Blandford's list is here increased by Hyposcada fallax, 

 the two Satyrines, Eresia murena, and the two moths, 

 while Napeogenes aclima alroost certainly represents his 

 unnamed species of this genus. 



In this large and interesting combination the original 

 striped pattern has entirely disappeared, and the warning 



* I here follow Butler's interpretation of Hewitson's figure of 

 Mechanitis mothone in " Exotic Butterflies," vol. i, PI. XLVII, fin. 14. 

 Hewitson's type has not been discovered, but the figure appears to 

 represent a male Melinsea, and not a female Mechanitis. Blandford's 

 list adopts the synonyms.
