Genus X. PAMPHILA. 



Pamphila Fabricius. 

 Hesperia Boisduval. 



C^LiENORRlIINUS, CyCLOPIDES p., StEROPES p., AUGIADES, ThYMELICIUS llublier. 



Head very broad, especially in the males. Thorax very robust. Abdomen as long as the hind wings. 



Labial Palpi porrected, short, densely hairy, wide a]>art ; last joint very short, nearly naked and exposed. 

 Antenna; of moderate length, terminated by a thick, nearly straight, club, which is generally furnisiied at the tip 



with a short slender hook. 

 Fore Wings alone erect in repose. Apical margin convex, especially in the females ; fringe entire, not alternated 



in its colours ; disc, in the males of many of the species, marked with an oblique velvety patch of scales. 

 Hind Wings broadly triangular; outer and anal angles rounded, slightly truncated near the anal angle; margin 



entire. Discoidal vein nearly obliterated. 

 Fore Legs Avith a spur in the middle of the tibiaj. 

 Hind Legs with the middle spurs of the tibiaj distinct. 



The general colour of the wings of the species of this genus is cither tixwny orange marked with brown, or brown strongly marked 

 with orange; the colour being generally so disposed as to leave a row of spots near the apical margin of the fore wings; the colours 

 in the female, moreover, are brighter than those of the males. Their flight is very powerful, owing to the very robust form of their 

 bodies, and the strength and form of their wings, which are rather short and somewhat pointed at the tip. In their larva state, they 

 generally feed u])on gra^^ses. 



The short thick club of the antenna;, terminated by a short slender recurved hook, and the minute size of the last joint of the labial 

 palpi, are the chief characteristics of this genus, in addition to the velvety oblique streak in the wings of the males of many of the 

 species.
