( 286 ) 



veiu 6, and submarginal series of spots on veins ; some dark grey striae alonn- 

 inner margin ; fringe dark grey. 



Underside olive-ochreons, with a more or less uniform fawn-coloured tinge, 

 and speckled with fnscons ; an outer row of dark vein-dots on both wings and 

 distinct black cell-spot on hindwing, the dark fascia of forewiug showing through ; 

 fringe greenish fawu, with dark chequering. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen olive-green, the abdomen greyer, the dorsum 

 darker, and anal tufts nchreous. 



Expanse of wings : 28 mm. 



2 6 6 from Cushi, Hiianneo, Peru, 1900 m. (Hoffmanns), type, both in perfect 

 condition ; and 1 6 from Limbani, Carabaya, Peru, 9500 ft., May 1904, dry season 

 (Ockcuden), somewhat faded, with all the pale markings whiter, the fascia rather 

 broader, touching inner margin, and without the white linear edging. 



ab. continens uov. 



Differs in having the fascia much broader, especially above, the inner edge 

 straight below median, the outer evenly lunulate ; no white edging line, but the 

 flesh-coloured band well marked ; submarginal line marked with pale only 

 at costa. 



1 6 from Cushi, Huauuco, Peru, 1900 m. (Hoffmanns). 



ab. conferta nov. 



Still darker than continents ; the flesh-coloured bands almost obscured by the 

 deep olive suffusion and dark striae : hindwing wholly dark fuscous olive, with 

 dense dark striae ; the outer line visible, and edged with paler. 



Underside fawn-colour only along costa of forewiug, the rest olive-ochreous, 

 densely packed with olive-fuscous striae. 



Head and thorax olive ; abdomen fuscous-olive. 



1 6 from Cushi, Huauuco, Peru, 1900 m. (Hoffmauns). 



The range of aberration in this insect appears considerable, and may possibly 

 include even the very differently marked and distinct-looking bkittata described 

 above. 



248. Callipseustes seniifimbriata spec. uov. 



Forewing : remarkably resembling that of C. peninaulata ab. continens, but 

 the fascia still broader, and paler olive in colour, the dark striations and cell-spot 

 showing through it, the basal and submarginal areas being nearly as dark olive. 



Hindwings : smooth, olive-ochreons grey, black-speckled towards base only, 

 except in one instance, where the speckling is general and an outer line is present; 

 the wing has a thick fleshy appearance, the outer margin showing a tendency to 

 curve underneath, and being entirely destitute of fringe. 



Underside of forewing olive fawn-colour, with a bent postmedian ochreous- 

 yellow band between veins and '.'. edged by the black dots of outer line above 

 middle: hindwing clothed throughout with olive-ochreons or rufous mealy scales, 

 slightly black-speckled near base, and with a black cell-spot. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen olive-green. 



Expanse of wings : 32—34 mm. 



4 6 6 from Cushi, Huauuco, Pern, 1900 m. (Hoffmanns).
