p. 57: read rntuiiuK instead of craHitKi. 



Pieris elodia iornia deserta Fni/is/., tVdin Ecuador, has on the underside tlie apex to the forewing (Icscrta. 

 ])ale straw-coloured and the same cohmr on tlie upper surface of tlie hindwing. 



p. 60: e/i'iisia belongs to the genus L<'})fiiii/io/)i)i. Wlien 1 worked out the genera Pieri^i and Liptdpliohia 

 1 knew c/i-u.^/N only from the description. 



p. •)•_'.: Leptophobia gonzaga I-'mhsf., from Ecuador (Papalacta). captured by R. Haensch in the middle .sionzagu. 

 of January, is somewiuit larger than c/miic, hindwing more elli]itical, ground-colour white, forewing similar 

 to that of piiKirn, the costal more extended brown-green, the anal margin powdered with blackish almost to 

 the middle of the wing. The black distal ])order of the forewing likewise extending at the hindmargin 

 proximally to the middle of the wing , otherwise almost of the same outline as in ]>i)i(nri , especially in the 

 proximal, median incision. At the apex of tlie cell of the forewing the lilack band is absent. Hindwnig 

 witli black ditfuse basal area; distal margin yellowish with some black dots at the extremities of the veins. 

 Under surface: forewing whitish; distal liorder, as far as the black margin of the njiperside shows through, 

 suffused with dull yellowish. Hindwing yellowish white, slightly glossy, with small black triangular spot at 

 the end of the cell and yellowish basal area. ?, upper surface: forewing In-oadly margined all round with 

 brown-lilack , so that the white ground-colour is reduced to a mushroom-shaped discal ludch. Hindwing 

 yellowish, costal and anal region defined by a thin black line; the central area bearing 2 black dots. Under 

 surface as in the cf. Fringes in fioth sexes yellowish. ( )nly known to me from the description. 



Lept. eleusis mollitica Fnih^t., from Peru (Huancabamba), has a more pointed forewing and rounder w;o///>''(77. 

 hindwing than hilnia. Upper surface purer white, in the wet-season form distinctly more l)roadly margined 

 with black than in lii'liiin. Costal ])art of the forewing darker, more yellow instead of white. The dry- 

 season form appears to have a narrower i)order than the dry-season form of hcJcim, but of a deeper black. 



p. 64: Prrrh. j>i;n-]ii( alethina P>fh\. from Costa Rica, is in the female similar to the iii(i/fiilr(-2; the alethinn. 

 subapical spots are absent, the spots of the median band are sharply yellow, the black spots of the anterior 

 Itand larger and distinct, the black median band of the hindwing is absent. — Aberration? 



p. 65: read (nito(///rii instead of aiilodiiat. 



p. 67: Archuii. iiifirljifiiuis has a black forewing and a small I'cd spot on the hindwing; liat/es FriiJiHt. appears 

 to be synonymous with it. — In voHacra the three white spots on the forewing ai'e small and well separated, 

 the hindwing has two deep rose-red oval spots. — appro.rimafd has the rose-red spot on the hindwing nearer 

 to the distal margin, it is broader, uniform in colour, and divided by three veins. The yellow spot on the 

 under surface is nnich smaller. Found in the Polochic Valley. 



ji. 6S: Appias peregrina funn. imr. ('26 c), from Cuba, I consider a form oi jdinira Iloniiiiii/Ji. The prirgnnn. 

 latter I formerly regarded as an aberrant form of dnisilla because the author said nothing about the very 

 different shaiie. It is not necessary here to describe the shape, as it can be seen from the figure. I have 

 before me two acT of jirn-i))-i}iii: in these the upper surface is not glossy white, but strongly yellow, parti- 

 cularly on the hindwing, the proximal part of the costal margin ot the forewing is more strongly blackened 

 than in driiailld and the black border of the forewing is not extended to the inner angle, l:)ut scarcely to 

 the 1. median vein. On the underside the basal half of the cell of the forewing is yellow and the hindwing 

 has a subanal yellowish stripe from the base to the distal margin. — The existence of two Anu'rican species 

 of App/ati is conse(juently established. 



p. 71: read Initumis (= epimene llcir.) instead of fcutani^. The ? is black above and has on the 

 forewing a broad red median band . which gives it a resenddance to the rcd-banded s])ecii's of IL/icoi/i/is 

 Instead of troeznie Fldr. read affinis Fob. spec. nor. (2'2 d). — Cidas/irfri troezene /'/'//•.. from Colombia, is affinis. 

 above yellow, similar to I'.iimia (2'2 g), but the wings are smooth-margined, the yellow median markings are troezene. 

 broader and more narrowed anteriorly, in the cell is a connna-shaped yellow spot, hindwing with nuich 

 broader and not dentate black marginal markings. Under surface siirular to fmiii/r/s, but the white central 

 markings of the forewing are twice as broad and the dark central markings of the hindwing mucli broader 

 and pointed distally at the veins. 



p. 72: Catasticta incerta Foi/n., from Ecuador (Loja), is not really identical with iiiuiico; it is, if not incerta. 

 a separate species, at least a good local form of maiico. The upper surface is yellower, has much less black 

 marking and large white marginal spots. The ground-colour of the underside of the forewing is much 

 yellower, instead of the small grey triangular marginal spots in nninvo there are round resp. s([uare yellow 

 spots in incerta, the hindwing has more black marking and deeper yellow spots. 



p. 74: Catasticta poujadei Dixjn., from Ecuador (Loja), is very similar to clar(( (22 g), but &md\\e\\ poujadei. 

 the uppper surface of the hintiwing is almost the same, but the forewing has larger yellow spots, some of which
