12 WM. H. EDWARbS. 



silver-centred ring-spots placed obliquely at end of cell on a brownish streak, and 

 encircled by a series of bracket-shaped characters beginning at base and continuing 

 in the form of a heart through disk, all rosy brown. 



Localities : — " Brazil ; Central America ; Mexico ; Texas ; Jamaica ; 

 Hayti," etc. 



" The Phcehis Eubule of Hiibner, Samml. ex. Schmett. ii, pi. 31, 1805, 

 represents the two common forms of C. Sennae ; we have both examples 

 from Honduras." Butler, pages 59, 60, plate 23, figs. 1-4. 



Until recently I have been unacquainted with the % of this species, 

 though I have seen many 9 s, and have for years had several in my 

 collection, from Texas and elsewhere. But in collection of Mr. Henry 

 Edwards, at New York, I saw two males alike, one of which he had 

 taken at Mazatlan, in copulation with a 5 ^^^^ J^J Texas examples. 

 The other % Mr. Edwards gave me. It is so much like Euhule, common 

 form, that it would be overlooked and no doubt has constantly been, as 

 the female is reported from many localities in the United States, This % 

 is less green, more yellow than Euhule % . The upper side is immaculate, 

 the marginal areas being nearly just as in Euhule. But the under side 

 has a reddish hue upon the yellow ; the zigzag streaks on fore wings and 

 other markings described by Mr. Butler are distinct. So all those on 

 hind wings, " the series of bracket-shaped characters beginning at base and 

 continuing in the form of a heart through disk " being clearly defined. 



A 9 sent me by Mr. Scudder, labelled " C. Orhis, Poey, Florida Keys," 

 measures 2.6 inches. Color white with a yellow tint, but not sordid. 

 Hind margin of primaries edged by a narrow brown band made up of a 

 confluent series of long spots crenate on inner side ; costal margin same 

 dark brown two-thirds towards base ; a large brown discal spot with an 

 orange streak on arc ; on the subcostal interspaces are three little brown 

 spots or clusters of scales in line near costa, and this row bends round 

 apex ; secondaries edged with double-convex brown spots which fill the 

 interspaces. Under side has the margins rosy -brown, the " zigzag bands" 

 distinct and the "bracket-shaped" spots, etc. 



Another 9 from Texas, is same size as last named, but sordid white. 

 Marks same. 



I have also a small 9 from Indian Eiver, measuring but 2.1 inch. 

 Color of the % described from Mayatlan. Below same red tint as that.^ 

 and marked just like it. I had taken this for a dwarfed Euhulr, but 

 clearly it is JSennae. 



4. Eubule. Mr. Butler gives the species thus :
