158. Eudule circumducta sp. nov. 



Foreivings : orange-red ; the costa and hindmargin narrowly blackish ; the 

 costal streak is quite narrow at base, widening gradually to apex where the dark 

 margin is broadest. 



Hindwings : with only the hindmargin blackish, this narrowed to a point above 

 anal angle and before apex on costa. 



Underside the same. Head, thorax, and abdomen red ; antennae and palpi 

 black. 



Expanse of wings : 26 mm. 



One c? from Chimbo, Ecuador, 1000 ft., Aug. 1897 (Rosenberg).

Subfamily HETERUSIINAE. 



159. Heterusia magnifica sp. nov. 



Forewings : bright red ; the inner margin narrowly, the hindmargin more 

 broadly black ; costa with two triangular black blotches at base, an oblong broader 

 one at middle, reaching to median vein, and a bar beyond it to hindmargin ; all the 

 blotches separated from each other at costal edge by a sulphur-yellow spot ; fringe 

 black, chequered with white between the veins. 



Hindwings : with the black hindmarginal border pierced by long red streaks 

 between the veins and shorter ones on the veins ; and with three black bands inter- 

 rupted by red along the fold of the cell ; the first basal broad ; the second strongly 

 angulated on the radial ; the third more broadly interrupted in the middle, con- 

 sisting of one large oblong blotch from costa, and four smaller snbquadrate ones 

 from inner margin, separated by the red veins ; fringe mottled, black and white ; 

 wholly white round the apex. 



Underside of forewings like upper, but the apex beyond the postmedian band 

 pale sulphur-colour with a row of oblong black blotches on the veins ; the fringe 

 snlphur-colour with black mottlings beyond the veins ; a blotch on the subcostal 

 vein at base, and vein 8, across the postmedian band, sulphur-colour ; of hindwings 

 with the red spaces all sulphur-colour, and the veins delicately marked with the 

 same colour ; the fringe the same, with slight black mottling. Face and palpi 

 hairy, black mixed with pale snlphur ; thorax and abdomen black ; fillet and tips 

 of shoulders and of patagia tinged with pale ; segmental rings of abdomen narrowly

160. Heterusia obliquistriga sp. nov. 



Foretvings : dull olive-brown ; two slightly oblique yellowish white streaks 

 from costa ; the first at one-third, the second a little beyond two-thirds ; the first

 hyaline streak towards the hindmargin between veins 2 and 3 ; the second stopping 

 short at vein 6.
