 yellowish at the costal margin, at the distal margin with small, white dots. 



Whilst in the forms already dealt with the dark oblique band of the forewing was more or less distinctly 

 forked, in the following otherwise similar species it is simple, tapering to a point posteriorly. 



I. amarilla HscJt. (37 g) has very similar markings and colouring to travvUa, but the oldique band is amarUla. 

 gradually pointed posteriorly. It flies with the latter on the upper Napo. 



I. aquinia Hpffr., from Peru, is very similar to salapid, but with a simple oblique band. The 3''' median aquinia. 

 vein is not darkly coloured. 



I. ardea Hew. (38 a) is very similar to agnosia, with the oblique band on the forrwing prolonged to the ardra. 

 distal margin. It varies much in size and flies in Bolivia.

23. Genus: Calloleria Godm. d- Salv. 



Here belong a number of smaller forms which are almost all nearly allied and have mostly a red-brown 

 ground-colour, with yellow oblique band on the forewing. The neuration of the i^^ shows in the hindwing between 

 costal and subcostal on the under surface a raised ridge, as well as an indistinctly angled lower discocellular with 

 very long lower and very short upper divisions, so that it appears almost without angle ; moreover with recurrent 

 cell-veins as continuation of the lower radial. In the 5 the neuration is very similar except for the raised ridge. 



The area of distribution extends over northern South America and the Isthmus of Panama to Costa Piiea. 



C. dorilla Bates (38 a), from Panama and Costa Eica, has between the red-brown base and the black- dorilla. 

 brown apex an irregular, yellow oblique band which is connected with a yellow spot placed at the inner margin. 

 The triangular, dark spot in the middle of the cell is mostly only indistinct; on the other hand the two at the 

 end of the cell are very large and connected. In the apex are placed a larger and a smaller yellow spot, as well 

 as several yellow dots at the distal margin. The hindwing is red-brown with dark distal margin and spot at the 

 end of the cell. — The very similar azara //eu;. (38 a), from eastern Ecuador and Colombia, has lighter, narrower o;ar.-T. 

 wings. The two spots at the end of the cell are smaller than in dorilla, so that the yellow oblique band is broader 

 at the costal margin. Only one of the yellow dots at the distal margin is present here. The distal border of the 

 hindwing is broader. — tutia Hew. (38 a) has even more transparent wings with narrower yellow oblicjue band tntia. 

 and smaller apical spots; between the two appears another large, transparent, yellowish subapical spot. The 

 hindwing has narrow distal margin and a distinct longitudinal band. This form flies in Venezuela and Costa 

 Rica. — tosca Schaus, from Colombia, is a local form with yellow apex to the forewing and yellow colour between tosca. 

 the median band of the hindwing and the distal margin. ■ — chanchamaya Hsch. has similar markings to tutia, f^hancha- 

 without the yellow spots in the apex of the forewing, with stronger, black macular band in the disc of the hindwing 

 and yellowish colouring between the disc and the costal margin. It flies at Chanchamayo in Peru. 



In true C. hopfferi Weym. the yellow oblique band in the forewing is absent, the specimen figured represents hopfferi. 

 a local form, which I call onoma form. nov. (38 a). Both forms fly on the Upper Amazon; they may be recognised onoma. 

 by the red-brown colour of the large subapical spot of the forewing and resemble Ceratmia pardalis resp. tinrina. 

 The marking is otherwise similar to that of chanchamaya. The distal margin of the hindwing, especially in hopfferi, 

 is broken up into several spots. 



C. poecila Bates (38 a) is a commoner, widely distributed species from Colombia, Ecuador and the poccila. 

 Upper Amazon. It has a broad, distally dentate yeOow oblique band and at the end of the cell 2 separated, roundish 

 black spots. — callichroma is the name given by Staudincier to a form of poc(^i7afrom Ecuador with narrow, yellow callichroma.

 disc of the hindwing, which reaches to the base. — nigronascens Hsch., from the Upper Amazon, has the hindwing nigronas- 

 black excej)t the apex, which remains red-brown. 



C. selenides Weym. (38 a), from the Upper Amazon, has a yellow oblique band, widened in the middle sclcnides. 

 towards the apex, which is also proximall}' bordered with black. The broad median band of tiie hindwing is 

 continuous. 



C. porrecta Hsch., from Bolivia, has longer, narrower wings, narrow yellow oblique band, similar to porreeta. 

 tutia, and large blackish spots at the end of the cell. The hindwing has 3 — 4 sagittate spots in the disc. In the 

 blackish apex of the forewing is placed a lighter, sometimes yellow-brown patch. 



C. robusta Hsch., from Bolivia, is the same size as dorilla. The narrow, yellow oblique band is broken robusta. 

 up into 2 spots. The hindwing is narrow, with dark margin. — In fuscens Hsch, the oblique band is also broken fuscens. 

 up into spots, but its colour is the same as the ground-colour: transparent, faintly red-brown. The hindwing 

 has 3 sagittate spots in the disc and narrow, proximall}- dentate distal border.
