448 HETEROCERA. 
cell, the outer margin from near the apex to the anal angle with a greyish-white border which is waved 
on the inner edge (in S. tebialis it is straight); secondaries brown, but paler in colour than the primaries, 
the outer margin faintly streaked with grey; the fringe of both wings pale brown: head, thorax, abdomen, 
antenne, palpi, and legs pale brown. The female very similar to the male, but considerably paler in colour 
and with the greyish marginal band of the primaries very indistinct. Expanse 13 inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Coatepec (Schaus); Panama, Chiriqui (Rzbbe, in mus. Staudinger). 
Closely allied to S. tibialis, Feld. & Rogenh., but altogether a smaller and paler 
insect. Four examples, three males and one female. 
4. Simplicia (?) lysandria, sp. n. (Tab. XXXVI. figg. 19, 194, 3.) 
Male. Primaries pale purplish-brown, crossed from the costal to the inner margin by two broad dark brown 
bands, and also with two narrow waved dark brown lines ; secondaries uniformly dull brown; the fringe 
of both wings pale brown; the underside pale brown, crossed by darker brown lines, that of the second- 
aries with a submarginal row of small yellowish-brown spots: head, thorax, and abdomen dark purplish- 
brown, the tegule brown ; the palpi large, the third joint tufted with pale yellowish-brown hairs; the 
antennz and legs brown. The female very similar to the male, but with small slender palpi. Expanse, 
3 2,12 inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Coatepec (coll. Schaus); GuatemaLa, Cerro Zunil 4000 to 5000 feet 
(Champion); Panama, Chiriqui (Ridse, in mus. Staudinger), Bugaba 800 to 1500 feet, 
Volcan de Chiriqui 2000 to 4000 feet (Champion). 
Nine examples, one male and eight females. The Mexican specimen in Mr. Schaus’s 
collection is a female; it is paler in colour than any of the others before me. 
5. Simplicia (?) anysis, sp. n. (Tab. XXXVI. figg. 20, 20a, ¢.) 
Male. Primaries and secondaries uniform dusky brown; the primaries crossed from the costal to the inner 
margin by four indistinct waved darker lines, the fourth of which is submarginal and flecked with white 
on the outer side, a marginal row of very minute black dots extending from the apex to the anal angle ; 
the secondaries with the submarginal line very indistinct, and the white dots very minute; the fringe of 
both wings dark brown: head, palpi, antenne, thorax, and legs dusky brown. ‘The female very similar 
to the male, but with simple palpi. Expanse 1,3, inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Teapa in Tabasco (H. H. Smith); Panama, Chiriqui (Ridbe, in mus. 
Staudinger). 
Mr. Herbert Smith captured a male of this species in March 1888, and from this 
our figure is taken. The male and female from Chiriqui in Dr. Staudinger’s collection 
are rather paler in colour, but they agree in other respects with the Mexican 
specimen. 
6. Simplicia (?) mera, sp. nv. (Tab. XXXVI. figg. 22, 22a, ¢; 23, 2.) 
Male, Primaries and secondaries uniform dull brown; the primaries crossed from the costal to the inner 
margin by two darker brown lines—the first straight and close to the base, the second curved outwards 
beyond the middle—and with a submarginal row of minute white dots extending from the costal margin 
close to the apex to the anal angle, and a small white dot at the end of the cell; the secondaries with a 
very indistinct brown line crossing below the middle; both wings with a marginal row of very minute 
black dots, and with the fringe dark brown: head, palpi, thorax, abdomen, and legs dark blackish-brown. 
The female altogether darker in colour, and with the markings very indistinct, Expanse, ¢ 2, 
1i inch .
