the terminal joint. Head and Thoraw greyish fuscous. Forewings greyish fuscous at the base, becoming 
yellowish brown about the middle and at the apex, with a greyish fuscous shade between; at one-fourth 
is an oblique, triangular, whitish patch, not attaining the costa, and on the central portion of the wing 
are four lilac-metallic streaks, two costal and two dorsal—the first of the former shorter than the others, 
the apex of the second terminating between the upper extremities of the two latter; the second dorsal 
streak forms the inner margin of a black tornal patch, which is sprinkled with brownish ochreous scales 
followed by two metallic dots; before the apex is a lilac-metuallic line, from the costa to the sub-apical 
incision, followed by an oblique, short, white costal streak before the apex—this and a white spot at the 
incision are conspicuous on the underside; cilia pale greyish. Hep. al. 14 mm. Hindwings dark 
brownish fuscous, with a small pale spot about the middle of the dorsum; cilia paler. Addomen fuscous, 
anal tuft inclining to ochreous. Legs greyish fuscous, the tibiae and tarsi banded with whitish.

Two specimens. | 
Very similar to deltodes Wlsm., but distinguished by the remarkable ornamentation 
of the palpi, and also by its larger size. 
4. Glyphipteryx deltodes, sp. n. 
Antennae pale greyish fuscous. Palpi smooth, projecting slightly beyond the head; externally pale greyish 
fuscous, internally whitish cinereous. Head greyish fuscous; face cinereous. Thorax greyish fuscous. 
Forewings greyish fuscous, with a conspicuous triangular white dorsal patch at about one-fourth, its 
apex not attaining the costa; beyond it the median portion of the wing consists of yellowish ochreous 
blotches, on which three steel-blue metallic streaks encroach, two costal and one dorsal, the apex of the 
latter terminating on the cell between the lower extremities of the two former; about the tornus is a 
large black patch, profusely sprinkled with whitish ochreous scales in longitudinal lines, crossed trans- 
versely by four or five small metallic spots before the apex; a slender, lilac-metallic line, from the costa 
to the subapical incision, is followed by an ochreous band and an oblique white apical streak ; cilia 
greyish fuscous at their base, paler outwardly; on the underside the white apical streak points to a 
small white spot at the incision. Ewp.al.9mm. Hindwings greyish fuscous; cilia paler. Abdomen 
greyish fuscous. Legs.greyish fuscous, banded on tibiae and tarsi with white; spurs white. 
Type 3 (66642) Mus. Wlsm. (Godm-Salv, Coll.) BM. [| PT. (66644) US. Nat. Mus.] 
Hab. Mexico: tapasco: Teapa, III. (H. H. Smith). Three specimens. 
5. Glyphipteryx actinota, sp. n. (Tab. IX. fig. 11.) 
Antennae pate bronzy. Palpi smooth; silvery. Head and Thorax bronzy. Forewings bronzy, minutely 
- gtriate longitudinally, to about half their length, with pale shining brassy yellow, these striae reappearing 
in the purplish bronzy outer half of the wing in a costal patch at two-thirds, and in a patch adjaceut to 
the middle of the termen ; the upper patch is margined before and behind by transverse brassy streaks, 
preceded and followed by dark purplish fuscous; there are two short brassy costal streaks before the 
apex, separated by dark purplish fuscous, this colour extending to a little before the middle of the 
dorsum; cilia dark bronzy, some dirty whitish scales at the apex. Eep.al.8 mm. Hindwings and 
cilia dark fuscous. Abdomen dark fuscous. Legs dark bronzy fuscous, with white annulations.
