13. Racheospila lugentiscripta, sp. n. 
(Pl. VII. fig. 8.) 
3 .—28 mm. 
Closely allied to promontoria, Warr. (Nov. Zool. xi. p. 26), 
differing as follows :— 
Antennal pectinations shorter (rather less than twice 
diameter of shaft). Abdomen above darker. Size smaller. 
Fore wing in addition relatively somewhat shorter, the 
termen curving so as to becomea trifle less oblique anter iorly ; 4 
ground-colour rather duller green ; markings much extended, 
heavily irrorated (except terminal spots at : apex, R!, M’, and 
SM?) with blackish ; in particular, the tornal bloteh extends 
along hind margin to 3 or 4 mm. from base, is_ broadly 
bounded anteriorly by M from well before origin of M? to 
well beyond M’, and is accompanied anteriorly by some smoky 
clouding which nearly reaches costa and contains the enlarged 
dark cell-spot. 
Hind wing with both blotches broader than in promontoria, 
narrowly connected along termen; cell-dot somewhat en- 
larged ; coloration as on fore wing. 
Fore wing beneath very pale green, hind wing almost 
white ; the dark markings reproduced (except the greater 
part of the tornal blotch of hind wing), less reddish, the paler 
spots at termen white.

(Mf. G. Palmer), 2 3 3. 
As subsp. (?) dubia, subsp. n., I describe a single ¢ from 
Intaj, Ecuador (Buckley), with the ground-colour a little 
brighter, the markings rather more red (though much darker 
than.in promontoria), on the fore wing formed as in C, lugenti- 
scripta, on the hind wing above with the anal blotch extended 
on abdominal margin to one-third from base, beneath entirely 
wanting, the ground-colour above reaching the terminal line 
between R? and M'. 
14. Phrudocentra senescens, sp. n. 
(El; VEE. fie. 16.) 
3 .—30-31 mm. 
Face green. Palpus short, not reaching beyond frons ; 
pale beneath. Vertex and antennal shaft white ; pectinations 
short, scarcely exceeding diameter of shaft. Occiput green. 
Thorax and abdomen above green, the latter with white dots
