Descriptions of New Species of Rhopalocera. 247 
Theope polimela, sp. n. 
T. virgilio similis sed anticis colore ceruleo magis extenso angu- 
lum analem fere attingente, subtus vix differt. Exp. al., 1-75in. 
Hab. Cotomsta (Mus. Staudinger); Cauca Valley 
(’. H. Wheeler). 
Two male specimens of this Theope differ from all those 
of that sex in our collection from many localities in 
Central America. The greater extension of the blue of 
the primaries towards the anal angle seems sufficiently 
marked to justify the separation of this southern form. 
Theope mania, sp. n. 
2. T. eleuthoni similis sed alis cerulescentioribus anticarum apice 
minus acuto; posticis (preter costam nigram) omnino ceruleis, 
angulo anali minus producto: subtus pallidioribus anticis ad 
basin vix rufescentibus, posticis maculis submarginalibus evanes- 
centibus. Exp. al., 1-9 in. 
Hab. Mexico, San Blas (W. B. Richardson). 
This is a species of T’heope, having a dark line across 
the undersurface of both wings. We have as yet received 
only a single female which was taken by Mr. Richardson 
at San Blas, in Western Mexico, in May, 1889. 
Theope eleutho, sp. n. 
Alis fusco-nigris ; anticis ad basin viridescenti-ceruleis, costa 
omnino nigricante maculis tribus subapicalibus in linea obliqua 
viridescenti-ceruleis ; posticis area interna et area discali virides- 
centi-ceruleis hac venis nigris intersecta, costa late nigricante, 
margine interno albicanti: subtus glauco-fuscescentibus linea 
communi ab angulo anticarum apicali ad medium marginis interni 
posticarum saturate fusca, anticis ad basin rufescentibus, maculis 
duabus in cellula albis, posticis maculis parvis septem submar- 
ginalibus nigris; altera alba ad cellule basin; corpore supra 
ceruleo subtus alis concolore. Exp. al., 2°2 in. 
Hab. Panama, Chiriqui (Zvdtsch, in Mus. Staudinger). 
Dr. Staudinger has sent us a single female specimen of 
this Theope, which differs from all others in our collection. 
It belongs to the section having a common line on the 
underside running from the apical angle of the primaries
