width of ostium biirsae and with lobes posterior to ostium bursae 

 only slightly pointed; ductus seminalis distinctly beyond middle of 

 combined length of ductus bursae and bursa copulatrix. 



Type-locality. — 'For bellera: "The Amazon." For origo: Belem 

 ("Para"), State of Para, Brazil. 



Additional type data. — C. bellera was described from both sexes 

 although the number of specimens was not stated. I designate as the 

 lectotype, the female specimen which is labeled type number Rh. 914 

 in the collection of the British Museum (Natural History) . The male 

 is apparently lost. C. origo was evidently described from at least 

 three male specimens since the localities given in the original descrip- 

 tion are Chiriqui, Panama, Panama City, and the "Amazons Valley." 

 The specimen labeled "Amazon, Para," is the one that bears a red 

 type label and the British Museum type number Rh. 909. I designate 

 this specimen the lectotype. A topotype compared by Mr. D. S. 

 Fletcher with the lectotype of origo and found to be a perfect match 

 in both maculation and color as well as the genitalia is the basis both 

 for identification and for synonymizing with C. bellera. This is the 

 male illustrated in figures 14, 20o, 95, 96. 



Distribution. — Brazil and Boh via. 



Brazil: State of Pard, Belem (Pard,). State ?: "Amazon." Bolivia: De- 

 partment ?, Guanay (1300 ft., April). 



Material studied. — One male and two females, including their 

 genitalia. 



Calycopis partunda (Hewitsou), new combination

Thecla partunda Hewitson, 1877, Illustrations of diurnal Lepidoptera: Lycaenidae, 

 vol. 1, p. 206; vol. 2, pi. 82, figs, (cf ) 685, 686. 



Male (figs. 97, 98). — Forewings above similar to those of bellera 

 in the ground color with a decidedly dull metallic purplish sheen; 

 differing from bellera in having a small ray of bright purplish blue in 

 base of forewing below 2dA and in having the dark border of hindwing 

 very wide throughout and thus restricting more to the base the bright 

 purplish blue; T\dngs below as in vitruvia, entirely lacking the red 

 usually found along inner side of postmedian band. The two syn types 

 of C. partunda were compared by Mr. D. S. Fletcher of the staff of 

 the British Museum (Natural History) with Hewitson's figure of the 

 undersurface (fig. 686). Mr. Fletcher reports that "the area between 

 the elements of the postmedian arch below vein Cui should be rusty red 

 in this figure" (in litt.). 



Length of forewing 13 mm. 



Male genitalia, as illustrated by figure 15, with aedeagus nearly 

 straight; saccus shorter than harpe; dorsal margin of tegumen (in
