EUROTO. By Dr. M. Draiut. 9f.5 



on bath sides finely bordered with black; at the cell-end there is a large yellow spot, on both sides bordered with 

 black, and before the distal margin a row of small black spots; fringes speckled somewhat darker. From Brazil. 



Ph. rezia Plotz (= metanira Mah.) (180 i) is .somewhat smaller, above the same. Beneath the veins ,■,-.;«. 

 a'-e not striped lighter, and the yellow cellular spot is absent, only the black spots arc present; the submarginal 

 row on the hiiidwing is not quite parallel to the distal margin, but somewhat deposited below the apex. Brazil. 



Ph. cunibre Schs. Above bro«-n with greyish-brown fringes, forewing with 3 small subapical and 2 post- riimiin 

 discal hyaline white spots, the lower being larger. Beneath the same, the costal margin of the forewing tinted 

 reddish, apex and upper half of the distal margin dark grey. Hindwing beneath greyish-ljrown, in the disc 

 darker, tinted reddish; at the cell-end there is a small light spot, behind it in a bent row seveial small light 

 spots, the reins and a marginal line darker. Expanse of wings: 20 mm. Petropolis. 



Ph. tavola Schs. is larger than the preceding with but one subapical dot and 2 postdiscal spots. Beneath tarnta. 

 the base of the forewing is blackish, the costal margin and apex dusted reddish. Hindwing likewise dusted reddish 

 with a very small, grey distal-marginal spot above the upper median vein. Expanse of wings: 30mm. Trinidad. 



Ph. sylvia Kaye, seems to be very closely allied to tavola. Blackish brown with 2 white jjostdisc^a! .<(//,;». 

 spots, the lower rectangular close beneath the lower cell-angle, the upper more cpiadi'angular farther distally: 

 3 subapical dots. Beneath tinted more reddish, veins lighter brownish, on the hindwing a row of oblong, gi'ey, 

 small spots. Ventrinn whitish, the 2nd palpal joint orange and black. Expanse of wings; 30 mm. Trinidad. 



Ph. ochroneura 3Iab. It is questionable whether it may be placed to this genus. Above ferruginous 

 black, hindwings rounded. Fringes yellowish-grey, on the forewing somewhat darker with 2 small subapical 

 dots and 3 yellow postdiscal spots. Forewing beneath black, the veins at the costal margin and apex deep jellow . 

 Hindwing likewise black, with ferruginous yellow veins, the proximal margin dull lilack, with a yellow longi- 

 tudinal ray, and a postdiscal row of yellow dots, before the fringes with another similar small streak. Expanse 

 of wings; 32 mm. Massauary. 



137. Geiuis: Eiiroto 0. <(■ S. 



Separated from Eutychide, by a different stigma; one stripe is situate on the median between the two 

 branches, another shorter one below it. 



E. conipta Btlr. (= geisa Mscldr.) (186 i). Brown with 2 postdiscal and 1 to 3 subapical small spots icni/ita. 

 on the forewing. Beneath as above, but lighter, forewing towards the anal angle with an indistinct small 

 ochreous band. Veins of hindwings light ochreous-yellow, at the cell-end there is an ochreous-yellow puncti- 

 form spot and in a bent row 6 behind it. Panama to Colombia and Brazil; Trinidad. 



E. lyde G. d- S. (186i) differs from cornpta above by only one minute dot between the median and /,'/'/'. 

 lower radial vein, and 3 subapical dots. Beneath the proximal and distal margins are lighter; the hindwing 

 shows behind the middle and before the distal margin lilac transverse bands, the Ijasal area is spotted somewhat 

 lilac. Mexico to Closta Rica. 



E. micythus G. ti- S. (ISfii) is above like lyde or also without any spots, very variable. Beneath iii'icutlni.s. 

 lighter, on the forewing the costal margin and apex are more reddish than the whole hindwing. the forewing 

 is lighter at the anal angle. On the hindwing at the cell-end a light ochreous-yellow dot and below it 2 or 3 more. 

 Mexico to Costa Rica. 



E. chlorocephala G. db S. (186 i) is above without any spots, with a large black stigma; head and riiiorori'iiho- 

 thorax are green, the eyes very large. The under surface is lighter with 2 or 3 small lighter postdiscal spots; '"■ 



the hindwing exhibits a cell-end dot and 2 or 3 more in a bent row behind it. Panama. 



E. oeagrus G. d- S. (187 a). Above brown with 2 very large, coherent, yellow -hyaline postdLscal ncidinis. 

 spots, and a subapical one; the costal-marginal area, the submedian area and the proximal part of the hindwing 

 is above strewn with golden yellow. Beneath as above, the costal margin, apex and hindwing strewn with 

 golden yellow, fringes ochreous-yellow. Costa Rica. 



E. etelka Schs. Dark brown, ends of fringes grey. Forewing with 2 white subapical dots and 2 very (•/,//.((. 

 small postdiscal spots. Beneath brown, distal margin of the forewing not dusted, the spots lai^ge. Hindwing 

 at the proximal margin brown, otherwise violet with light brown veins; at the cell-end there is a small lilac 

 spot, behind it in 2 rows lilac spots. Expanse of wings; 28 mm. Trinidad. 



E. coler Schs. is above plainly dark brown, hindwing at the proximal margin blackish. Beneath the inhr. 

 same with accumulations of minute yellow scales in a bent row behind the cell. Expanse of wings; 25 mm. 

 Novo Friburgo. 



E. hyperythrus Kaye is above dark reddish brown; behind the cell of the forewing there are 2 small limnrn- 

 hyaline spots, below them 2 larger ones. Beneath the marginal area of the forewing is lighter brown than the ""•"'• 



base and cell, the disc of the hindwing is reddish. Expanse of wings: 28 mm. From Trinidad. 



E. simplicissima Kaye. Above brownish-ochreous; below and behind the lower cell-angle of the ximiill 

 forewing there are 2 white, small hyaline spots, subapically 3 minute dots. On the hindwing the costal margin 

 is darker. Beneath the proximal part of the forewing is blackish, the proximal angle lighter, hindwing uni- 

 ooloured brownish-ochreous. Expanse of wings: 32 mm. Trinidad.
