64 Mr. A, G. Butler on the 



December, 1874 ; Rio Jutalii, 5tli February, 1875 ; Serpa, 

 ISth February, 1875. 



Allied to " Homoptera'''' quadrisignata, and perhaps to 

 "jE?." zonata, previously noted under Homoptera. (See 

 p. 40.) 



115. Metalectra (?) ypsilon, n. sp. 



Slaty-grey varied with testaceous, and with well-defined 

 black discoidal spots; "reniform" crescent-shaped; a 

 large pyramidal testaceous patch, interrupted by a black 

 costal spot (so as to make a Y-shaped marking), imme- 

 diately beyond the cell of primaries; a partly black-edged 

 zigzag testaceous line from the Y-shaped marking to the 

 inner margin; a submarginal series of black and testa- 

 ceous dots; secondaries with the basal two-thirds testa- 

 ceous, clouded with sienna-reddish and speckled with 

 black; submarginal dots as in primaries; undersurface 

 shining whity-brown, with indistinct traces of the markings 

 of the upper surface : expanse of wings 1 inch 3 lines. 



Tunantins, 23rd November, 1874. 



Only one example obtained : the undersurface is not 

 unlike that Oii ^^ Homoptera '' zonata. 



''Homoptera^'' scitior = H. perpusilla may be referred to 

 Metalectra. 



MuLELOCHA, Walker. 



116. Mulelocha extranea. 



Homoptera (?) eaifrawea. Walker, Lep. Het. Suppl. 

 iii. p. 881 (1865). 



Mulelocha frontalis, Walker, 1. c. p. 1103. 

 var. Blanona dives, Walker, 1. c. p. 1106. 

 Mamiva, Rio Purus, 28th September ; Sepatiny, 29th 

 September; Rio Solimoes, 17th October; Uru^aca, Rio 

 Jurua, 9th November, 1874. 



Allied to Selenis compacta of Felder^i, which may even 

 be an extreme variety of it. 



"Homoptera"''' ocellata is allied to Mulelocha*, it cer- 

 tainly has nothing in common with Homoptera ; it re- 

 sembles, in the ocellation of the primaries, Dialithis 

 dioptica, Walker (= Cyclopteryx (?) macrops, Felder). 



* The pal})i, however, are much thicker, shorter and curved backwards 

 as in Metalecti-a ; to this genus it would be most safely referred.
