LEPTALIS VII. 
LEPTALIS IDONIA. 44, 45. 
L. Idonia, Hewitson. Equatorial Lep. p. 5. 
Uprrrsipr. Male, dark brown. Anterior wing crossed obliquely by two bands 
of yellow spots: the first band at the middle with two spots the first of which is large 
and sinuate: the second band of three spots before the apex. Posterior wing crossed 
obliquely from the middle of the inner margin by a broad band of yellow divided 
into four parts by the nervures: the fourth part, which is beyond the third median 
nervule, is marked on its outer border by a black spot: the costal margin polished 
where the wings meet. 
Unpersipr. Anterior wing as above, except that it is pale grey-brown and has 
the apex ochreous-yellow. Posterior wing clouded ochreous-yellow, with the band as 
above, but very indistinct. 
Exp. 2335 inches. Hab. Ecuador. 
In the Collection of W. C. Hewitson (Buckley). 
This species does not differ from L. Arcadia of Felder on the upperside, but is very different 
below. 
LEPTALIS AVONIA. 46, 47, 48. 
LI. Avonia, Hewitson. Trans. Ent. Soc. Third Ser. Vol. V. p. 563. 1867. 
Uprrrsipe. Male, dark brown. Anterior wing with a longitudinal spot 
within the cell, a large spot on the costal margim beyond the middle, a small round 
spot below this, and a subapical spot, all pale yellow. Posterior wing pale yellow, 
polished where the wings meet; the outer margm broadly dark brown. 
Unpersip as above, except that the lower half of the anterior wing is white ; 
that the posterior wmg has the costal margin and apex broadly brown marked by 
two large oval pale yellow spots; and that both wings have a submarginal band 
of lilac-white spots, large and distinct on the posterior wing. 
Female like the male, except that the anterior wing has the basal spot and the 
small spot near the middle of the wing much larger; that the posterior wing has part 
of the costal margin yellow. 
Exp. 133 inch. Hab. Quito. 
In the Collection of W. C. Hewitson. 
In form and in the position of the spots, this species greatly resembles L. Theucharila of 
Doubleday ; in colour it is altogether different.
