medial dentate line outbent from costa, slightly inbent below vein 5; a tew black 

 irrorations subterminally; a terminal black line interrupted by veins; cilia 

 ochreous green. Hind wings light drab; a dark terminal line; a faint postmedial 

 whitish line; cilia whitish buff with a drab line near base. Wings below tinged 

 with vinaceous, the costal margins whitish buff with dark irrorations; a distinct 

 postmedial line on both wings. 

 Expanse, 36 mm. 



Habitat. Volcan Sta. Maria, Guatemala. 



Type Cat. No. 25664, U. S. N. M. 



Veins 7 and 8 on hind wing anostomose very shortly and in a 

 male they do not anostomose so the species could as well be 

 placed in Stericta but the general maculation agrees better with 

 several species of Jocara; it is nearest J. translinea Schaus. 



Jocara abachuma, new species. 



Male. Palpi and antennal process yellow green, the process with lateral 

 black irrorations. Collar and thorax white thickly mottled with yellow green. 

 Abdomen above whitish buff with dark irrorations on terminal segments, 

 probably light green when fresh. Fore wings citrine, the medial space to post- 

 medial suffused with light vinaceous fawn; costal edge black on basal third; 

 a black basal point below submedian; subbasal black points above subcostal and 

 on median; antemedial indicated by a small brown spot on costa, a black spot 

 below cell overspread with broad white and fuscous scales, and some black scales 

 below submedian; black scaling along inner margin; traces of a medial line on 

 costa and from cell to inner margin, twice lunular; a fine curved black line on 

 discocellular; postmedial faintly indicated by some black scales outangled on 

 vein 5, then incurved to submedian; an outer well marked dentate black line, 

 outcurved beyond cell; a few black irrorations subterminally; terminal black 

 spots on interspaces; cilia green at base tipped with whitish gray. Hind wings 

 white; termen from apex to vein 2 grayish brown; a fine terminal fuscous line; 

 subterminal dark streaks on veins. Fore wings below white, the apical area 

 suffused with fuscous; orange vinaceous scaling above vein 7 from end of cell; 

 costa white with a few dark irrorations. Hind wings below white, the costa 

 with dark irrorations; a fuscous spot at upper angle of cell and a fine terminal 

 line. 



Expanse, 26 mm. 



Habitat. Castro, Parana.

Very near J. chlorisalis Schaus, the female of which has fus- 

 cous hind wings, whereas the female of this species has the hind 

 wings as in the male. 



Jocara conrana, new species. 



Male. Body and fore wings evidently turtle green when fresh. Antennae 

 thickly fringed with long cilia; the antennal process long and hairy. Collar 

 dorsally mottled with broad black and white scales; a few similar scales on 

 patagia; thorax with long lateral tufts, tipped with black scales, meeting over
