 ^ scent-organ: a bent stripe <il)lii|ncly running from llie rise of tlie upper median vein to the middle of tjie 

 sul)me(liaii anil lieing parted 1)V I lie lowei- median vein. 



T. zalales a. A- S. (ISlif) is aliove uni-coloiu'ed hiai-kisli-hrow ii. willi a daikel stigma. P)eneatli -.dhilrs. 

 somewhat lighter, more i-eddish, Ihe |)r()ximal margin of tiie forewing near the anal angle slill liglifer. Costa: 

 Riea. 



T. henieterius I'/otz (IMOg) may perhaps helong hereto, since it shows the same scent-stripe, hut liniidcrnis. 

 the foreuing is somewhat longer, Ihe ajiex more ])n)duced. Tlur l)laeki.sh-br()\vn forewing exhibits one ,sn:all 

 white [)ost(liseal and subapieal punctiform spot eaeli. Beneath the same, in the disc of the forewing darkened; 

 on the hindwing there are behind the lower e(>ll-angle also 2 minute white dots. ]'atria unknown. GloDBlAN 

 mentions a coii|)le of the same species from Cuba without the wliilt^ spots; this form may be denominati d : 

 godniani jorm. nor. (/odjiiiini. 



T. sameda ll.-Schujj. (- erebina PlOtz) (■■'^'ig) is not identical with Riiiiliov cyvfd (ISoh), but samcdd. 

 owing to the ipiite different scent-organ it mtieh rather belongs hereto, although it does not quite match to 

 it ; tJie stigma (consists of a stripe between the median veins on tlie median and a, very .short part belcjw it 

 in the same direction. The species entnely' resembles hemeierins above, but it has one more postdiscal sjiot 

 between the median veins, i^eneath somewliat lighter, more reddisli brown, in tlie disc of tlic forewing black; 

 the hindwing sliows some insignificant postcelhilar accumulations of greyisli-wliite scales. Brazil. 



T. aphilos H.-Hchdff. (= obeda Btlr.) (186g) may also be ranged into this group of specnes. Above aiili'ihs. 

 blackish-brown witii one postdiscal and 3 subapieal small wliite spots. Fringes of hindwings white, on the 

 hindwing smoky. Beneath somewhat more reddish brown. Venezuela. 



T. cyrus Plotz (= duroca Plotz) (ISt^g) is placed to aphilos by Godman. Above blacki.sh-brown. cunis. 

 with a greenish reflection on the body and base of the wings, and 2 small white ])ostdiscal spots. Beneatli the 

 same, but somewhat more reddish. Rio de Janeiro. 



T. niisera Hchs. may provisionally be inserted here. Al)ove dark brown with blackish fringes and a niincm. 

 long, narrow scent-stri])e below the cell between the median veins and from there twice interru]>ted to the siili- 

 median. Beneath brighter brown, the hindwing with 2 small yellow spots behind the e(>ll, one behind the uppei', 

 the other behind the lower cell-angle. Expanse of wings: 40 mm. Petropolis. also in Trinidad. 



135. Genus: Kiity chide G. <c .s'. 



Antennae half as long as the costal margin. (Otherwise very closely allied to Cobahis fiojn which if 

 differs by the lower median vein of the forewing rising before the middle of the cell; hindwing analwaids pro- 

 duced. The stigma is composed of a very much extended, acute-angled part between the bases of the two median 

 veins, a longitudinal .stripe below it and a third similar one on the submedian. 



E. cingulicornis H.-Schdff. (180 g) is above brown. l)ehind the cell of the forewing there are 3 white <-i,i(/nli(:or- 

 spots in a straight row . sul)apically there are 1 or (in southern sjjecimens) 2 small spots, and there is often also 

 a celhdar sjjot. The hindwing exhibits 2 small spots behind the cell, which are absent in southern specimens. 

 Beneath the costal margin of the forewing is reddish-yellow in the basal half, the anal angle light grey; tlie 

 hindwing is in the basal third lilac-whitish grey, distally red-brown. Antemial club at the base curled yellow. 

 Guatemala to Brazil, also in Trinidad. 



E. complana H.-Schdff. (= midia Hen-., gma Plotz, favetta Plotz) (i8()g. h) is much larger; on the n>i,ii,!)iii 

 forewing there are oidy 2 yellowish jiostdiscal spots and 3 subaj)ical ones; the hindwing is mii-coknned. Beneath 

 the same, scarcely lighter, the hindwing with 1 or 2 yellowish dots behind the cell. Head and bcdy are bailed 

 greenish. Mexico to ^"enezuela. 



E. ochus G. d- S. (18()h) is smaller, with smaller spots, the green (ui the body scarcely tiaceable; i><liii.s. 

 it also greatly resembles Rinthon cynea (185 li), but it is separated by the scent-organ and the absence of the 

 light anal angle on the forewing beneath. Mexico to Guiana and the Amazon, and from Trinidad. 



E. orthos G. ft- *S'. (186 h) is still smaller than ochus, the' subapieal dots are absent. On the under "/•//"«. 

 surface the proximal margin of the forewing is lighter, the stigma above much less developed and finer. Head 

 and body are greenish, the abdomen beneath white. Panama. 



E. lycortas G. d: S. (186 h) re.sembles oc//«-s al)ove, but it differs above by a submedian. oblong, white li/mrla.-:. 

 spot of the forewing. Beneath very different, the submedian spot extraordinarily large, greyish-white; co.stal 

 margin chestnut-coloured, in the apex A\ith an oblique silver}- line, the distal margin lighter grey: on the lund- 

 wing the costal margin is broadly chestnut-brown, the distal margin strewn with a lighter grey, with an indistinct 

 light grey band from the apex to the cell-end. pro.ximal margin puijile-brown. ^Mexico.
