HELICONID &. 
ITHOMIA. XVI. 
ITHOMIA ZERLINA. 94, 95, 96. 
Uprrrsipe. Male (Fig. 96) transparent white, slightly clouded beyond the 
middle. The margins (which are broad) and the nervures black. Anterior wing, 
with a broad band at the end of the cell, black. 
UnversibE bright rufous (sometimes edged with black), where black above ; the

Variety, female, Fig. 94. 
Expan. 2 to 253; m. Hab. New Granada. 
In the Collection of W. C. Hewitson.

Upprrsipe. Female. Anterior wing with a large space at the base orange, 
with a spot of white near the end of the cell; the rest black, with several longitudinal
