131. Cymatophora reducta spec. nov. 



dloselj' allied to C. didocata Warr., bnt smaller, darker in gronnd-colonr, 

 and densely covered with dark speckling, so that the markings are all more or 

 less obscnre ; in dislocata, on the other hand, the gronnd-colonr is jiale, with slight 

 speckling, and the lines and markings stand ont distinctly. On the contrary, 

 the underside has the dark markings much less expressed. 



Expanse of wings : 46 mm. 



4 cJcJ from Hnancabamba, Cerro de Pasco, Pern, 6000 to 10,000 ft. 

 (Biittger), sent along with several uniformly marked examples of dislocata. 



132. Cymatophora striata spec. nov. 



Foreiving : whitish ochreous, tinged with darker in places, and speckled 

 with black ; all the lines indistinctly geminate ; the second arm generally 

 faint, and except the outer line all interrupted ; basal and median marked 

 mainly by black dashes on the veins ; cell-spot black ; outer line slightly 

 Innnlate-dentate and nearly straight, parallel to hindmargin, followed by a brown 

 shade, which is distinct only at inner margin and beyond cell, bnt is marked 

 by black striae on the veins ; snbmarginal line lunular, the Innules filled in 

 with black, forming spots and followed by a dark shade ; marginal spots large, 

 black ; fringe concolorons. 



Iliriduing : similar ; but without basal line ; the outer line and shade strongly 

 marked. 



Underside rather duller ; the lines and shades indistinctly indicated; the 

 cell-spots and marginal spots black. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen ochreous, with darker sjieckling ; dorsum with 

 pairs of black spots. 



Expanse of wings : 40 mm. 



2 S i from Hnancabamba, C^erro de Pasco, Peru, 6000 to 10,OUO ft. (Bottger). 



133. Iridopsis alternata spec. nov. 



Forewirig : grey with a slight greenish tint, with fine dark striations ; crossed 

 by three bands of pale red-brown ; the two lines black ; first from one-fourth 

 of costa to one-fourth of inner margin, nearly vertical, but incurved at both 

 extremities, preceded by a dark grey shade, the interval between filled np with 

 red-brown foraiing the first band ; outer line from three-fourths of costa to three- 

 fifths of inner margin, black and thickened at the veins, forming an outward 

 projection on each side of vein 5 and three sinuses basewards, first between costa and 

 vein 5, second between veins 4 and 2, third between veins 2 and 1, followed by 

 the second red-brown band, edged externally with dark grey, the red tinge running 

 in on the innerside of the line between veins 2 and 4 and again on inner margin 

 as far as submedian vein ; median line dark grey, double on costa, the inner 

 arm touching a grey, darker-edged, ocelloid cell-spot ; snbmarginal line wavy, 

 pale grey edged with darker; marginal area red-brown, forming the third band, 

 shaded with black between veins 6 and 7 ; black marginal spots ; fringe reddish 

 grey ; besides the three bands, the costal area and the veins in outer half of wing 

 are reddish. 



llindwing : like forewiug ; but the space between basal bar and median 

 shade pale grey or whitish, as in /. htiumbaria Oberth.
