28a. C. hamifera hamifera. 



Forewing tawny in <$ , more fuscous in ?; yellow submargiual band of hind" 

 wing above vestigial, or at least narrower than the tawny marginal band, sometimes 

 the upperside of the hindwing all tawny, with only a vestige of yellow. 



Hab. Trinidad and British Guiana. 



10 (?<?, 2 ? ?. 



284. C. hamifera fuscalis subsp. nov. 



Forewing of <$ fuscous ; the yellow submargiual band of the hindwing above 

 broader than the tawny marginal baud. 



Hab. La Union, Rio Huacamayo, Carabaya, South-East Peru, 2000 ft. 

 (G. R. Ockenden).

29. Citheronia laocoon lobesis subsp. nov. 



S. The reddish brown colonr of the upperside of the forewing so much 

 extended that the yellow area is reduced (as iu some ? S of C. laocoon) to a large 

 discocellular patch, below which there are some small yellow spots, and to a very 

 large subapical patch continued backwards by a row of widely separated spots — 

 namely, a small spot, a larger one, two small ones, and again a larger one, the last 

 standing at the hiudmargin ; the reddish brown distal marginal area narrower at 



apex and wider behind than in Braziliau laocoon <$<$. On hindwing the subbasal 



tawny patch merged together with the rather ill-defined discal band. 



On underside the costal margin and disc of forewing more extended tawny than 

 in laocoon ; discal line of hindwing shadowy. 



Hab. Bebedero, Costa Rica (J. Underwood).

30. Eacles imperialis oslari subsp. nov. 



cJ. As broad-winged as Atlantic specimens of imperialis Drury (1773). 

 Hindwing on both sides with a broad discal line, which is wider in front than 

 in all the specimens of E. i. imperialis which we have seen, the discal liue of 

 the underside of the forewing also being continued to the hiudmargin. Antenna 

 as in imperialis. 



Hab. Nogales, Arizona, July 1903 (E. Oslar).

31. Eacles imperialis tucumana subsp. nov. 



c?. Similar to E. i. magnified Walk. (1855); the forewing very acute, the 

 discal line broad above and below, being continued to the hindmargin. Hindwing 

 also with a broad discal line on both sides. 



Hab. Tucumau, N.W. Argentina.

32. Eacles imperialis decoris subsp. nov. 



S. Similar to E. i. imperialis. Antenna the same, i.e. more segments are 

 pectinated than in E. i. magnified Walk. (1855) from South America. Forewiu"- 

 narrower than in E. i. imperialis, but much less acute and falcate than in 

 E. i. magnified. The process situated between the clasper and the anal segment 

 larger than in imperidlis : the penis-sheath without a tooth on the dorsal surface.
