Under side of primaries chestnut-red at base below tlie cell ; also 

 within the cell next base, but partly covered with gray, especially 

 along the sub-costal nervure ; remainder of wing pearl-gray, showing 

 a brown sub-color on disc and in the middle of each interspace on 

 the apical area, and at inner angle; the gray becoming suffused with 

 pale blue as it approaches the hind margin; this margin narrowly 

 edged with yellow-brown; the sub-marginal lines repeated, distinct, 

 blackish-brown ; the white spots repeated, enlarged, and in addition, a 

 white patch in the outer row on costa ; the lower spot of this row, in 

 discoidal interspace, nearly conceals a small ocellus, a narrow edge of 

 black being discernible on the anterior side, and the yellow iris being 

 nearly complete ; the other three ocelli re-appear, enlarged, each with 

 blue scales and a well-de6ned yellow iris; the cellular spots as on 

 upper side, the intervening space being clear white. 



Secondaries pearl-gray, tinted with blue near hind margin ; the 

 gray shade least dense on the disk next before the ocelli, allowing a 

 brown sub-color to appear; the sub-marginal lines repeated ; the inner 

 margin also bordered by a brown line; the white discal patch and 

 spots repeated, and the line of spots extended across the wing to inner 

 margin, following the course of a dark wavy line; the spots in the 

 cell distinct, being transverse bars, the interior one prolonged into the 

 next upper interspace; the ocelli repeated and each containing a 

 large blue patch and edged by a narrow yellow ring which itself is 

 edged indistinctly by fuscous ; an additional ocellus on the inner uuir- 

 gin, small, oval, also marked with blue. 



IJody above reddish-brown, beneath gray on thorax, yellowish on 

 abdomen; legs ochraceous, the tibiae gray; palpi clear white, fulvous 

 above and at tip; antenna3 yellow fulvous partly annulated with 

 white; club fuscous at base, yellow at tip.

 ploring Expedition, August, 1874, at Camp Lowell and in Sonoto 

 Valley, Arizona. 



Argyiinis Xausi<*aa. n. up. 



Malr. — Expands 2.') inches. Primaries strongly arched, moderately 

 produced, hind margin straight. 



Upper side deep red- fulvous on primaries, brightest on outer limb of 

 secondaries, much obscured on basal area of each wing, but especially 

 on secondaries, the dark portion reaching (juite to the mesial band : 

 hind margins edged by two heavy parallel lines, inclosing very narrow 

 fulvous spaces throughout, divided by the black nervulcs; the sub-
