approximated). Hindicing with cell almost one-half, DC bent, very oblique 



posteriorly, C well separated from SC, R* about central, M' stalked (in caenca 

 sometimes connate or closely approximated). 



I do not think Anatolis is separable, in spite of somewhat more slender 

 build.

The unique type is crippled, but seems to agree generically, excejit that the 

 cell of the forewing is a little longer.

* Brachyglene caeiiea ab. fracta ab. nov. O, 37 mm. Band of forewing incomplete, tapering 

 to a point on iipperside just behind M*, on underside just behind M^. Caracas, Venezuela. Type 

 in coll. Tring Mus. 



t Brachyglene schausi sp. nov. o $, 30-33 mm. Smaller than caenea, cells slightly shorter, 

 resulting in the stalking of 11' of both wings, as in moat Brachyglene. Face, gula, and patches on 

 patagia, on tegula, and on forecoxa yellow. 



Forewing with veins proximally yellowish ; discal band of almost uniform width throughout 

 (generally rather narrow), or tapering posteriorly, its proximal edge not forming the sinus whicli 

 is noticeable in caeHca. CostaRica: Siquirres, circ. 1.000 ft. (A. Hall), type (J in coll. Jo. cty ; Sixola

J Brachyglene circumlita sp. nov. Q, 35 mm. Akin to bracteola Hb.-Gey. AbdQu;en with a 

 broad yellow lateral line. 



Forewing above with a posteriorly tapering orange Ijand from C (2 mm. xvide) to SlI'. in place 

 of the round spot of bracteola ; basal streak of imderside distinctly indicated above ; a large sub- 

 apical smear ; all these markings brighter and still more extended beneath. Hindwing with the 



orange area much more extended than in bracteola,, leaving only a dark distal border of 2 '5 nun. 

 width in its widest part, tapered at apex and tornus. Amazons: Ceara, August 1884 (Leach), 

 type in coll. Joicey ; Fonte Boa, July 1907 (S. M. Klages), 2 $$ in coH. Tring Mus., with the basal 

 and subapical markings above sharper, the border of hindwing slightly broader. 



§ Brachyglene patinata sp. nov. q, 30 mm. Similar to subtilis, possibly a Ioc.tI rnc. Ali- 

 domen with dor.sal dots much feelilcr. anal end more extended black. 



Forewing with the yellow spot very much larger — 5 mm. at costa and reaching w.|l behind 



the stalk of R^ — M'. Hindwing witli a slight dark border, shaped about as in crorer.ria Hehaua 



but much narrower. Forewing beneath yellow from base to beyond the yellow patch of upper- 

 side. Brazil (per F. Moore). Type in coll. Brit. Mus.
