'■i~G. Anisoperas adulta spec. nov. 



Forewing : deep purplish grey, with darker striae mixed with pale grey scales ; 

 the lines deeper ; first from nne-tliird of costa to one-third of inner margin, faintly 

 ontcurved ; outer line from beyond three-fourths of costa to quite two-thirds of 

 inner margin, bisinuate, bluntly projecting at veins 7 and 4, incurved between ; an 

 undefined median shade near before outer line ; a zigzag submarginal line, some- 

 times obscured ; cell-spot black ; fringe concolorous. 



Iliiidwing : without basal line ; the postmedian line dentate on veins, and there 

 marked with jiale dashes. 



Underside paler, duller grey ; cell-spots and outer line marked in both wings, 

 the line not corresponding with that of the upperside. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen concolorous with wings. 



Expanse of wings : 48 mm. 



1 ? from Colombia. 



277. Anisoperas? aurantiaca spec. nov. 



Forewing: dull yellowish ochreous, suffused and freckled with ferruginous 

 grey ; costal area duller, olive-ochreous with short dark striae ; basal line diffuse, 

 outcurved below costa, the basal area more or less filled up with darker ; on costa 

 before apex a semi-oval pale blotch, edged with whitish and then with fuscous 

 scales ; from it start two lines, the inner ferruginous, lunnlate, oblique to beyond 

 middle of inner margin closely followed by a belt of olive-grey scales ; the other 

 line is submarginal, diffuse and irregularly waved to anal angle ; fringe con- 

 colorous, with two fine grey lines ; cell-spot black, followed by an indistinct 

 ferruginous median shade, often very nearly obsolete. 



Ilindwing : the same, but without first line. 



Underside dnller, with the markings darker ; apex of forewing pale grey. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen like wings. 



Expanse of wings : 40 mm. 



4 ¥ ¥ : 3 from Salidero, 1 from Bnlim, N.W. Ecuador, January and February 

 1901 (Flemming & Miketta). 



I believe these to belong to Anisoperas ; but in the absence of the S their 

 position is not certain. 



278. Anisoperas latibrunnea spec. nov. 



Foreiriiig : dull reddish brown in the central area, more greyish brown in 

 basal and marginal fields ; first line from one-fourth of costa to one-fourth of inner

 but sliglitly waved in its upper course, fine and black, followed by a white line 

 distinct at costa, then another black and a dull ochreous grey line ; submarginal line 

 very obscure, zigzag, plainest at costa, above anal angle touching the ochreons 

 line; a black blotch along veiu 4 from outer line to angle; cell-spot linear, black 

 with a pale line down it. The whole surface is freckled with fuscous ; the costa 

 with dark vertical striae and pale interspaces ; fringe reddish grey. 



Ilindwiiiy : dark grey tinged with brown to outer line at four-fifths ; this line
