(Bogota ;— this species V) 



This common Bogota insect has alwa3's been confounded with the Colombian 

 forms of 1'. iphidamas and P. anchises. The main differences from tliese insects 

 liave been mentioned above (}). 472). 



(?. Upperside. — Forewing : olive-green patch mostly broader than in tlie 

 preceding form, and always reaching close to inner margin, bnt never entering cell ; 

 a small white spot present in some specimens, standing behind M', there being 

 occasionally also a tiny dot in front of M', this latter spot more often marked 



on the underside. Hindwing : four spots, contiguous, the first more or less 



rounded. 



Underside: five, rarely six, spots on hindwing, paler than in the preceding; 

 sj)ot R- — R^ farther away from cell. 



¥ . Upperside.— FoKvivag : discal spot R' — M' much larger than spot ll'^ — 11^, 



and also larger than in the previous subspecies. Hindwing : band paler red than 



in Central American females, touching cell or entering it ; spot SC- — K' small or 

 absent. 



Underside : white upper scales of band of hindwing in most specimens 

 tridentate. 



Ilab. Colombia : Magdalena and t'auca valleys ; Sta. Marta ; Northern 

 Venezuela. 



Type : c? from Cnndinamarca. 



Most Venezuelan specimens have two white spots on forewing, separated l)y 

 vein M>. 



In one of our males, probably from Bogota, the patch on the upperside of the 

 hindwing is orange.

c. P. lijcimenes paraUus subsp. nov. (Pi. VI. fig. 31). 



A very distinct, small form. 



(J. Upperside. — Forewing : green patch as in crythras ; a round creamy sjiot 



M' — M-. Hindwing : red patch smaller than in the preceding, consisting of 



four spots ; first spot minute, sometimes absent. 



Underside: wliite spot of forewing large, tonching both M' and M- ; four red 

 spots on hindwing, first sometimes absent ; no sjjot on abdominal fold. 



?. Upperside: forewing less opaque than in the previous forms; sjiots purer 

 white; cell-spot reduced, triangular, being the smallest of tlie three spots jjreseiit, 

 rarely reaching halfway across cell; no spot between R- and R^ ; spot It'' — M' 

 triangular, being obliquely truncate distally, separated from the cell-spot by the
