series of black dots in pairs ; basal area traversed by 

 broken fragments of several parallel undulated lines, 

 black-spotted on the veins ; secondaries without mark- 

 ings ; under surface creamy white ; primaries tinted with 

 rose-red towards apex. Expanse of wings, 28 mm. 



? . Altogether darker and greyer than the male ; 

 primaries varying from yellow to lilacine-grey ; the cen- 

 tral belt, a subbasal band, and the external area, which 

 is represented by an irregularly cuneiform band, lilacine, 

 traversed by chocolate-coloured lines and spots in place 

 of the blackish ones of the male, the veins being white, 

 barred with black throughout ; secondaries more or less 

 dark smoky grey ; body greyish ; under surface smoky 

 grey, the costal and apical areas of primaries washed 

 with lake-red, the apical area of secondaries slightly 

 rosy towards apex ; palpi and femora rosy ; tibite and 

 tarsi banded with blackish. Expanse of wings, 29 — 

 33 mm. 



" Valdivia, in February."— r. E. 



In the female of this species, which bears some 

 resemblance to Hoplosauris ? moesta, the palpi are shorter 

 and less deflexed ; and the second and third median 

 branches of the secondaries, though emitted together 

 from the inferior angle of the discoidal cell, are not 

 placed upon a footstalk. 



91. Pachrophylla minor, n. s. 



(? . Much like a small broad- winged P. ohelata or 

 P. linearia, but the secondaries comparatively broader 

 and larger ; as in males of P. linearia, the wings are far 

 more completely obscured by lines, and by the black bars 

 upon all the veins, than in the under-coloured female 

 represented by Blanchard, or even than the male variety 

 figured by F elder* ; the longitudinal black and white 

 streak near the external angle of primaries is well defined. 

 Expanse of wings, 29 mm. 



No exact locality recorded. 



This species was incorrectly labelled P. linearia, from 

 which species, however, it was kept separate in the 

 collection. It appears to be common, as there are no 

 less than ten examples in Mr. Edmonds' boxes. 



* The size of the secondaries in Felder's figure is exaggerated.
