* Myonia semiplaga pleniplaga. $. White patch of hindvving considerably broadened, being 

 partly bounded for the greater part of its course by the submedian fold (in semiplaga semiplaga not 

 crossing M). Both forms differ from sohria in wanting the white ajiical patch of hindwing beneath. 

 Yungas de Coroico, 1.800 m.. October 1006 — March 1907{Oarlepp). type; Prov. Sara. Dept. S. Cruz 

 de la Sierra, April — May 1904 (J. Steinbach) ; both in coll. Tring Mus. 



t Mt/onia conigera sp. nov. ?, 32 mm. Differs from avara as follow.?. 



Forewinq above with the white band from hindmargin more proximal, much shorter, not 

 entering cell, broadest posteriorly, its proximal edge being strongly obhque ; beneath with accom- 

 panying grey-white shading reaching to base, to beyond middle of wing and to middle of cell. 



Hiivlwing with the black border narrower, beneath without white apex ; abdominal grey shading 

 of upperside broader. (.Abdomen wanting.) Vpper Eio Toro, La Merced, E. Peru. August — 

 September 1901 (Simons). Tj-pe in coll. Tring Mus. 



J Myonia leechi sp. nov. <J, 31 mm. Smaller and narrower-winged than lindigii, termen of 

 forewing more oblique. Wing-tegula with a yellow streak. 



Forewing with yellow band not reaching SM-, relatively broad. Hindwing with R= — JP very 



long-stalked ; without apical yellow spot ; the blue reflections of al .dominal region scarcely entering 

 cell. Hindwing beneath glaucous whitish along costal margin and from cell-fold to abdominal 

 margin (except at tcrmen). recalling mitys. Santarem, October 1884 (Leach). Type in coll. Joicey. 

 § Here we have to deal with a single ver>- variable (and very scarce) species or with a number 

 of close allies. I treat the forms provisionally as belonging togellier. Unfortunately the jj is 

 unknown ; Druce mistook the sex of his type. 



31a. caeneides form. (? sp.) nov. O. 37 mm. Transverse band 2 mm. in width, coloured as 

 in lindigii. continued above as well as beneath (in labatm beneath only) by a roundish apical spot 

 on hindwing. Sarayacu, Ecuador (C. Buckley). Type in coll. Joicey (misidentified by Druce as 

 caenea Drury). 



31b. eimpUncata form. (? sp.) nov. $. 39 ram. Band coloured as in the prece^ng, rather 

 more distal, on upperside narrowed posteriorly, ending at SM^ close to tomus ; hindwin/unmarked, 

 beneath with a noticeable sprinkling of irregularly distributed bkie-grey scales ; venter scarcely 

 pale. Sarayacu. Ecuador (C. Buckley). Type in coll. Joicey. Possibly a remarkable ab. of 

 evippe. to some extent connected by the following. 



31c. prapcsignata form. nov. $, 38 mm. Forewing almost as in simplifi^ata, fringe tipped with 

 whitish anterioriy. Hindwing above with slight purple-blue rellections and with traces of a 

 liroken curved orange postdiscal band between C and the stalk of R'— JP (the largest spot being 

 an anterior one), which is beneath reduced to a few scales, except for a strong orange line along end 

 of SC and stalk of SC»— R' ; venter cream-white. Tefle, Amazons {.M. de Mathan). T.vpe in coll. 

 Tring JIus. Probably conspocifio with the preceding, but their status in relation to the rest of 

 the group problematical. 



31d. coii/iHC'w form. (? sp.) nov. ?, 36 mm. Coloration above as in ^ahami ; band of forewing 

 somewhat broadened, light veins prominent ; an apical spot on hindwing as in caeneides ; the palo 

 venter becoming orange anally, the apical spot of hindwing beneath, on the contrary, whitish, not 

 orange. La Mercede, Chanc'haraayo, Peru, 2,000—3,000 ft. (Watkins). Type in coll. Joicey. 

 Also from BogotA and Cuyaba, Matto Grosso, in coll. Tring Mus. ; Ecuador and Songo, Bolivia, in 

 coll. Brit. Mus. 



3Ie. aUingens form. (? sp.) nov. 9, 37 mm. Collar more distinctly orange; wings blacker, 

 band of forewing narrowed, almost pure white ; apical spot of hindwing orange, above represented
