reacliing- subinedian fold, ringed with purple aud with vein 2 purple across it, and 

 no spot in bindwing. Of the 2 <SS, both from Santiago, one is like typical 

 protractaria, the other shows a white red-ringed spot between veins 2 and 3 on 

 forewing only. This S, like the second ? from Santiago mentioned above, is 

 smaller and brighter green, and possibly both belong rather to the Dominican form 

 now described as impiinctata. 



Moeschler, describing his anomalaria, a ? from Porto Rico, gives the blotch as 

 extending from vein 4 to anal angle of forewing, white, edged with red, and 

 partially dnsted with reddish, with the veins across it red also, and a smaller 

 blotch on hindwing only half the size. 



In the types of kefi'rospila Hmpsn. from the Bahamas, and olhim-wnla Warr. 

 from Sta. Lucia (wrongly descrilied as a Rkodochlora), both ? ?, the blotch of 

 forewing is double, like that in the ? of centrifugaria from Holquin, Cnba ; but 

 the upper half, above vein 3, is smaller and red-brown, the lower half larger and 

 white edged with red-brown, this lower half only reappearing on hindwing. 



In all the forms the cell-spots and the spots representing the two lines are 

 red-brown; those of the outer line running to the small blotch where present, 

 except in the Cuban specimens, where the line is farther from the outer margin 

 and passes on the inside of the blotch ; when the blotch is enlarged, the row 

 of dots is of course in all cases interrupted in the middle. 



38. Oospila longiplaga spec. nov. 



Forcwiiu] : green, with the markings much as in i/epressa Warr., but that 

 from anal angle extending along inner margin for three-nuarters instead of only 

 half-way, and swollen towards base, both thickly striated with reddish and fuscous, 

 and connected by a narrow purplish band at outer margin. 



Hindwing : with the blotches similarly striated ; that at anal angle elongated, 

 reaching more than half-way along inner margin and extending somewhat beyond 

 vein 2. 



Face and palpi red-brown ; thorax and two basal segments of dorsum pale 

 green ; abdomen bone-colour, with the tufts reddish. 



Expanse of wings : 34 mm. 



2 ¥ ¥ from Fonte Boa, Upper Amazons, July— September 1006 (Klages). 



39. Oospila minorata spec. nov. 



Like 0. albicoma Feld. in markings, bnt always smaller, with the pale blotches 

 pinker; the lower elongate blotch of forewing never extends above the cell-fold, 

 whereas in albicoma it all but touches the costal streak. 



Expanse of wings : 32 ram. 



13 cJcJ from La Oroya, Rio Inambari, Pern, 31oi( ft., September 19t)5 to 

 January 1906, wet season, and 2 cJ cJ from Tingnri, Carabaya, Peru, 3400 ft., August 

 1906 (Ockenden) ; 11 Si from Fonte Boa, Upper Amazons, May— September 

 1906 (Klages), type; and '1 S 3 from La Union, R. Huacama3'o, Carabava, Peru, 

 2000 ft., November, December 19i(4 (Ockenden). 



411. Oospila nasuta siiec. nov. 

 Foir/ci/ig : green, with the jiale blotches like those of l>. niptimactda Warr., 

 bnt the apical blotch narrower, and that at anal angle not extemling to middle of 

 inner margin and emitting a broad oblique projection to below end of cell.
