216 HETEROCERA. 
extending from near the apex to the anal angle, the marginal line dark brown, the fringe pure white ; 
the secondaries crossed about the middle by a dark greyish-brown line, which is widest on the inner 
margin, above which a fine dark brown line extends partly across the wing to the base, two fine sub- 
marginal waved brown lines extending from near the apex to the anal angle, the marginal line dark 
brown, the fringe white; the underside of both wings white, with all the markings very faint : head, 
collar, front of thorax, and legs white; the antenne dark brown; the abdomen with the base and part 
of the upperside dark greyish-brown, the three anal segments and the underside white.—Female. Very 
similar to the male, but considerably larger and with the abdomen more marked with white. Expanse 
5 2, 2 24 inches. . 
Hab. Mexico, Jalapa (M. Trujillo), Coatepec (Schaus), Cuernavaca in Morelos, La 
Venta in Guerrero (H. H. Smith); Guatamata, Las Mercedes (Champion). 
‘This species is apparently rare, though widely distributed in Mexico. Mr. Schaus 
captured only one specimen, which is very much paler than any of the others before 
me. WM. praswiteles is allied to M. grandalis, Guen., but very different in the colour 
and markings. We figure a male from Cuernavaca, and a female from La Venta. 
PALIGA. 
Paliga, Moore, Lep. Ceylon, iii. p. 350 (1886). 
1. Paliga inclusalis. 
Scopula (?) inclusalis, Walk. Cat. xxxiv. p. 1464’. 
Hab. Mexico, Teapa in Tabasco (H. H. Smith); Honpuras, Limas}. 
One specimen from Teapa, very similar to Walker's type in the National Museum. 
EURYCREON.

1. Eurycreon fuscocilialis.

Hab. British Honpuras, Corosal (Roe, in mus. D.); Costa Rica, Candelaria Mts. 
(Underwood) ; Panama, Volcan de Chiriqui (¢ mus. Staudinger *). 
Of this species we have a fairly good series, showing a considerable amount of 
variation in colour and in the distinctness of the markings. One of the specimens in 
Dr. Staudinger’s collection is very dark. 
NOMOPHILA.
