AMERICA}. 
This species is exceedingly close to and perhaps not really distinct from O. detrahens. 
4, Ophisma delunaris. 
Ophisma delunaris, Guén. Sp. gén. des Lép. vii. p. 238°; Walk. Cat. xiv. p. 1370.
