BOCANA. 479 
on the outer margin is entirely obsolete in some examples, shows slightly in others, and 
is very distinct in those figured. The female specimen from Jalapa in Mr. Schaus’s 
collection is the darkest we have seen. 
9, Bocana maia, sp.n. (Tab. XL. figg. 2, 2a, ¢.) 
Male. Primaries and secondaries uniform dark blackish-brown, with a greyish shade round the outer margin ; 
the primaries crossed from the costal to the inner margin by three very narrow dark brown waved lines 
_the first close to the base, the second beyond the cell, the third submarginal—and between the 
first and second of these by a dark brown band; the secondaries crossed about the middle from the 
costal to the inner margin by an indistinct rather wide dark brown band; the fringe of both wings 
dark brown; the underside brown, not quite so dark in colour as the upperside, and without markings of 
any kind: head, antenne, thorax, abdomen, and legs dark brown ; the palpi brown, with the tuft of hair 
pale brown. Expanse 1} inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Teapa in Tabasco (H. H. Smith); Pawama, Chiriqui (Aide, in mus. 
Staudinger). 
We have received three males of this dark-coloured species. Dr. Staudinger’s 
Chiriqui specimen is larger than any of them. A male from Teapa is figured. 
10. Bocana (?) arbona, sp. n. (Tab. XL. fig. 3, 2.) 
Female. Primaries and secondaries dull blackish-brown, slightly irrorated with grey; the primaries crossed 
from the costal to the inner margin by three dark brown waved lines and also with a submarginal greyish 
line, a pale yellowish-brown streak at the end of the cell; the secondaries with a submarginal greyish 
line like that of the primaries ; the marginal line of both wings black with white points, the fringe dark 
blackish-brown ; the underside considerably paler than above, and with the submarginal lines whiter : 
head, thorax, abdomen, antenne, and palpi dark brown, the legs pale brown. Expanse ? inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Teapa in Tabasco (H. H. Smith); Guaremata, Pantaleon 1700 feet 
(Champion); Costa Rica, Volcan de Irazu 6000 to 7000 feet (Rogers). 
The specimens we have received of this insect appear to be all females. ‘Those 
captured at Teapa by Mr. Herbert Smith during the months of January and April, 
1888, do not differ from the Costa Rican examples. Our figure is taken from one of 
the former. 
11. Bocana (2?) marpesia, sp.n. (Tab. XL. fig. 4, 2.) 
Female. Primaries dull brown with a grey tinge, a minute white dot in the middle of the cell and a small 
white line at the end of it, and four dark brown lines crossing the wing from the costal to the inner 
margin, the fourth line broad and edged with paler colour, the marginal line black with pale brown points, 
the fringe brown ; secondaries darker in colour than the primaries, and partly crossed from the anal angle 
and inner margin by darker brown waved lines; the underside uniform dark brown, both wings crossed 
about the middle by a darker brown waved line: head, thorax, abdomen, antenne, palpi, and legs dark 
brown. Expanse 1,4, inch. 
Hab. Guatemata, Zapote (Champion). 
Two specimens, both females. This and the preceding species will most likely 
require to be placed in a different. genus as soon as the males are known.
