9. Pachydia carfinia, sp.n. (Tab. LIII. fig. 25, ¢; 26, 2.) 
Male. Primaries and secondaries pale fawn-colour, irrorated with darker scales ; the primaries with the costal 
margin from the base to near the apex blackish-brown (much more distinctly so in some specimens than 
in others), and with three brown lines crossing from the costal to the inner margin—the first close to the 
base, the second, waved, about the middle, the third very concave, extending from the apex to the inner 
 margin,—a black dot at the end of the cell, and a rather large semicircular greyish-white spot just below 
the apex on the outer margin; the secondaries with a very minute white dol at the end of the cell, 
round which the wing is shaded with fawn-colour; the underside pale greyish-brown, the outer margins 
of both wings broadly bordered with darker brown: head and antenne blackish-brown ; the thorax and 
abdomen pale fawn-colour above, their under surface and the legs yellowish-fawn-colour, the anal tuft 
pale greyish-brown.—Female. Very similar to the male, but generally larger and paler. Expanse, ¢ 13, 
Q 12 inch. 
Hab. Mexico, Presidio (Forrer), Paso de San Juan in Vera Cruz (coll. Schaus) ; 
GuateMata, Panima in Vera Paz, El Tumbador 2500 feet, Las Mercedes 3000 feet,

Chiriqui (TZrétsch, in mus. Staudinger), Volcan de Chiriqui 2000 to 3000 feet

We figure a male from Panima and a female from the Volcan de Atitlan; some of 
the other specimens are darker. 
3. Pachydia casperia, sp.n. (Tab. LIIT. figg. 27, ¢ ; 28, 2.) 
Male. Primaries and secondaries pale fawn-colour, thickly irrorated with brown scales ; the primaries with a 
large yellowish-brown patch on the costal margin near the apex, which is greyish, and with two rather 
wide waved lines crossing from the costal to the inner margin—the first near the base, the second before 
the end of the cell,—a small black spot at the end of the cell, the marginal line with minute black points ; 
the secondaries with a pale yellow spot at the end of the cell; the fringe greyish-fawn-colour ; the under- 
side pale greyish-brown, darker near the apex of the primaries : head, palpi, and antenne blackish-brown, 
the thorax, abdomen, and legs dark fawn-colour.—Vemale. Rather darker in colour, and with all the 
markings greyer. Expanse, ¢ 1,5, 913 inch. 
Hab. Guaremaua, Zapote, Las Mercedes 3000 feet (Champion). 
This species is allied to P. carfinia. We figure a male from Zapote and a female

This is a common species in Guatemala. It varies greatly in size, the specimens 
from the State of Panama being generally larger than those from Mexico or Guatemala. 
5. Pachydia orga, sp.n. (Tab. LIV. figg. 1, 3; 2,2.) 
Male. Primaries and secondaries pale brown ; the primaries crossed from the costal to the inner margin by 
three narrow waved dark brown lines—the third just beyond the cell,—and with a reddish-brown patch
