 longer than in the other species, and the silvery sjiot of the forewing represented 

 only by a minute dot. 



cJ. Tenth tergite (PL XLII. f. 24, side-view) deeply divided into two lobes, 

 which are parallel, almost vertical, the sinus between them oblong ; each lobe 

 acuaiinale, the upper edge slanting, nearly straight, the lower one strongly convex 

 in middle ; sternite (PI. XLII. f. 28) divided into two long, slender processes 

 which are lying close along the inner surface of the tergal lobes, not being visible 

 in a side-view. Harpe (PI. XLVI. f. 11) produced into a long, horizontal process 

 which ends in two short points. Penis-sheath narrowed at end into a short, obtuse, 

 curved process (PI. LIII. f. 26).

c? ? . We have seen eight specimens of this species. TJiey vary inter se, and 

 are doubtless the insect which Cramer's figure was meant to represent. The 

 truncate-sinuate a])ex of the forewing and the deeply sinuate and denticulate outer 

 margin, the pale triangular costal patch in front of the silvery spot and the smaller 

 costal patch at the subcostal fork, by which this species can be recognised, are 

 characters also found in Cramer's figure. Our specimen from the Rio Cachyaco, 

 the right wing of which is slightly crippled at apex, has the outer margin less 

 denticulated, in front less sinuate, and the apex less produced than the other seven
