Cramer’s figure of C. Actoris evidently represents a 
species more nearly resembling in its markings our (0. 
Beltiana than the handsome insect existing in collections 
under the name Actors, and figured by Hiitbner. I have 
not seen a specimen with the numerous large white spots 
towards the outer margin of the hind-wing, and without 
a trace of a red submarginal line, as represented by 
Cramer. 
Found throughout the Amazons, but rare. 
7. Cremna Melampia, un. sp. 
3g. Expanse 1” 10’. <A large robust species. Fore- 
wing with the costa very slightly arched, apex produced, 
but the outer margin very little bowed outwards ; hind- 
wing with the anal angle acute, prominent. Above, dark 
brown, with white marks in the fore-wing only, namely, 
four lines (two interrupted) across the cell, two between 
the cell and hind margin, and two rows of spots across 
the apical portion, those nearest the costa alone being 
clear white. Beneath, clear hght-brown, with numerous 
short slender lines, forming irregular belts across both 
wings: all except the submarginal row have, each on its 
inner side, a large black patch. Body dark-brown above 
and beneath ; antenne black, the stem ringed with white. 
‘Bahia. In my own collection. 
Westwood, in Doubleday and Hewitson’s Genera of 
Diurnal Lepidoptera, enumerates two other species under 
the genus Cremna ; of these one, C. Orpheus, is a Lemonias 
or Anatole, being totally different in neuration from the 
group to which Cremna belongs; the other, C. Thasus, 
Cramer (Pap. 333 I.), I know only from Cramer’s 
figure ; it may be a Cremna, or a species allied to Charis 
Trochilia and Hisbon. |
