the red patch in the cell of the primaries beneath broken 

 by several transverse metallic spots, a character common to 

 the females of most of the allied species. The submarginal 

 metallic line is very narrow. The series before me con- 

 sists of ten males and one female. I also have three male 

 specimens from Corumba, in Brazil, which perhaps repre- 

 sent another form ; in these the red spot on the primaries 

 beneath is dentate on the upper edge.

 lit supra sed fascia multo latiore, linea argentea absente sed macula 

 in niargine interno posita.

Hah. Colombia, Bogota. 



This is a northern form of C. cn'cias, Hew., ditfering from 

 it in the more arcuate fascia, which is specially noticeable 

 in the female. I have one pair only.

Charis dulcinfichlia, Schaus, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. xxiv,

A figure of this species is given from the specimen from 

 Paran:\, presented by Mr. Schaus to the British Museum. 



MoNETHE MOLIONE, sp. u. (Plate XXI r, fig. 4, ^.) 



(J. Alis ocliraceis, anticis costa, apice late, et niargine externo 

 nigris, macula elongata transversa anguluni apicalem versus quoque 

 ocliracea ; posticis niargine externo nigro ; subtus lit supra, sed 

 posticis costa, linea angusta breve basali et altera margini interno 

 subparalleli, nigris ; corpore sujjra ocliraceo, nigro lineato ; pedibus

Hah. E. Peru, Pebas [HaJincl, c-e Stax dinger). 



A very fine species, differing from M. albertus, Feld., 

 and its allies in the large extent of the ochreous colour on 

 both wings. The antenna are long and very gradually 

 thickened towards the apex, so that there is no distinct 

 club. One specimen.
