94° On new Races and Aberrations of Heliconius. 
This subspecies of cydno strongly recalls cydno broneus, 
Stich., from Peru and Ecuador. It is practically identical on 
the fore wing and only different on the hind wing by the 
absence of white spots on the margin. Such a form might 
easily occur with broncus as an aberration ; but, on the other 
hand, it might as likely occur as a race and be comparable to 
cydno zelinde, which is practically an identical form, but 
white-banded instead of yellow. This latter occurs as a race 
in some western valleys of Colombia, such as the Rio San 
Juan and Rio Dagua. 
Heliconius elevatus perchlora, subsp. n. 
Fore wing above black, with a large part of the basal half 
of the wing red. On inner margin a red streak detached 
from the large red area, Adjoining the red area within and 
above the cell is a large roundish yellow discal area extending 
down beyond vein 2, where it is suffused with black scaling. 
Hind wing with streaking rather heavier than in elevatus 
elevatus. 
Hind wing below like elevatus elevatus, except that the 
peculiar streak inside the costal vein is more strongly yellow 
and considerably extended. 
flab. Bolivia. 
The locality is very vague, but the specimen suggests that 
its origin is correct, as it matches LH. melpomene penelope, a 
typical Bolivian form.
