Pronophila Paladcs, Hewitson, " Entomologist's Monthly Magazine," 

 vol. 14, p. 227 (1878). 



Exp. 2-1^0 inches. 



Upperside dark rufous-bro^\ai. Anterior wings very slightly scalloped, 

 with a white or creamy band running from the costa just outside the cell, and 

 slightly obliquely as far as the lowest median nervule. Posterior wings much 

 more distinctly scalloped, with a white patch on the disk between the cell and the 

 hind margin, but nearest to the former, ending in a point on the outer side. 



Underside darker brown. Anterior wings with the white band ending in 

 a point below the lowest median nervule ; between this and the apex is a 

 curved row of four small white dots. There is also a small white spot just 

 before the extremity of the cell, and a short white dash on the inner margin 

 just before the hinder angle of the wing. Hind margin with a band of darker 

 brown, shading into the gi-ound-colour towards the anal angle. Posterior wings 

 dark brown, divided towards the hind margin by a reddish-grey band containing 

 a row of five small white spots. On the outside this is dentated ; on the inner 

 side it is bordered by a rather irregular white band running from the inner 

 margin rather above the anal angle, and ending above the middle white spot in 

 a narrow curved and pointed projection. 



Hab. Ecuador (Buckley).
