GALLIONA; CORACHIA; NYMPHIDIUM. By Dr. A. Seitz. 709 



E. borsippa Hnr. from the Amazon is Ijriglit oi-aiigc-rcd, almost miniate: tlie rj has a l)lafkisli-hrn\vn l>ors'ippa. 

 apical part of the forewing and from the eosta of the hindwing there extend the begianings o" hlac-k hands ending, 

 however, incompletely in the centre of the '\ing. The under surfai'e exhibits Ijjuish-grey bands alternating 

 wiHi reddisli-grey ones. 



E. charessa Stich. is estal>lished aeeoiding to a .^ from tlu> Rio Jurna. Sni:ill ( \2 nnn); shape of (he clKin-Md. 

 preceding, forewings red-t)ro\vn. with black sj)ots. similar to petith":! : in front of the border a series of black, 

 oblong, small spots being proximally bordered in light. Inner marginal area grey as far as the submedian. 

 Hindwings white, costal area and a])ex greyish-brown, at the border a fine black line, and in front of it small 

 black spots. Unknown to me. 



E. borsippina BtJr. A small species; oidy the $ known. On a dark-brown ground the forewings exhibit iiar.^ijiiiiih 

 3 incomplete rt'd-yellow macular bands before, in aiul behind the centre and a complete stripe before the bordei'. 

 Hindwings light yellow, costal ]iart and ajiex brdwn, in front of the Ijorder some small blak s})ots. From the 

 Rio Tapajoz. Is not before me. 



E. elpinice (lod)n. {,^ 142 f, $ 138 g). As the ^J which was hitherto unknown and which I therefore rlphiicr. 

 likewise figure, shows, a real Erhenais. Under surface cjuite similar' to that of alecfor-,^. $ with obtuser wings, 

 the ring-marking not so distinct. Bolivia, Colombia; the figured q from the Rio Songo (Coll. Fas.sl). 



E. aemulius F. (= geris Dbl., hemixanthe FIdr.) (138g). Similar to the preceding species, lai'ger, "niiiil'iiis. 

 and recogni'/,al)le by the broad orange distal l^and of the hindwings passing over to the anal angle of the fore- 

 wing. South Brazil. In Rio temporally coziimon, but local (e. g. near Botafogo). — adelina Btlr. (138g) from ndrii 

 Costa Rica to Ecuador has the hindwings, except the base, jjale yellow \\hi(h colmn' t'xtends far on to the 

 forewing. 



86. Genus: C^allioian Bat. 



This genus is as little separable from Lemonias as the preceding. Its resemblance with Aricoris accepted 

 by Butler only refers to the exterior. The (^^ do not resend)le much the Lenwnias- owing to the large white 

 discal spots on both wings, but anatomically there is hardly any difference. The Cnlliona are of a still more 

 slender structure than most of the Lemoiiias, the palpi ])roject greatly also in the cj. the antennae are scarcely 

 thickened at the ends; the (^^ with white discal orbs, the 5?< a** fa,r as is known, with a yellow oblique band 

 of the forewing. The butterflies are apparently very rare. 



C. irene ir?r. (138 a). On each of the 4 black wings of the (^ a white, roundi.sh disc, the basal part 

 of the hindwings scarlet . Under surface greyish-))rown with 4 white discs as above ; in the basal part of the wings 

 dark tran.sverse bands. The $ looks entirely different, resembling somewdiat Mesene mgaris-'^ (13ii). but 

 the ground-colour is lighter brown and makes the same transverse streaks the o also has appear in a dull shade 

 Lower Amazon; Para, Humayta. 



C. siaka//e«'. (138 a). J similar to ireue. larger, hindwings along the costa red, along the border blue. 

 Beneath in the l>asal part of the hindwings scarce dark small spots. [ do not know the ':'. Fi'om Maipures on 

 the C)rinoco and Amazon. 



C. latona Hev. (138 a). The (^ has the forewings similar to the preceding, but it is smaller and its j„i,in<i. 

 hindwings have not a white, but a scarlet inner-marginal stripe. From the Amazon. — In delia Sfich. the white drlin. 

 discal spot of the forewing is much smaller, the whole hindwing, except narrow margins, red and beneath there 

 are no dark transverse streaks. Known to me only from Stk'Hel's figure and d(>seri]ition ; from Venezuela. 



87. Genus: C^oracliia Schs. 



This genus was based on a single 5 which greatly aj)proximates some $.5 of Leiiiotiia!^. It ha-s. however, 

 a more strongly curved margin of the forewings and short, knobbed antennae. The upper median vein rises 

 close at the lower cell-angle, the lower radial comes out of this, the cell-end vein is proximally convex, some- 

 what oblicpie. The hindwings are long, almost as long as the forewings, whereby nearly the exterior of an 

 Inflian GcryduA (Allot inus) is created. 



C. leucoplaga Schs. (= tablazonis Strd.). $ quite similar to the $ of Lemoniiis argenismi (137 i). but ininipiinia. 

 the white band of the forewing is broader with bulging margins and traverses the wing transversely, not obli- 

 ({uely. In the J" this band of the forewing is rejilaced by a faded, grey, costally parted fliscus-spo( . Cos).), I^ica.. 

 certainly rare. 



88. Genus: X^'iiipliuliiiui F. 



The uniformity of the veins argues against the brancliing-off of further genera such as Peplia llbii.. 

 Nyinnla Bsd., etc. which have recently been again based upon differences in the palpi and the male exterior 

 genit;ils. If the well done figures in the ,, Genera In.sectorum" are correct. I cannot findan\' essential difference 

 between the palpi of Pepliii and Nymuln, and the clasping-organs vary also considerably in different undoubted 

 Nymphidinm. In the veins 1 here is no differene. Some Nyinphidiion are obviously secondarily transformed 



')ka.
