Hab. AMERICA, C-S. Central America—Costa Rica: Orosi (C. Picado). South 
America *°—Dvutcu Guiana! ; Paramaribo !*—Frencu Guiana: St. Jean, Rio Maroni 
(W. Schaus, 6149, Drnt. Det. 1908, US. Nat. Mus.). 
The specimen from St. Jean, Rio Maroni, is a ¢ with palpi oblique, closely 
appressed to the face, not reaching above the crown of the head; FW: 8-9 stalked, to 
costa, rest separate; HW: 8 veins, all separate—this species may now be referred to 
the group Neolophus W1sm.—Drnt. 
10. Acrolophus euporia, sp.n. (Tab. X. fig. 29.) 
Antennae yellowish white. Pulpit closely appressed to the face; white, a brownish fuscous patch on the 
outer side below the eye. Head and Thorax white; the latter strongly crested above with brownish 
fuscous and ochreous scales. Forewings white, mottled with pale olive-grey, alternating with bright 
yellow ochreous speckling and a few black scales; along the costa the bright yellow-ochreous somewhat 
prevails, but immediately below it and over the greater portion of the outer two-thirds, as far as the 
lower edge of the cell, it becomes mixed, in almost even proportions, with olive-grey mottling which 
only appears unmixed with ochreous on a rather broad white space preceding the termen; along the 
dorsum the olive-grey shade is somewhat darker, but does not extend to the tornus—some ochreous 
scales are mixed with it, and these prevail in two rounded excrescences overlapping the fold, with some 
black scales around their margins, the outer one of these is at about the middle of the dorsum ; there 
are also a few black scales at the end of the cell, and again in three broken lines through the apical and 
terminal cilia, which are otherwise bright, shining, golden ochreous ; tornal cilia white. Exp. al. 25 mm. 
Hindwings dark purplish fuscous ; cilia yellowish white, a fuscous shade-line running through them 
near their base. Abdomen greyish fuscous above, white beneath. Legs white, the tarsi banded with 
brownish ochreous. 
Type 3S (6001, Wlsm. Det. 1908) US. Nat. Mus, [PT7. (84005) Mus. Wlsm. BM. ] 
Hab. Mexico: GueRRERO: Iguala, 2400 ft., VI. 1906 (W. Schaus). Two specimens. 
A beautiful and conspicuously distinct species, with FW: 8-9 stalked, belonging to 
the group Neolophus. 
11. Acrolophus superstes, sp. n. (Tab. X. fig. 30.) 
Antennae pale fawn. Head and Palpi pale fawn. Thorax pale fawn, sprinkled with pale brownish fuscous. 
Forewings very pale fawn, almost fawn-whitish, much streaked and mottled with lighter and darker 
shades of brownish fuscous; the costa is narrowly tinged throughout with pale fawn-ochreous, but 
exhibits a series of fuscous costal spots, not touching the margin, those toward the base are very small, 
but from the middle to the apex are four larger ones, of which the outer three point very obliquely 
inward and form part of a series of shorter radiating marginal streaks, in which four at and below the 
apex are smaller than the others below them along the termen, each pair in their turn throwing a dark 
shade through the otherwise pale fawn cilia—to the number of about seven, including one at the apex 
and one at the tornus; from the base of the costa a dark fuscous streak, more or less mottled with paler
