( 20Y ) 



Ilindwings : with a straight brownish postmedian line or shade, often appearing 

 Innnlate ; marginal shade slight ; cell-spot brown. 



Underside yellower, with the markings, especially the cell-spots, more distinct. 

 Head, thorax, and abdomen concolorons. 



Expanse of wings : c? 23 to 24 mm.; ? 24 to 28 mm. 



A series including both sexes from Parana, Entre Rios, Argentina. 



The two inner lines of forewings are often very slight or even obsolete ; on the 

 other hand, in the darker and more strongly marked ? ? , a central line is visible on 

 the hindwings also. 



Subfamily ENNOMINAE. 

 208. Anisoperas impostor sp. nov. 



Forewings : ground colour fulvous-yellow, almost hidden by very line and 

 dense fuscous striae, the subcostal area and a small patch beyond cell remaining 

 yellower ; lines fine, dark brown ; first from one-third of costa to one-third of inner 

 margin, bent below costa, then straight and a little oblique to inner margin ; second 

 from two-thirds of costa, sharply angled outwards on vein 7, then incurved, and from 

 vein 5 straight and parallel to first line, to inner margin shortly beyond middle, 

 marked externally by white dots on the veins ; in its costal portion it forms the 

 margin of a subapical white blotch, which is notched outwardly and contains some 

 dark scales ; from the outside of this blotch an obscurely dentated submarginal line 

 runs to before anal angle, the teeth darker, tipped with whitish scales ; cell-spot 

 black, ringed with grey ; fringe concolorons. 



Hindwings : the same, but without first line ; yellow spot beyond cell plain. 



Underside dull testaceous, fnscons-speckled ; the lines indistinctly marked ; 

 cell-spots plain. Face, palpi, and vertex (}ark fuscous : fillet white ; thorax and 

 abdomen concolorons with wings. 



Expanse of wings: c? 35 mm.; ? 46 mm. 



Four (?(?, one ? from Faramba, Ecuador, March 1897, dry season, 3000 ft. 

 (Rosenberg). 



Distinguished from both atropunctaria Wlk., and svhfultnta Warr., by the 

 regular curvature of the secoiidline, and the comparative distinctness of all the lines. 

 The small yellow fulvous patch beyond the cell of both wings is characteristic. 



209. Anisoperas rectilinea sp. nov. 



Forewings : mouse-colour, densely dusted with dark fuscous and hoary scales ; 

 the costa striated blackish and white ; the lines blackish ; first at one-third, curved 

 in middle, and marked by a dull yellow spot on median vein ; outer line straight 

 or faintly curved, from two-thirds of inner margin to costa close before apex ; a 

 denticulated submarginal line ; the veins towards margin somewhat darker ; fringe 

 concolorons ; cell-spot very obscure. 



Ilindwings : like forewings, but without basal line. 



Underside paler, without first line, and with traces of cell-spots. Head, thorax, 

 and abdomen like wings. 



Expanse of wings : S 39 mm.; ? 41 mm. 



A pair from Merida, Venezuela (Briccno). 



The ? has traces of a darker median shade adjacent to the outer line.
