CERTAIN BUTTERFLY GENERA — FIELD 113 



subgenus with K] about the same length as R2; M2 stalked with base 

 of Rs+i+s+Mi; R2 from well before or near apex of cell. Hindwing 

 with Cu2 from near middle of cell and about opposite origin of Rg and 

 with distance between bases of vein Sc+Rj and vein Rg about equal 

 or shghtly less than distance between bases of Cu2 and M3; distance 

 between veins Cui and Cu2 slightly less, about equal or greater than 

 distance between bases of R3 and Mi. 



Legs: Spurs lacking on all three tibiae. Paronychium (figs. 28, 

 29) (not absent as reported by Klots, loc. cit., pp. 146, 219) as de- 

 scribed for the two included subgenera. Claw (figs. 28, 29) directed 

 distinctly downward, with its dorsal margin very gradually curved and 

 its long axis nearly parallel to the basal margin; relatively long, at 

 least three times as long as its width at base. Tooth closely approxi- 

 mate to distal portion of claw and originating from before the middle 

 or from near the middle; only slightly shorter than distal portion of 

 claw and usually having its dorsal margin much longer than width of 

 claw at base. Pulvillus (figs. 28, 29) narrow and greatly reduced, 

 being from less than one-half to one-half the width of base of claw. 



Genitalia: Male (figs. 4, 5, 12, 13) similar to Tafochila, with 

 uncus relatively long and slender as compared with Theochila and 

 Baltia. Distal one-third to one-half of uncus finger-like and distinctly 

 swollen behind tip; base of uncus lacldng the lateroventral internal 

 ridges in the atypical subgenus and possessing them in the typical 

 one. Harpe may be acuminate or rounded distally; subscaphium 

 sometimes present; ancllus hardly different from Tatochila and 

 Hypsochila; aedaegus not distinctly broader distally and quite similar 

 to Hypsochila and group E of Tatochila, being deeply incised both 

 dorsally and ventrally. [The groups of Tatochila are defined in a 

 second paper, in press.] 



Female (figs. 37, 38) with ductus bursae at least as long as bursa 

 copulatrix (without the accessory pouch) and colorless and non- 

 sclerotized. Other characters as described under the two separate 

 subgenera. 



Habitus: Hindwing and apex of forewing below with ground color 

 yellow and with veins broadly bordered with stripes of brown or 

 gray and with these stripes outlined with black on the margin. Hind- 

 wing on this surface with a black stripe through the middle of cell and 

 in interspace Cuo and with a series of submesial black spots between 

 the veins. 



The genus Phulia is here divided into two subgenera, Phulia and 

 Infraphulia, the latter being erected for two speices (one as yet un- 

 described) that differ greatly from Phulia in characters of male and 

 female genitalia that would ordhiarily be considered of generic value. 

 Indeed the lack of the accessory pouch of the bursa copulatrix and the
