Fam. LYCjENIDAi. 



62. Lyama koa, Druce, P. Z. S., 1876, p. 239, t. 18, f. 7. 



Hah. Macliachi (10,000 feet); Hacienda of Antisana (13,300 feet); 

 Cayambe mountain (13-14,000 feet). Seven examples. 



These specimens agree fairly with the types from Peru, though the 

 transverse marks of the primaries beneath are not so clearly shown ; but we 

 do not think the Ecuadorean insect is separable on this account. There are 

 several examples in the Hewitson collection of Buckley's collecting. 



63. Lycwna andicola, sp. n. 



Alis supra violaceo-cteruleis, ciliis sordide sericeo-albis; subtus griseo-fuscis 

 maculis obscurioribus albo circumcinctis transfasciatis, posticis fascia albida 

 margin! externo plus minusve parallela notata, extra eam ad angulum analem 

 ocellis tribus fulvis nigro pupillatis et argenteo atomatis ; anticarum apicibus 

 alicj[uot acutis. Exp. 1-25 inches. 



Hab. Guallabamba (7500 feet); Quito (9400 feet); between Cayambe 

 village and Otuvalo (9500 feet); Machachi (9800 feet); Cotocachi (12,000 

 feet). Ten examples. 



Obs. L. cassio et L. marince attinis inter alia anticis magis acutis hand 

 difl&cile distinguenda. 



We have an Ecuadorean specimen of this species and another from 

 Colombia. It is a close ally of L. marina, but at the same time readily dis- 

 tinguishable, not only by the more pointed primaries, but also by the smaller 

 size and narrower edging of the rows of transverse spots beneath. There aie 

 three spots near the anal angle of the secondaries instead of two as in the 

 allied form, and none appear on the upper surface. In the latter respect it 

 resembles L. cassias.
