colored, with about twelve black lines on the fore wings, and about the same 

 number on the hind wings. The lines are black, very oblique, becoming 

 scalloped toward the outer edge, beyond the distinct discal dot; the third line 

 beyond the discal dot is double, with long, regular scallops; the two next 

 lines are near together, and close to the submarginal, zigzag, white line ; 

 opposite each point of the white scallop is a marginal black dot, adjacent to 

 the marginal, black, interrupted line ; fringe pale, checkered with brown. 

 Hind wings marked like the anterior pair, with the edge well scalloped; 

 beneath, the wings are paler and clearer, with the black discal dots larger and 

 very distinct, with faint traces of the extradiscal lines.

 but little beyond the head, and with the third joint sharp, minute, partly con-

 wings large and broad, but not so much larger than the hind wings as in Phi-

 in Philereme, and not scalloped. Hind wings much longer and larger, with 

 the apex not produced, much more rounded than usual; outer edge full and
