The Butkrjiks of Chile. 285 



of spots on hind-wing below, and seem to agree very 

 nearly with Felder's type of pitsilla. I have figured these 

 as none of the figures cited are satisfactory. 



Then I have what seems a smaller species which has the 

 bands less distinct and the spots more so, Avhich Butler calls 

 hoisduvalii, and of which two males and a female are in 

 Mr. God man's collection from Concepcion (Walker) close 

 to Coronel, where I took the larger form above-men- 

 tioned.* Then I have a single male from some part 

 of Chile which comes very near the figure of Hahnii 

 from Punta Arenas, which looks like, and probably is, a 

 starved southern form of the same. Until we get much 

 more ample material from intermediate localities in the 

 south tiie specific identity of these forms must remain 

 undecided. 



27. Ncosatyrus nydcrapus. (Plate XIV, figs. 7 ^, 8 $.) 

 Neosatyrus nyctevopus, Reed, t. c, Plate III, fig, 2. 



I can find no other name for or description of this 

 species. What Reed speaks of in the explanation of the 

 plates as Hi^yparchia hoisduvalii is the same, but that name 

 cannot be identified certainly, and the figure Reed gives 

 of the under-side cannot I think be mistaken for that of any 

 other species. I can distinguisl) this from all others in Chile 

 known to me, by the distinct scalloped band on the hind- 

 wing below outwardly edged with white, in which Ncosatyrus 

 hahnii, which I have referred to vcsagus, resembles it more 

 than any other. On the upper-side both sexes usually (but 

 not always the male) have a fulvous submarginal band on 

 the hind-wing above not reaching either the costa or 

 inner margin of the wing. 



I know this insect from two pairs taken at Coquimbo 

 by Walker in Collection Godman, a male and female 

 given me by Mi-. Paulsen of Quillota, and three males 

 which I took on the scrubby hill -sides near Llai-Uai on 

 January 1st. It seems, therefore, to be confined to the 

 coast region of Central Chile. 



28. Neosatyrus reedii. 



N. reedii, Butler, Trans. Ent. See. Lond., 1881,p. 463, 

 PI. XXI, fig. 9, yar. ftiscesccns, id., t. c, p. 485. 

 This is a distinct species, which I did not take. It was 



* What Blauchard called Boisduvalii came from the Straits of 

 Magelhxn and is probably same as Hahnii, but I cannot recognize it 

 by the description.
