 $ was found by Fassl on the Quindiu Pass at Machiu at 2500 m. 



L. lebbaea Fh/r. (52 d) is s(.(me\vhat similar to the preeediiig species, but the forewing is more ])oiiited /rhba,;,. 

 with the distal margin nearly straight. On the under surface the hindwnig and the a])ex of the forewing are 

 not red-brown but brownish ochre. The silvery spots on the hindwing are much reduced in number. Of the 

 first silvery transverse band only the large spot at the end of the cell is present. The 4 spots of the 2nd 

 transverse band are smaller, the last spot in j)articular indistinct. Several of the other silver dots are also ab- 

 sent. From Bogota (Oolondiia). The figure is fiom FelderV t^qw in the Tring :\ru^ 



scum. 



L. ferruginosa /!f/r. Similar to labda, but with the apex of the forewing more rounded and the iiuier jn-nu/nio^a. 

 margni shorter. The distal margin of the hindwing is somewhat ]irominent in the middle. Above brown, fore- 

 wing with a white dot l)cfore the apex and another in the disc. On the under surface of the hindwing all the 

 larger discal s])ots are not silvery, as in hilxhi, but orange, only the spot before the discocellular is yellowish 

 silvery. From Bolivia. — translucida ,SVf//-. /. /. is a form of ferniginom- in which the reddish yellow macular Iran^binda. 

 bands of the under surface of the hindwing show through weakly on the upperside also. On the upperside of 

 the forewing is placed l)efore the apex a short, indistinct red-yellow band, and beside it ]M'oxiinally 1, distally 

 .'5 white dots. Beneath the distal half of the forewing is l)right ochre-yellow with 2 Ijlack. white-pupilled eye- 

 spots between the median veins. From Bolivia. — hyagnis jonii. nor. (52(1) is a form with 3 or 4 white dots linannls. 

 before the apex and in the marginal area on the dark brown upper surface of the forewing. Beneath the basal 

 half of the forewing is light brown, the distal part ochre-yellow, with 2 dark brown, wliite-jnipilled eye-spots 

 and 2 brown spots beyond them between the median veins and with several white sjjots and dots before the 

 apex. The hindwing is light ochre-yellow, finely dusted with brown, with several brown s])()ts and broken trans- 

 verse bands. At the ])osterior end of the cell is ]jlaced the silvery spot which is common to all forms of fer- 

 rmjinosa. Bolivia. — rana form. nov. {Thieme i. I.) (52 d). Likewise a form of ferruginosd. with the underside rami. 

 of the forewing reddish brown and characterized by a broad dark brown sul)marginal band, in which 2 white 

 dots are placed between the median veins. A white patch stands before the apex and beside it 3 white dots 

 near the distal margin. The hindwing has the ground-colour likewise red-brown and 3 dark red-brown transverse 

 stripes between the middle and the distal margin. Five white dots in a curved row and the silver spot at the 

 end of the cell stand out distinctly. From Huancabamba in North Peru. 



L. jonius rrr,s7/r. (52 e). The ajjex of the forewing forms a right angle. Above brown with 4 white dots jonius. 

 in cellules 3^ — 6, the middle 2 placed nearest to the distal margin. Fringes grey. Beneath the base and the costal 

 and distal margins of the forewing are brownish ochre, the middle red-brown, distally darker, with 5 white 

 dots. The underside of the hindwing is brownish red-yellow with 3 oblique, dentate brown lines and a row 

 of black dots. The $ is more reddish brown above, the hindwing finely margined with reddish yellow at the 

 iinier margin. The forewing has 5 white dots on both surfaces. On the under surface the apex of the forewing 

 and the wliole hindwing are light yellowish grey. Instead of the dentate lines of the J there are in the ^ ob- 

 scure bands formed of brownish dusting. From Ohijiaque in the Oolomltian East Oirdillera (3000 m.), where 

 also the $ was tViund by Fassl. Flies in Ajn-il. 



L. excisa spec. nov. (52 f). The distal margin of the forewing is slightly excised below the apiex. hence e.n-i.'iu. 

 the aj)ex is prominent. es])ecially in the $. Above brown, forewing with 5 white dots, placed in a very sinuous 

 row. Hindwing without markings. Beneath the forewing is red-brown ; l)efore the distal margin a black-brown 

 band, on which are placed 5 or fi white dots. Hindwing olive-brown with 3 dark brown, almost horizontal 

 strij)es and a row of black df)ts between the 2nd and 3rd. $ considerably larger, with the distal margin of the 

 forewing rounded in the middle. The ground-colour of the forewing is reddish l)rown above, the dots as hi the J. 

 The hindwing has the inner margin ferruginous brown for a breadth of 1 ti m«i- The fringes are grey-b:'own. 

 Beneath the forewing is light red-brown with dark bi-own spots and bands. The white dots as in the ,^. The 

 hindwing unicolorous yellow-brown with a nari-ow, oblique brown stri])c across the middle, (lolombia ( Quindiu- 

 Pass, 3500 — 3800 m., Monte Socorro, 30OO m.). Discovered l)y Fas.sl. Flies in July and September.

 margin. Above brown with 2 white dots, one above the other, before the apex of the forewing. Beneath likewise 

 brown with the same 2 white dots and below them 2 black eye-spots with white pupils, the first placed proxi- 

 mally. Hindwing reddish brown, with 2 lilac transvei'se bands, partly interrupted by rust-red colour, finely 

 dusted with brown all over, with a strongly curved row of 5 to 7 white dots, often bordered with black. The 

 $ of this species occurs in 2 forms, which differ not only in the markings but also in sha])e. one agreeing 

 with the ,j, -Hhile the other ajiproaches gorti/na. The first form (52e) has the distal margin of the forewing more 

 strongly romidtd, l>ut the hindwing has the same obtuse angle as the J. On the up])erside of the forewing are 

 placed four white dots, two in cellules 4 and 5 near the distal margin and two in cellules 2 and 3 more jjroxi- 

 mally. The first dot is somewhat larger and trans])arent. On the under surface of the forewing the 2 eye-spots 

 are as in the q, but bi'oadly margined with red-yellow, and the light l)ands of the hindwing are broader ami 

 reddish grey-brown. This form was taken by Fassl at the Quindiu Pass, 2500 m., in West Colombia in Sep-
