H. zelotes Hew. (178 b) has longer hindwings than orcin.us witli a large, creamyvvhite discal spot; :(h4es. 

 in the marginal area, being covered witli long, greyish-yellow liair-scales, there are black subniarginal spots. 

 On the forewing the similarly arranged hyaline spots are almost three times as large as in orcinus. Brazil 

 (Sao Paulo). 



H. aberrans spec. nov. (17Sb) is on the whole somewhat like zelotes. the discal spot of the hindwing abemins. 

 nnich smaller and rounded. On the forewing the cellular spot and the spot below it form a broad band, 

 the iinier-marginal spot is reduced to a dot; the other hyaline spots are quite similarly arranged. The ab- 

 domen is white-haired as in zelotes, as well as the proximal margin of the hindwing. Described according to 

 1 r^ from Teffe of the (V)ll. Seitz.

Genus Ate. 



Insert after .4. proxemis (173 g) on p. 889: 



A. canace Scks. (189 a). Similar to proxenus; the blackish-brown wings exhibit only subcostally in ntnace. 

 the middle one minute hyaline dot and 2 subapical ones, the lower of which is removed proximally. The 

 distal margin of the hindwing is broad blue from the ujjper radial vein to the proximal margin; coital margin 

 and apex dull blackish-brown; a similarly coloured arcuate stiij)e from the lower median vein to th 

 angle. Expanse of wings: 23 nnn. Carillo (Oosta Rica).

Genus Hellicia. 



Insert after P. dimidiula (Hie) on p. 892: 



P. olinda <S7/-(/. Distinguished from dimidiald by the palpi being also beneath dark and by quite "liu'la. 

 black legs and tarsi. From Olinda (Brazil). It is (hjubtful whether it is a separate species. 



Genus t-yclosaeiiiia. 



Insert l)et ween C. ehlea and laihnea (17-li) on p. 895: 



C. subcaerulea Schs. is likewise allied to jacobus and elelea, easily recognizable by the upper surface unhcaemlea. 

 showing metallic lustrous green costal margin, distal margin and veins in the apical part on a greyish-brown 

 ground; marking as in jacobus, but without the 3 subapical spots; the discal eye-spot contains 2 bluish- 

 white pupils. Beneath the forewing shows a green reflection, at the proximal margin it is grey. Hindwing 

 of a bright blue, at the costal margin, apex and fringes brown. Expanse of ^\•ings: 31 nnn. (losta Rica. 



Genus Echelatiis. 



Insert aftei' E. sempiternus (175 a) on p. 890: 



E. depenicillus Strd. is easily separated from sempiternus and wtrius by the anal jKirt of the hind- dcjDnUil- 

 wing beneath not being lighter. Described according to a ,^ from Oolonibia. Probably the insect corresponds '"*■ 



with robigns Plotz (175 a). 



E. lucina (S'c//s. (192 a) is easily sejjarated from the other species by its metallic lustrous green head and Imina. 

 collar. The blackish-brown forewing with a purple reflection exhibit flark antemedian and postmedian nebulous 

 bands, the latter being bent above the lower radial and from there straight vertical to the j)roximal margin. 

 Hindwing similar, but less reflecting purple, more intensely' "niy in a stripe below the cell from the base 

 to the distal margin. Beneatli ligliter lirow ii «ith a whitish-grey base of the proximal margin. Expanse 

 of wings: 37mm. Ouapiles (Costa Rica). 



Genus Myloii. 



Insert after M. hissia Hew. (175 c) on \^. S97: 



M. puncticomis t^trd. differs from the allied siiecies by only 3 subapical dots. Ground-colour dingy iiiimliror- 

 white, dusted with grey and brown, only in the discal area of a jjurer white. Basal area black, with yellow 

 hairs and scales, distinctly dentately defined with a black cell-end streak, ])ehind it blackish with 2 or 3 

 quite blurred lighter macular bands; in the cell with a small dark .spot and below the transverse vein traces 

 of a grey blurrt'd band resting vertically on the proximal maigin. Marginal area of hindwing 2 mm broad 

 light greyish-brownish, with a darker marginal line and similar small subniarginal spots, before them another 

 darker, blurred, broken transverse band. In the middle besides 2 grey lines. Beneath white «ith fine dark 

 transverse streaks corresponding with the markings above. Antennae black with light dots. Expanse of 

 wings: 30 nnn. According to 1 (^ from Colombia.
