A. oenoniais Bsd. (ll'Jc) from Mexico, Costa Rica and Chiriqiii makes the impression of a small. 

 Una. little marked ipJii'S to which the under surface is also quite similar. — Una form. nov. from Panama (Lino. 800 m) 

 may be a temporal form of oenoniais. The basal colouring of the upper surface is not blue, but green (glossy), 

 occupying also a larger part of the wings. The under surface is brown and less irrorated in white. 

 cichi. A. cicla Mschlr. from Surinam, of which apjjarently only 1 specimen has become known so far, 



according to which the species has been described, seems to be allied to oenomais. It has the same shape of 

 the wings, but the inner margin of the forewings is straight. The larger inner half of the wings is above 

 of a light blue silver with a greenish shine ; in the dark border there is a small blue, subapical spot ; before 

 the small tail of the hind wing there stands a black spot with a blue pupil. The under surface seems likewise 

 to agree well with oenomais. 



hcrimcra. A. herbacea Btlr. from Costa Rica is presumably a foiin of glance (119 c). The basal jiart of all the 



wings is green and less extensive; except a green subapical spot and 3 white dots at the distal margin of the 

 hindwings, the upper surface has no marking. The under surface essentially corresponds with glance. 



(inniila/ii. A. acaudata spec. nov. (119 d) from Bolivia at first sight makes the impression of a felderi (119d) 



without tails. The shape of the wings, however, is still quite different: the apex of the forewings is more roun- 

 ded, the distal margin is almost straight, there is no trace whatever of the small tail and the inner angle of 

 the hindwing is rounded. The marking of the forewings is almost the same as in felderi, but the greenish-blue 

 colouring of the hindwings expands further distally. The under surface is generally lighter than in felderi. 

 through the wings, from the middle of the costal margin of the forewings towards the middle of the inner margin 

 of the hindwings, runs a blurred dark band ; in a basal direction from this band the wings are darker than 

 on the distal part; from below the apex of the wings to the first median vein of the forewings runs a greyish- 

 brownish band and the hindwings have a blurred greenish-blackish submarginal band in the reddish-grey 

 distal part; between the second and third median veins there is a small black, submarginal dot. 

 lieilrtiKiiiiii. A. hedenianni Fldr. from Mexico (Potrero, January) has been described as follows: smaller thaii 



glance (119 c), apex of the forewing greatly protracted, pointed sickle-shaped, hindwings without tails, but 

 distinctly angled at the third median vein. All the wings, above steel-bluish black with 5 steel-blue submarginal 

 spots, beneath of a glossy greyish white reddish brown, striated in white, with a median band being angled 

 at the third niedian vein and fading away proximally, on the forewings with a submarginal, grejdsh green 

 stripe, on the hindwings with almost disappearing black dots being interiorly marked in blue. 

 itiiirrift. A. moeris Fldr. (119 c) from Colombia is conspicuously marked in intense green. The hindwings 



have very long tails, and the inner angle of the forewings forms a pointed sickle. Whether it is a proper sj^ecies 

 or a form of morvus, we cannot decide. 

 fiihn-iii. A. alberta Druce (119 d) from Peru has a glossy brown under surface with thick dark and light 



brown spots. Not known to us in nature. According to the figure, the forewings exhibit more distinctly the 

 blue spots of the forewings which are in moeris continued from the apical district along the distal margin; the 

 sickle of the inner angle is just as pronounced as in moeris. but the hinchvings have only a short tooth instead 

 of the long spatulate tails. 

 fiiinirr. A. glaucc Fldr. (119 c) from the Upper Amazon and Colombia varies in the colouring of the markings 



above between green and blue. The $ is, as is shown by the figure, considerably different from the (J, by 

 having long spatulate tails, with a strongly falcated tornus of the forewing and a more abundant metallic cove- 



iilancouw. ring. — glauconie Fldr. are according to 0. Staudinger little marked specimens of glauce. — In felderi s-uhsp. 

 nov. (119 d) from Ecuador the greenish-blue basal area is reduced, whereas the submarginal marking of the 

 same colour is more developed. The under surface is lighter, though more contrasting, on the outer part of 



(jktucina. the hindwings greenish. — glaucina Strjr. (119 d) from Colombia is perhaps a proper species. The upper sur- 



rriilnilis. face is shown on the figure; the under surface is rather monotonous. — As centralis subsp. nov. (120 B b) w^e 

 describe, according to two specimens from Panama (Lino, 800 m. Coll. A. H. Fassl), a form being smaller 

 and more slender and having a greatly reduced, green basal colouring, particularly of the hindwings; the undei' 

 surface is much lighter (grey with a slight reddish shine) and has less dark markings. 

 )i(irila. A. florita Druce (120 B b) from Peru (Chanchamayo) is a neat little animal with pronounced Itluc 



markings. The under surface is light brown, irregularly scaled in brown and white; from the apex of the fore- 

 wing to the middle of the inner margin runs an indistinct white line. The hindwings /are the darkest at the 

 base and behind the middle, at the distal margin there are (i indistinct white spots. 



pni.rra>:. A. praxias Hpffr. from Peru is somewhat larger than glauce (119 c) with the same colouring, but 



only one plain little apical spot of the forewings below which there is sometimes another small blue spot })arted 

 by a vein, before the middle of the distal margin. Hindwing without tail or tooth. 

 ririiiui. A. vicinia Stgr. (119 d) from the Upper Amazon has sometimes another pair of blue spots at the 



distal margin. The und(!r surface resembles that of anassa (120 A e), though it is browner. The hindwing has 

 no tailed continuation, but its anal angle is extended to an obtuse point by which it is distinguished from all 

 ijihinicdes. the similarly coloured species. — iphimedes Stgr. i. I. from Bolivia, has more and greenish blue markings of 

 the upper surface and a paler brown under surface.
