Genus III. Dolophrosyne gen. nov. 



Face broad, with appressed scales. Eye small. Palpus rather short, rough- 

 scaled. Antenna in o with fascicles of fine cilia. Pectus and femora hairj'. 

 Abdomen slender, not elongate. WiBgs with the scaling thin and hair-like. 



Forewing with the cell long (almost two-thirds), DC well developed, DC°~' 

 oblique inwards ; SC" from cell near its end, SC^'^'' very long-stalked, R' about 



central, M' stalked. Hindwing with costal margin elongate, apex rather well 



expressed, termen gently rounded ; cell long (about three-fifths) ; C approxi- 

 mated to SC for a moderate distance, rather gradually diverging ; R- central, 

 M' stalked (tyjje mirax sp. nov.). 



1. mirax Prout, sp. nov, J (E. Peru). 



Genus IV. Tolimicola gen. nov. 



Face somewhat rough. Eye large. Palpus moderate, with some pro- 

 jecting hair-scales beneath ; third joint small. Antenna in S with short 



only by a dash along costa ; venter more extended orange. '' Brazil" {Amazons ?), 1844-45, ex 

 coU. Smith. Type in coll. Joicey. Pebas, a damaged $ in coll. Tring Mus. 



* Myonia seducta sp. nov. ^, 30 mm. Differs from mitys in smaller size, whitish vertex and 

 dorsal stripe on thorax and anterior part of abdomen, cream-coloured {not orange) markings, etc. 

 Forewing with the pale cell-band more proximally placed {not reaching DC) and much shorter 



(not quite reaching M^). Hindiving, in addition to the corresponding {but more angular) central 



patch, with an elongate abdominal patch behind fold, from near base to nearly three-fourths. Fore- 

 wine; beneath similar, the pale veins less marked. Hindwing beneath only black in a basal streak 

 behind C {entering cell) and a broad distal border which differs essentially from that of mitys in that 

 it leaves free a broad apex instead of tomal region ; the rest greenish, not bluish, leaving the same 

 markings as on upperside pale yellowish. San Esteban, Venezuela, July 1909 (S. M. Klages). 

 Type in coll. Tring Mus. 



f Myonia basivitta sp. nov. $, 30 mm. Face and vertex blackish brown. Palpus blackish 

 brown, at base orange. Postorbital rim and part of breast orange. Thorax blackish brown, tegulae 

 marked with orange, {Abdomen lost.) Wings shaped nearly as in Scea [aurifl-amnia, el ■. ). 



Forewing orange ; costal edge blackish brown ; a blackisli brown hindmargin, proximally 

 jtist crossing SM^, distally narrowing almost to a point ; a tapering {distally sharply pointed) 

 blackish brown vitta along fold to middle of wing ; a broad blackish brown apical patch, its proximal 

 edge rujining almost straight from C well beyond middle to near termen before M-, then abruptly 



bent an<-l tapering off to a point at tomus. Hindwing with R^ — iVP longish-stalked ; blackish 



brown. Underside similar, but with an appreciable outward curve in the proximal edge of the 

 black apical patch between R" and M'. " Brazil." Type in coll. Brit. Mus. Recalls Euryptidia 

 basivitta and Darna {? Euryptidia) ftgulina Butl., III. Het. i. 5.j. tab. 19. fig. 8. 



+ Dolophrosyne mirax sp. nov. ^, 24 mm. Head and body blackish, slightly mixed with 

 brown ; legs somewhat browner. Wings subdiaphaiious, blackish grey, the veins of the forewing 

 indistinctly yellowish light brown, the hindwing — at least towards base — still more thinly scaled. 

 Underside similar. Huancabamba [near Cerro de Pasco, E. Peru], 6,000 — 10,000 ft. TjT^e in coll, 

 Joicey. Perhaps akin to some of the species placed in Monocreagra, but the generic characters, 

 particularly the point of origin of SC- of the forewing, demand its separation.
