PHALOK (I. p. 107). 
Phaloé gaumeri (I. p. 107). 
To the locality given, add:—Mexico, Jalapa (M. Trujillo), Misantla (F. D. G.); 
British Honpvuras, Belize (Sir Alfred Moloney, in mus. D.). 
It is possible that this insect may prove to be inseparable from Pericopis cubana, 
Herr.-Schaff. (=Spheromachia cubana, Grote). 
Phaloé verania (I. p. 107). 
To the locality given, add :—Mexico, Cuesta de Misantla (M/. Trujillo) ; Honpuras, 
San Pedro Sula ( Wittkugel, in mus. D.). 
Phaloe trotschi (I. p. 108). 
We have received two more specimens, one of each sex, from the original locality. 
The male is very similar to the female, the description having been taken from an 
example of the latter. 
Phaloe cerealia. (Tab. LXXVI. fig. 7, 3.) 
To the locality given, add:—Mzexico, Cuesta de Misantla (Schaus). 
We now figure the male of this species from Mr. Schaus’s collection. It differs from 
the female in its smaller size and brighter colour. 
PERICOPIS (I. p. 109). 
2(a). Pericopis cotta, sp.n. (Tab. LX XVI. fig. 9, ¢.) 
Male. Primaries pale brown, crossed from the costal margin by two yellowish hyaline bands, neither of which 
reaches the inner or outer margin, the first band placed at the end of the cell and the second nearer the 
apex, and with a small red spot at the base on the costal margin; secondaries yellowish hyaline, broadly 
bordered with black on the costal, outer, and inner margins, the inner margin and the anal angle shot 
with glossy blue; the underside of the primaries as above, but with the costal margin red at the base, 
that of the secondaries without the blue gloss and with the costal and inner margins streaked with white ; 
the fringe of both wings black: head, antenne, palpi, tegule, thorax, and legs black, the collar red ; 
abdomen glossy blue-black, each segment very narrowly edged with white, the underside dark brown, 
banded with white. Expanse 2 inches. 
Hab. Panama, Chiriqui (Zrétsch, in mus. Staudinger). 
Pericopis lycaste (I. p. 110). 
To the localities given, add :—Mexico, Atoyac in Vera Cruz (H. H. Smith), Orizaba 
(Boucard, in mus. D.); British Honpuras, Belize (Sir Alfred Moloney, in mus. D.); 
Costa Rica, Santa Clara Valley 1200 feet (Zurcher). 
In Mr. Schaus’s collection there are three males from Jalapa which probably belong 
to this species. They differ from all other males I have seen in having the secondaries 
orange, instead of whitish, resembling the females in this respect.
