1 ? from Cindad Bolivar, Venezuela, July 180.s (S. Klages). 

 Distinguished from nit/dixi/iiama Warr. by the diti'erent gronnd-colonr. 



90. Opisthoxia scintillans spec. nov. 



Forewiiig: pale greyish cream-colonr, with a faint lirown tinge in places, and 

 beyond the middle thickly sprinkled with olive scales ; costa marked with some 

 coarse metallic scales towards base, the edge pale brown ; a pale brown difTnse 

 shade from inner margin just beyond middle, vertical in direction, but not reaching 

 costa, accompanied by some coarse brilliant metallic scales ; a subiuarginal 

 brownish shade from apex to anal angle, accompanied by similar bright metallic 

 scales in a sinuons series, forming slight blotches between the veins ; fringe very 

 pale brownish. 



Ilimlwing : rather browner, especially towards liindmargin ; the inner-marginal 

 half with coarse metallic scales; a submarginal sinnons metallic line, as in fore- 

 wings ; close to the margin between veins 4 and an oval black spot ringed with 

 yellow, the entire lower half of which is overlaid with a boss of brilliant metallic 

 scales, the whole placed in a round sj)aceof brownish yellow; fringe whitish; 

 inner margin and costal area whitish. 



Underside dull yellowish cream-colonr, with a smoky greyish marginal cloud 

 on each wing. 



Face and palpi pale brownish ; vertex, thorax, and abdomen like wings.

1 6 from Chanchamayo, Peru, October I'Jiil (Garlepp). 



The forewings are rather rubbed towards base, but they apjiear to have been 

 spriid<led with shining scales, like the inner area of hindwing. 



The species differs, alike in coloration and character of markings, from others 

 of the genus. 



Subfamily DEILINIINAE. 

 07. Lomographa iuaequata spec. nov. 



Like Lo7nogr(iplia chartularia Dogn. (Syllexis), but whereas in that species 

 the lines of the forewing are straight and at equal distances from one another, 

 starting from costal spots at about one-fourth, one-half, and three-fourths 

 respectively, in imteqwit<i the first line starts from one-third of costa and rnus 

 to middle of inner margin straight; the second from nearly two-thirds of costa 

 to three-fourths of inner margin sinuous ; the third from five-sixths of costa 

 nearly straight to anal angle ; in the hindwing the two lines are curved much 

 as in rlidrtiilariii, but the liindmargin and esptcially the anal angle are tinged 

 with fulvons. 



Expanse of wings : 34 mm.
