NOVITATES ZOOLOGICAE XXV. 1918. 89 



tibia rather strongly developed, $ with 3 spurs. Abdomen in S longer, approach- 

 ing that of gracilis Warr. (Novitates Zoologicae, xii. 322). 



Forewing rather darker than in orbelia ; terminal line more slender, more 

 nearly continuous. Hindwing with the excisions in termen rather deejj ; cell- 

 dot in general larger than in orbelia. 



Brazil : Organ Mountains, near Tijuca, Rio Janeuo (S. R. Wagner), type cJ and 

 paratype $ in coll. British Museum ; Rio Janeiro (Mathew), 5 in coll. Joicey. Para- 

 guay : Sapucay, October — November 1903 (W. Foster), ? in coll. British Museum. 



This species was mentioned by me in 1910 {Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. (8. vi. 244) 

 under the genus Euptychopoda. It may possibly prove necessary to merge 

 in one the three kindred forms Euacidalia Pack, (areole double, ? hindtibia with 

 two spurs), Eumacrodes Warr. (areole double, ? hindtibia with three spurs *) 

 and Euptychopoda Prout (areole single, ? hindtibia with three spurs), but if only 

 one is sunk to Euacidalia it should be Eumacrodes, the $ tibial armature being in 

 this instance less essential than the venation. Euptychopoda Prout, loc. cit., 

 which I find sinks to excilinea Warr. (Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus. xxx. 444) differs 

 from Eumacrodes euthysticta, apart from the single areole, in the much more 

 undulate subterminal line, etc. 



* I bftse this character on a worn $ from Trinidad in coll. British Museum. Warren's type of 

 gracilis, a <^ from Venezuela, remains unique in coll. Tring Museum. Ijut I have a {^ from Caracas and 

 I consider it fairly safe to sink the name to punctulata Snell. {Tijd. Ent. xxx. 50. t. 4. f. 4) from 

 Curacao. From this, the new species differs in the lack of subcostal angulation of the postmedian 

 line, less projecting antennal joints, with less extremely long ciliation, minute hindtarsus. large cell- 

 dot of hindwing.
