In the collections of the British Museum and W. W. Saunders,

 some distance from Balize.

Anterior wings black, the base and inner margin irrorated with 

 white, the cell with four not very well defined vittse ; two similar 

 ones between the median and radial nervures, followed at some 

 distance by a geminate spot near the outer margin ; six others 

 not well-defined, especially about the middle of their course, run 

 between the subcostal, discoidal and median nervules. Posterior 

 wings covered near the abdomen with very long hairs, of a very 

 light cream-colour or whitish, the outer margin broadly bordered 

 with black, the black colour extending along the nervules, this 

 black border with six whitish spots between the nervules. Below, 

 anterior wings shghtly glossed with bronzy, less irrorated with 

 white than above, the markings more defined, especially towards 

 the inner margin, which is nearly white. Posterior wings bright 

 yellow, the base with a round miniaceous spot, the nervures and 

 nervules black, the fimbria rather narrower than above, marked 

 with four large yellow spots, followed by three whitish ones. 



Head and thorax grayish ; antennse black, marked with white 

 below ; abdomen white. 



In the collection of the British Museum. 

 In the form of the wing and in the colouring of the upper sur- 

 face this species resembles the female of Pi. Hyparete ; but in the 

 colouring of the under surface and the more important character 

 of the neuration of the wing it is allied to Pi. Autothisbe. 1 have 

 only seen the specimen in the Museum collection.
