faintly reproduced; costa of primaries lighter, with a series of dark

This species presents a great superficial resemblance to 

 Eugiva carisca Schaus, from Jalapa, Mex. Through the kind- 

 ness of Dr. Dyar we have received a water color drawing of 

 this latter species, and a careful comparison has proved it dis- 

 tinct. It may be most easily separated by the white teminal 

 patch, the larger size of the patch below cubitus, and the much 

 darker color of the secondaries.

 they form several irregular bands across the wing; basal portion of 

 wing free from markings except along costa which is dotted with 

 black ; a prominent white bar at end of cell ; extremity of veins spot- 

 ted with black. Secondaries smoky brown, lighter along costa with

Givira lotta, n. sp. 



$ . Antennae pectinate, brownish, with white shaft ; front and palpi 

 grayish ; thorax and patagia smoky brown, strongly sprinkled with
