on the forewiiig the costa and apex are leddisli-browii. the proximal angle spotted \\hititih. Hindwing light 

 brown, strewn with reddish-brown, especially densely at the base and eostal margin, with a broad dark discal 

 shade joining a dark inner-marginal streak near the proximal angle. Expanse of wings: 2(i mm. ('astro 

 (Parana). 



A. inimica Btlr. <!• J)ic. (= lupvilina Plotz) (182 f) has above on the dark brown ground scarcely 

 visible, minute lighter spots in the cell, postdiscally and subapically. Beneath the forewing, towards the proxi- 

 mal angle, is broadly yellowish, the hindwing deep cinnamon-red with 2 dentate, dark discal bands and a broad 

 marginal band. Mexico to Panama, t'olombia, WMiezuela. 



A. chingachgook Weeks is above dark brown w it!i 3 or 4 ferruginmis small subapical spots and 3 larger riiiiKiiiili- 

 whitish postdise-al spots. Beneath the same, at the apex and costal margin tinted somewhat ferruginous-bro\Aii. •''""''■ 



the submedian area drab, towards the base black. Hindwing ferruginous-brown; from the costal angle to 

 the middle of the proximal margin extends a light Viand scaled ferruginous, a similar one nearer to the base. 

 \\'nczuela (Suapure). 



A. argynnis Plotz (182g) is very doubtfullyplaced here. Above blackish-brown with 3 subapical dots, arr/i/iniis. 

 2 postdiscal white, in the $ more yellowish spots and an ochreous-yellow submedian patch. Hindwing with 

 an extinct, in the $ much clearer postdiscal band of ochreous-3'ellow spots, the two middle spots of which 

 project far towards the base. Beneath the hindwing is chestnut-brown like the apex of the forewing; in the 

 disc golden yellow with a postdiscal row of silvery white spots; the spot opposite the cell and a large anal- 

 angular spot are removed more towards the Ijase, the formei' being proxiiiially bordei'cd liy a black cell-cud 

 spot. Brazil. 



A. zela Plotz (182 g) is a very chfferent species. Above yellowish-brown, on the foiewing broadly :el<i. 

 bordered with black; the median black with a spot-like thickening at the lower cell-end, another black spot 

 at the costal margin behind the cell and in the middle of the hindwing. Beneath almost the same, the inner- 

 marginal part of the forewing broader black, the spot on the hindwing almost bipartite. From Montevideo. 



A. arogos Bsd. (= mutius Plotz. iowa Scddr.) (182 g). Here follow some more species being consi- armjus. 

 dered by other authors to belong to the genus PJu/cannssa. Above like a small Phyc. viator (182 b), yellowish- 

 brown, with very broad blackish-brown margins and a very fine black cell-end streak of the forewing. Beneath 

 the forewing is more broadly darkened in the inner-marginal area, the greenish -yellow hindwing without the 

 black margin. Golf States. Iowa. Nebraska. 



A. Carolina Skinner (182 g) for which the genus Epiphes was established, looks above a little like mon- ((indiiiii. 

 ticola (182 f), with ro\uidish, yolk-coloured spots, and a cellular spot on a dark brown ground. Beneath the 

 forewing is the same, though more indistinctly marked, the costal margin is brownish-yellow; the hindwing 

 is yellow with very small blackish-brown spots. Described from North Carolina and apparently very rare. 



A. streckeri Skinn. resembles delaware above, but it is darker in its colour. Beneath very much ^ircrkn-i. 

 like poiresheik: expanse Po inch. Florida. The J stigma is a long, narrow, black line from the median to the 

 submedian, obliquely cutting through 2 internerval spaces; at the cell-end a distinct, black V-shaped spot. 



A. taxiles Edir. (182 g) has above a blackish-brown distal margin only half as broad. Beneath /n.riics. 

 the o forewing is bright yellow, at the base black, the distal margin light brown; hindwing lighter yellow, distally 

 bordered with a light brown, near the base and in the middle traversed by irregular, light brown margins. 

 Colorado to Aiizona. 



A. ruricola Bsd. is yet placed here by different authors. But as this uncertain species has a broad nn-icoln. 

 black stigma, it will probably not belong hereto. Stated from California. 



92. Genus: Augiades Hbn. 



Antennal club lather long, the hook-shaped apex slender, but rather short. Posterior tibiae with long 

 fringes and the \isual 2 pair of spm-s. The linear stigma extends from the rise of the upper median vein to the 

 submedian. The genus is preponderantly palearctic and Asiatic, but it has also some representatives in the 

 New World. 



A. librita Plotz (= hecale G. d- S.) (182 i). Above bright reddish-yellow, bordered with black, nhriia. 

 with the broad black stigma being continued into a large, subapical black spot touching the black apex on 

 the upper radial vein; veins striped black. Beneath the hindwing is especially towards the costal margin strew'n 

 with a yellowish grey, with a lighter postdiscal })aud dying away towards the proximal margin. Mexico, 

 Guatemala. 



A. aligula Schs. is placed here with a proviso, because the scent-scale stripe is parted by the lower „ligiil<,. 

 median vein. Above as the preceding, the transcellular black s])ot quadrangular and larger, touching the black 

 nuugiu in two places. Hindwing in the inner-marginal part haired olive. Beneath also like hecale, the tran.sverse 

 vein and both the median veins black, large black spots at the proximal angle, small subapical .spots distinctly 

 light yellow. The V is brown, scantily haired yellowish-red, spotted yellow at the cell-end, postdiscally and
