The under side of fore wing is the same as upper side, except that in the first 
four interspaces at apex are four well-defined white spots. 
The under side of hind wing is the same as upper side, except that the upper 
half of the black border at costa is tawny. The hind marginal border also 
becomes tawny as it approaches the anal angle. In the interspaces below 
upper angle, in the centre of the black hind marginal border, are six white 
spots. 
Taken near Bogota in 1896. 
Pedaliodes mariona sp. nov. 
Habitat: Colombia, Bogota district. | Expanse: 1.60 inches. 
Head, palpi, antennae, thorax, abdomen and legs, brownish black above and 
below. 
Upper side of fore wing bronzy brown, the basal two thirds of wing showing 
darker in certain lights. One eighth inch within hind margin is a wavy dark 
line, very indistinct and running from costa parallel to hind margin down to 
submedian nervure. 
Lower wing the same, somewhat dentated at hind margin. A narrow dark 
thread borders hind margin, and within that appears the continuation of the 
line mentioned on fore wing. At anal angle these two lines assume a brick 
color. All are very indistinct. Inner marginal space grayish brown. 
Under side of fore wing dead brown. Hind margin edged with a fine dark 
thread bordered on inside by a thread of brick red. One eighth inch within 
this is a wavy dark line running from costa to submedian nervure. One quar- 
ter inch within this is another line running from costa to submedian nervure, 
not touching discoidal space. The space between these last two lines is a 
shade lighter than ground color. Midway between the last-mentioned line and 
the base is another line, starting at costa and running only across discoidal 
space. 
The basal half of under side of hind wing is dead brown, the same as fore 
wing. The lines of fore wing are repeated, but more prominently, the brick 
red being tawny and broader. The line one eighth inch within hind margin is 
very wavy, the points extending baseward at centre of each interspace. The 
line one quarter inch within this is reddish brown and suffuses downward on 
each nervule in a decided manner. ‘The inner side of this line, from a point 
opposite end of discoidal space down to inner margin, is heavily bordered with 
yellow which suffuses generously upward as it approaches anal angle, the suffu- 
sion being more brownish. The space between these last-mentioned lines is
