cell-spots black ; the oblique line faint and palo. Face aud palpi dark brown : 

 thorax aud abdomen concolorons with wings. 



Expanse of wings : 58 mm. 



One c? from Popayan, Colombia (Lehmann). 



Distinguished by the very thick dense scaling, especially of the underside. The 

 costa of forewings is all but straight throughout, depressed only just before apex, 

 which is slightly produced ; hindmargin bluntly elbowed at vein 4, vertical and 

 slightly bulged above, oblique below. Tooth of hindwiiigs sliort, the margin straight 

 and oblique on each side ; antennae simple. 



Distinguished from P. transtiwtd Wlk. from Jamaica by the quite simjilc 

 antennae ; in tmnstincta they are strongly ciliated. 



238. Sabulodes (?) bilineata sp. nov. 



Forewingx : mouse-colour, with an oclireous tinge ; the costa slightly darker ; 

 the two lines fuscous; first at one-third, slightly curved ; second straight, from 

 two-thirds of inner margin, retracted to costa at five-sixths ; fringe concolorous : 

 cell-spot indistinctly darker. 



Hindwings: with the outer line only, straight, at two-thirds. 



Underside paler, much freckled with fuscous, with traces of the outer line, 

 distinct only towards costa of forewings. Head, thorax, and abdomen concolorons. 



Expanse of wings : 39 mm. 



One (? from Bogota, Colombia. 



Forewings with apex minutely produced ; hindmargin visibly angled at vein 4. 

 Hindwings indistinctly crenulate, with a slightly larger tooth at vein 4. 



~3'.». Sicya inquinata sp. nov. 



Foreicings: dull yellow, varied with olive dark-centred partially coalescent 

 spots ; series of similar but larger spots constitute the lines ; the first near base, 

 consisting of three spots more or less confluent ; the second from costa just before 

 apex, below which it is somewhat bent, to inner margin at two-thirds, the spot 

 on costa double ; marginal area below the middle paler, with a lilac-grey suflusion ; 

 fringe yellow^ above, as far as the elbow, rufous below; a black cell-spot, and a 

 black spot near base below the median. 



Hiiic/wings: paler, varied with black only towards anal angle, where the ground- 

 colour becomes somewhat deeper; a dark curved central line from middle of inner 

 margin to midwing ; cell-spot black ; fringe yellow. 



Underside paler, the markings duller ; a white spot on costa between the double 

 apical spots. Head, thorax, and abdomen yellow, the abdomen tinged with grey 

 above. 



Expanse of wings : 33 mm. 



One ? from Cucuta, Venezuela. 



If Mr. Schaus is right in considering an insect in his collection to be the 

 same as this, it must be a very variable species, and possibly identical with Sic^a 

 flognini Th. Mg. 



240. Simopteryx subflavata sp. nov. 



Forewings : pale glaucous ochreons, mixed with olive-greeu ; the costa rufons 

 olive ; the two lines fine, ferruginous, the first preceded and the second followed by
