AMATIDAE. 



1. Callitomis mjobergi sp. n. 



This species is distinct from any known form, cf . "Wings and 

 body the colour of old gold (see Eidgeway "Color Nomencl." 

 pi. xvi). Fore wing : — Costa narrowly black, fringe of 

 outer margin black to below the tormis. The cell, cellnle Ic 

 from base to vein 2. and the bases of cellules 2—4 hj'^aline, 

 the spots 2—4 separated from the cell by black scaling which 

 extends over the discocelhilars ; cellule 6 slightly hyaline over 

 the basal half. Veins scaled with black and some black 

 scaling in cellule ^. Hind wing with the discal area hyaline, 

 extending to below the submedian to half of cellule 2 and 

 the basal part of cellule 3. Fringe black from tornns to 

 middle of costa. 



Underside fuscous, fringes and costa of fore wing black as 

 upperside. Fore wing with markings of old gold, a narrow 

 costal stripe, cellule 6 of this colour, the distal part of cellule 7. 

 slight scaling in 4, marginal scaling in 3, a marginal spot in 

 2 and lb. Post-discal hyaline spots in 2—4 well marked with 

 slight distal edging of old gold. TTind wing with proximal half 

 of costa old gold, also the proximal two-thirds of cell, a 

 stripe in cellule 4. the inner margin and distal margin as 

 above, but with fuscous scaling in cellule 2. 



Antennae black, whitish at the tip; palpi black; frons 

 grey-white ; head, thoi'ax and abdomen old gold. Abdomen 

 with segments 2-4 and 7 edged with fuscous ; anal tuft 

 fuscous. Legs fuscous, femora marked with old gold. 



9 . Similar to the (f and with ? simple frenulum. Fore 

 wing with the hyaline area below the cell broken in the 

 middle. Spots in 2~4 less hyaline. An ill-defined post-discal 

 fuscous band parallel to the margin from lb to 6. Fringe 

 of the inner margin black. Hind wing below with distal 

 half and subcostal area fuscous. Abdomen with the basal 

 half of ventral surface fuscous with only slight scaling of 

 old gold. 



Two specimens (6500 feet) resemble the cj' but with larger 

 vitreous areas. 



Length of fore wing cf 9 18 mm.
