GALAPHA. 
Galapha, Walker, Cat. xv. p. 1544 (1858). 
One species from the Amazons was included in Galapha by Walker ; we now add a 
second from Central America. The genus is allied to Tautobriga. 
1. Galapha ageta, sp.n. (Tab. X XXIII. fig. 8, 3.) 
Male. Primaries and secondaries dark brown, with a greyish shade over them; the primaries with a large oval 
spot at the end of the cell edged with white at the lower end, a rather wide darker brown band crossing 
about the middle from the lower side of the spot to the inner margin, a dark brown spot and a similarly- 
coloured mark closé-to the apex, and several minute pale coloured streaks along the costal margin; the 
secondaries with a dark brown line near the anal angle edged with white close to the anal angle, and with 
a marginal row of small white dots; the fringe of both wings dark brown; the underside pale brown, 
yellowish at the apex and along the costal margin of the primaries, the spot at the end of the cell 
yellowish-white: head, palpi, antenne, thorax, abdomen, and legs greyish-brown. The female resembling 
the male, but very much darker in colour. Expanse 1? inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Dos Arroyos in Guerrero (H. H. Smith) ; GUATEMALA, Volcan de 
Atitlan 2500 to 3500 feet (Champion); Honpuras, Ruatan I. (Gawmer); Costa Rica, 
Volean de Irazu 6000 to 7000 feet (Rogers); Panama, Chiriqui (Ridbe, in mus. 
Staudinger). | 
Allied to Focilla bendina, Feld. & Rogenh., but differing very considerably in colour 
and markings. It varies to some extent in the size and colour of the spot at the end 
of the cell of the primaries: in some specimens this is almost white, in others it is 
reddish-brown. The examples from Ruatan Island are the palest; in the single 
specimen from Chiriqui the spot on the primaries is larger than in any of the others 
before us. Mr. Smith’s examples were captured in September 1888. A male example | 
from Dos Arroyos is figured. 
Fam. AMPHIGONIIDA.
