 Journ. Inst. Jamaica, ii, pp. 438, 439 (1897). 



Range. Tropical America with West Indies. 



I have never seen this species in anything approaching 

 the numbers as found in Jamaica. As the larva feeds on 

 sugar-cane, it is probable that in the vicinity of the sugar 

 estates it would be found plentifully. 



285. Perichares heroni, n. sp. 



Fore-wing rich deep chocolate-brown ; the apex narrowly white. 

 Beyond the end of cell a small yellow dot. Within the cell lying 

 close but quite free from the discocellulars is a yellow spot contracted 

 in the centre and divided by a iine brown line along the fold. 

 Immediately below this mark is a wedge-shaped yellow spot lying 

 between nervures 3, 4 and a still larger wedge-shaped yellow spot 

 lies between nervures 2, 3 with its upper edge touching the discoidal 

 cell. Under-side of fore-wing with the costa and apical half of wing
