Genus 25. PAEAMECERA, gen. nov. 



Alis omnibus supra dense pilosis : anticis costa convexe angu- 

 lari ; margine externo leviter sinuato ; margine interne paulum un- 

 dulato ; vena prima disco-cellulari concava, brevi ; seciinda longiore 

 subobliqua ; vena mediana angulariter irregulari ; venis ad basin 

 bene tumidis : posticis costa convexiuscula, margine externo bene 

 sinuato, margine interne ad angulum ani valde excavate ; venis velut 

 in Euptychia, magis autem regularibus. 



Corpus Ian are, breve ; caput oculis cirratis, palpis magnis valde 

 pilosis, articulo apicaU angulariter projeeto ; antennis brevibus, clava 

 subpiriformi, subtus excavata. 



Coloribus generis AmeeercB, Butl., cellis autem discoidalibus magis 

 ad illas Eupti/chice, Hiibn., approximantibus. 



This genus bears a great general resemblance to the genus Amecero. 

 It, however, differs entirely in the form ol the discoidal cells, the form 

 of the hind wings, and the palpi ; these are somewhat similar to 

 the palpi of MijcaUsis, of which a figure is given in the ' Annals 

 and Magazine of Natural History,' Jan. 1867. It is allied to Euptychia, 

 but the hind-wing cell is more regular, which brings the genus 

 nearer to Heteronymplia. The antennae also are shorter, and more 

 like those of Amecera ; and the densely hairy upper surface of the 

 wings soparates it from all the rest of the Satyridce.
