hiiidraargin. In the hiudwinjjs tlie streak is always broader than in fri(/i (fa, and, 

 like that of the forewings, not continued so far towards the hindmargin. 



Espanse of wings : 36 mm. 



Several of both sexes from Cali, Colombia, September to December 1S94 

 (Rosenberg). 



21. Josia striata Drnce ab. attenuata nov. 



Differs from typical striata in that the yellow streak of tlie forewing is narrow 

 and of nearly uniform width throughout, and thinning out gradually almost to a 

 point at extremity. In the hindwings the marginal black border is much wider, 

 and, instead of ending in a point at anal angle, extends half-way up the inner 

 margin. Underside the same. 



One ? without locality. 



ab. ampliflava nov. 



This form has the streak of forewing broad and of nearly equal width to near 

 the margin, where it thins out nearly to a point, as in ab. attenuata. In the 

 hindwings the hindmarginal border is only half as wide as in typical striata, so 

 that the hindwings may be described as yellow with a narrow black margin.
