PSEUDOPIERIS. 



The type of Dismorphia is D. lais (Cramer), a rather scarce 

 Butterfly from Surinam, which measures about two and one- 

 third inches across the wings. The fore-wings are black, with 

 a red bar from the base running along the upper part of the 

 cell, and curving downwards at its extremity. There is another 

 red band on the inner-margin, and a large red spot towards 

 the hinder angle ; there is also a yellow sub-apical band. On 

 the hind-wings, the costal area is white, the middle of the wing 

 red, and the marginal area black. 



D. amp]iio7ie (Cramer), which many authors regard as the 

 type of Dismorphia^ is very like the last species, and also occurs 

 in Surinam ; but the fore-wings are broadly streaked with red 

 at the base, and they have a yellow band at the end of the cell, 

 and some yellow sub-apical spots. 



Z. astynome, Dalman, the type of the genus Leptatis, re- 

 sembles D. amphione, but has much longer and narrower wings, 

 expanding from 2}i to 2^ inches. The fore-wings are black 

 with a short sub-costal fulvous stripe, and a longer broad fulvous 

 band towards the inner-margin ; beyond is an oblique yellow 

 band, and two yellow spots at the tip. The hind-wings are 

 yellow in the middle, shading into fulvous, bordered with black
