HELICONIDH®—ITHOMIA. 
ITHOMIA CGINO. 84. 
L. Ceno. Doubleday § Hewitson Gen. Diur. Lep. Pl. 18. Female. 
Uprersipr. Male transparent purple-white; the margins and nervures blue- 
black, except the anal angle of the posterior wing which is orange. Posterior wing, 
from the inner margin near the base to the middle, tinted with yellow. Both wings 
with a submarginal row of indistinct white spots. 
UnpersIDE as above, except that the marginal white spots are more distinct. 
*Expan. 2344 m. Hab. New Granada. 
In the Collections of W. W. Saunders and W. C. Hewitson. 
The orange spot on the margin of the posterior wing is not a sexual distinction ; although it may 
beautify the males only, they are usually without it. I have seen only one example of the variety, 
which I have figured, which has the antenne (commonly black) orange from the middle to the tip. 
ITHOMIA ONEIDA. 85. 
Uprrrsipe. Female semi-transparent, rufous; the margins black. Anterior 
wing slightly clouded beyond the middle, with the costal margin and the nervures, 
to beyond the middle of the wing, rufous; the ends of the nervures black. A lunular 
black spot at the end of the cell. Posterior wing, with the nervures (except the dis- 
coidal nervule, which is rufous), black. 
Unpersipe light rufous, where black above. The costal margin of the posterior 
wing dull yellow; the outer margin of the same wing black, varied with rufous spots 
at the end of each nervule. The nervures of both wings darker than above. An- 
terior wing with three distinct white spots at the apex ; posterior wing with six large 
lunular spots on the outer margin. 
Expan. 23 in. Hab. New Granada. 
In the Collection of W. C. Hewitson. 
This and the two preceding butterflies were sent me by Mr. T. J. Stevens, of Bogota, to whose 
love of entomology we are indebted for some of the most beautiful acquisitions with which our cabinets 
have lately been enriched. 
ITHOMIA SALONINA. 86. 
Uprrrsipr. Female transparent rufous white; the margins and nervures (ex- 
cept where they cross the yellow band) brown. Anterior wing with a short oblique 
band at the end of the cell, joined to the outer margin by two broad nervules, and 
followed by a broad indistinct band of pale yellow. 
UnpeERsIDE as above, except that the outer margins of both wings are rufous, 
and the costal margin at the base of the posterior wing orange. 
Expan. 137 in. Hab. Bolivia. 
In the Collection of the British Museum. 
Very nearly allied to I. Salapia, Fig. 15, but easily known from it by the arrangement of 
the nervures of the posterior wing.
