some new species of Satyridse from South America. 189 



Two specimens. This is a small species, with somewhat 

 pointed primaries, very dark brown above, and with the 

 secondaries peculiarly marked beneath. 



Pedaliodes cdbonotata, sp. n. (Plate X, fig. 11, $.) 



c£. Blackish-brown, primaries with a transverse quadrate white 

 patch crossing the cell obliquely, two spots beyond this (one towards 

 the apex, the other towards the anal angle) also white ; beneath as 

 above, the apex of the primaries and the whole of the secondaries 

 mottled with white, the two outer spots on the primaries as above, 

 but smaller, the secondaries with an irregular transverse W-shaped 

 mark at the apex, a spot about the middle of the costa an'd another 

 near the anal angle also white. The cilia of the primaries spotted 

 with white. 



Hah. Venezuela, Merida {ex Staudinger). 



Two males of this well-marked species were sent me 

 some years ago by Dr. Staudinger. One of the specimens 

 has, on the upper-side, a minute white dot between the 

 two submarginal spots on the primaries and another near 

 the apex of the secondaries. There are also two examples 

 of P. albonotata in British Museum, both from Venezuela, 

 one from Culata, the other from Pedregosa; these have 

 the two submarginal spots on the upper-side of the 

 primaries almost or quite obsolete. 



Oxcoschistus duplex, sp. n. (Plate X, fig. 12, <£.) 



£ . Dark-brown, an ochreous band running from near the apex of 

 the primaries and widening till it reaches the anal angle of the 

 secondaries, the band marked with a series of large rounded dark 

 brown spots, its outer margin strongly dentate on the second- 

 aries, thus forming lunules, which are bordered externally 

 with ochreous ; beneath, primaries paler than above, ferruginous 

 at the apex, the costa towards the tip streaked with white and 

 yellow, the outer margin also faintly spotted with yellow ; 

 secondaries obscure ferruginous, a transverse white line from the 

 costa crossing the middle of the cell and extending to near the inner 

 margin, the submarginal band darker than above and also bordered 

 on both sides with white, the black spots pupillate. 



Hob. Bolivia, San Jacinto {Garlepp). 

 The single example I possess of this species was sent 

 me long ago by Dr. Staudinger under the MS. name of
