the group, ranging over the greater part of South and Central 
America. It is a rather robust-looking insect, and expands from 
two to nearly three inches. The wings are entire, the fore wings 
triangular and obtusely pointed, on account of the hind margin 
running rather obliquely to the hinder angle. The costa and 
hind margin of the hind wings form almost a right angle with the 
apex rounded off, and there is a projecting lobe at the anal angle. 
The wings are uniform brown, and the fore wings are crossed by 
an oblique bar, varying from pale yellow to dull orange, running 
from the middle of the costa to the hind margin, just before the 
hinder angle; the tip of the wing is blackish. On the under side 
the transverse band is paler, and the whole of the wings are 
beautifully striped and reticulated with brown and grey. The 
hind wings are bordered with yellow, intersected by a brown 
streak ; the lobe is marked by a black spot pupilled with blue; 
and the outer portions of all the wings are crossed by indistinct 
traces of a row of eyes with blue pupils, which are best marked 
towards the tip of the hind wings. 
Callizona Acesta, and the species or varieties which have lately 
been separated from it, are smaller insects, rarely expanding as 
much as two inches; and the hind wings are rounded. They are 
tawny, with obscure dark transverse lines, and the outer half of 
the fore wings is obliquely black, with an oblique yellow stripe 
within it, and some white or yellow spots nearer the tip. The 
fore wings are tawny, striped with black towards the base, and 
black towards the tip, with the oblique stripe and some yellow 
markings beyond; the under side of the hind wings is pearly grey 
with brown transverse bands, and is thus very similar to that of 
G. Dirce. 
The species of Hctima are smailer insects, expanding about 
an inch and a half. They are brown, with darker transverse 
lines, and there is an oblique white band on the fore wings; 
nearer the tip are generally some small white spots on a black 
ground, but scarcely forming well-marked eyes. There is some- 
times a row of similar white dots on the outer portion of the 
hind wings, which are drab beneath, with some slight transverse 
brown markings. J. Jona is glossed with purple above. 
The species of Pandora are large insects, expanding about 
three inches. ‘The wings are not dentated, but the hind margin 
of the fore wings is more or less concave. They are black, witha
