BUTTERFLIES — HERRERA AND FIELD 507 



intervenal orange streaks. Veins on undersurface of hindwing gray, 

 heavily outlined by dark brown. Similar to orthodice and stigmadice, 

 differing chiefly in having the margins of hindwing above and below 

 bordered by a distinct but narrow black line and in usually having a 

 submarginal series of dark brown or black sagittate markings on both 

 wings (on both surfaces) and, in addition, differing from orthodice in 

 having outer surface of palpi white not orange. 



Length of fore wing, 24-28 mm, (average, 27 mm.). 



Male genitalia as illustrated (figs. 37, 51). Distal portion of aedeagus 

 more swollen than in orthodice, with incision on left side deeper and 

 placed distinctly above the middle and differing from homoeodice in 

 lacking the distal and subapical ventral tooth found in that species. 

 From inversa it differs in not being constricted in front of the dorso- 

 lateral tooth (ventral view). The genitalia of 10 males were studied. 



Female: Unknown. 



Type locality: ''Huancabamba," Department of Piiu-a, "Peru." 



Additional type data: Described from male specimens (number 

 not stated) taken at 3,000 m. According to Dr. E. M. Hering of the 

 Zoologisches Museum, Humboldt-Universitat, Berlin, there is in the 

 Rober collection a single male. We consider this to be the holotype. 



Location of type: In the Rober collection, formerly in Dresden 

 and now in the Berlin Museum, as stated above. 



Method of identification: By comparison with the excellent 

 original figure. 



Synonymical notes: 



TatochilajoergensemUober, 1921. Type locality, "Ecuador." Described from 

 a single male, the holotype, in the Rober collection. This name falls to sagiltata 

 Rober as a synonym since it is only an individual variant. It differs from typical 

 sagiltata only in lacking the submarginal sagittate markings on upper side of 

 hindwing. 



Distribution: The Andes from southern Colombia south to central 

 Peru, 



Colombia: Province of Cauca, Popaydn. Peru: Department of Piura (6,000- 

 10,000 ft.) ; De-partment of Cajamarca, Celendin (2,625 m.) ; Department of Junin, 

 Huancayo (3,500 m.). 



Material studied: 11 males.
