Cosmosoma aleus, n. sp. Male.—Primaries hyaline white ; the veins, outer 
borders, apices, and a large space extending from the internal angle to the discal cell, 
_ and also a spot at the end of the cell, brown-black. The costal and internal areas 
to near apex and internal angle, also the base of wings dull orange. Secondaries 
white, hyaline, orange at base ; the costal margin narrowly brown-black, the outer 
margin very broadly so. Underneath the markings are repeated as on upper side ; 
costal margin of primaries narrowly yellow ; on costal margin of secondaries a broad

and thorax black, spotted with blue ; two orange spots on collar ; tegule streaked 
with dull orange. Abdomen black with two dorsal and a lateral row of metallic blue 
spots. The female differs in having only a small dark space at the internal angle of 
the primaries, so that the space between the third and fourth nervules of the median 
vein is hyaline and not opaque as in the male. The border on the outer margin of 
the secondaries is also much narrower than in the male.

and the dorsal portion of the second segment black ; otherwise bright red with narrow
