HELICONIDM®—ITHOMIA. 
ITHOMIA TOLOSA. 72. 
Uprersipg. Male. Anterior wing, with the basal half (except the costal margin, 
which is black) brick-red. The outer half black, with five large yellow-white spots. 
Posterior wing brick-red, with the outer margin black. Both wings with a sub- 
marginal row of white spots, some of them indistinct. 
Unperstbz as above, but lighter ; the marginal spots more distinct. 
Expan. 23% in. Hab. Mexico. 
This species, and I. Virginia (Fig. 54), though almost identical in colour, are entirely and 
strangely different in the position of the neryures. The median nervures of the anterior wings of the 
two species from the base to the first nervule, differ nearly one-half in length. 
N.B. I. Virginia, Fig. 54, must be called I. Virginiana, the same specific name having been used 
for Fig. 18 of this work. 
ITHOMIA GALATA. 73. 
Uprrrsipr. Female transparent rufous-white ; the nervures and margins black. 
Anterior wing crossed at the middle of the cell by a narrow band, and at the end of 
the cell by a broad, irregular, oblique band, reaching beyond the median nervure, 
and joined to the outer margin by the second median nervule, which is broad. The 
apex with two mdistinct white spots. 
UnpErRsIDE as above, except that the base of the posterior wing is yellow, the 
costal margin, and a spot near the anal angle rufous, and the apex of both wings is 
marked by four distinct white spots.

Allied to Flora, but abundantly distinct in form and the position of the nervures of the posterior 
wing. 
ITHOMIA ITHRA. 74. 
Uprrrsipr. Male transparent crimson-white; nervures and margins black. 
Anterior wing crossed beyond the middle by a broad oblique band of black, extend- 
ing beyond the median nervure, and jomed to the outer margin by two broad 
nervules. Posterior wing, with the centre of the outer margin, rufous. 
Unpersipr as above, with most of the black rufous. Anterior wing with two 
white spots at the apex. 
Expan. 133m. Hab. Amazon.

Differs from Cymo of Hubner’s Sammlung (I. Galita, Ithomia I., Fig. 5 of this work), which it 
most resembles in the position of the nervures of the posterior wing. 
N.B. Hubner’s name of Cymo having been first used, my Galita must cease; I have, therefore, 
used it again for another species, and have accidentally altered the spelling.
