210 EUPTYCHIA. By G. Weymer. 



witli 2 straight, fine dark lirown median lines. The marginal area lighter witli the 3 marginal lines and 5 ocelli 

 on each wing, all small and of uniform size, yellowish browai with small black centres finely pupilled with white 

 and surrounded by broAvn rings. From Baliia. Figure from Felder's tyjDe. 



maiiasses. E. manasses Fldr. (48 c). Above brown, hindwing with 2 black eye-.spots in. red-yellow rings and with 



pale-coloured pupils, the outer large, a third, indistinct, above them. Under surface dark to the 2nd straight 

 transverse line, marginal area lighter, especially on the hhidwhig. Forewing \\ithout eye-spots, hindwmg with 

 6 small ones m an angled row. From Bahia. Figure from Felder's type. 



■mvmas. E. minias Godin. (48 d). A larger species. Similar to the in-eceding. but the wings broader and the 



distal margin of the forewing less rounded, also the hmdwiaig with somewhat strongc^r excisions. Above bi-own 

 with 2 ej^e-spots at the anal angle of the hindwing, the larger in cellule 2 with double white pupil and yellow 

 ring, the smaller in cellule Ic with single pupil. Beneath yellowish brown, strongly sprinkled with dark Ijrown; 

 2 straight brown median lines, enclosing a darker median area. In the lighter marginal area are placed on the 

 hindwing ocelli, mostly bi-pupilled, the 3rd removed somewhat proximad and occasionally doul)le. From 

 Corvico in Bolivia. 



orcba. E. oreba Btlr. Size of the preceding species, the forewing more pointed, above unicolorous broMii, 



without eye-spots. Beneath somewhat lighter, distally dusted with grey, the dark brown median lines on the 

 forewing somewhat curved, as also the inner Ime on the hmdwing, while the outer forms a short angle on each 

 vein and crosses the extremity of the cell. The submarginal line on both wings forms 2 small lunules in each 

 cellule with their concavity towards the base (as is also the case in gidnnre). On each wing 5 eye-spots, the 

 1st, 2nd and 5th black with yellow iris, the others ochre-yellow, all with white pupils. In addition there 

 aire at the anal angle of the hindwing two very indistinct eye-spots in cellule 1 b. The locality of this species 

 is unknown. Butler described it from an example in coll. Kaden (now Mus. Druoe). 



erctmia. E. eremita spec. nov. (48 d) is like orebu Btlr. in size and shape, but shows essential differences in the 



scheme of markings on the under surface. The ground-colour of the underside is darker, less .sprinkled with 

 grey. .The 2nd transverse line does not intersect the end of the cell on the hindwing, but passes round it at 

 some distance in. a curve, forming a proximally concave crescent in each cellule. The submarginal line in its 

 whole course on both wings likewise forms only one ci'escent in each cellide, whilst in orebd it forms two in each. 

 The forewing has 4, the hindwing 5 ocelli. — From Marcapata in Peru (coll. Bang-Haas). 



ohvcum. E. obscura Btlr. Above unicolorous brown, beneath likeAvise brown, the transverse line beyt)nd the middle 



is irregularly curved and dentate, at the inner margin of the hindwing it unites with the submarginal line, which 

 forms only one crescent in each cellule. On the forewing there are 3 small white dots before the ajiex. on the 

 hindwing 5 eye-spots, the 2nd and 5th black with yellow iris and white pupil, the rest entirely filled u]) with 

 brownish ochre-yellow and of a reniform shape. Of these only the one placed at the costal margin has a white 

 pupil. Size 53 mm. From Bolivia. 



Necys Group. 



twcys. E. necys Godt. (= vastata Btlr., Tayg. nconympha Fldr.) (48 d). Wings rounded. Above unicolorous 



brown. Beneath finely dotted with darker, with strongly dentate median lines, a similar submarginal line and 

 5 or 6 fine white dots on each wing in the marginal area. From Brazil (Rio Grande), Colombia (Rio Agna 



runtica. Valley, 1600 m.,Quindiu Pass, 2500 m.). — rustica Btlr. ( ? = Tayg. anophthalma i^Wr.) (47g). A form of necys 

 in which on the underside of the forewing there is a small white spot beside the first white dot and the other 

 white dots on the forewing are absent, but all are present on the hindwing. From Bolivia and Huamboya 



fahiana. m Ecuador. — ^In fabiana Btlr. the median lines are not dentate, but only weakly curved and the white spot at 

 the costal margin of the forewing of rustmi is wantuig. From Macahe in tlie province of Rio de Janeiro. 



polijj,Jtcm((s. E. polyphemus Btlr. (47 g). Above unicolorous brown, beneath but little lighter, the outer median liiie 



is on the forewing twice, on the hijidwing several times angularly bent proximad. Forewing with 3 small white 

 dots before the apex; hindwing with 4 or 5 extremely small and one large, distinct black eye-spot before the anal 

 Cyclops, angle, the latter and some of the former with white pupils. From Colombia (Bogota, Carmen), Bolivia. — Cy- 

 clops Btlr. (=-am.hvacea Btlr.) (47 g) is a form of polyphemus, in which on the under surface the outer median 

 line of the forewing is not angled, but forms only a slight curve. Moreover oii the hindwing the siirgle small 

 lunules of this line run in a straighter direction. The black ring of the eye-spot in cellule 2 of the hindwing is veiy 

 broad. From Panama, Costa Rica, Peru, Ecuador. 



riuantiu.'i. £. quailtlus Guilt. (= morima Schnus) (47 g). Above unicolorous brdWJi. Beneath likeAvise brown, 



with 2 darker almost straight parallel transverse lines across the middle of both Axdngs, enclosing a median 

 area somewhat dusted with violet-grey. Submarginal line on both wings strongly undulate, the distal margin 

 d\isted with violet-grey. 6 fine yellowish white dots on the hindwing and 4 or 5, somewhat finer still, on the fore-
