 Sibine nesea Kirby (not Stoll), Cat. Lep. Het., 1892, p. 539. 

 I have wrongly identitied this with trimacula Sepp.« There are four 

 specimens in the British Museum from Demerara which agree with 

 StolFs figure of fusca. Three are females. The male has rather 

 rounded wings, brown, not very dark, the red shades large, ditiused. 

 two subapical yellow dots of good size, but no subbasal ones. 

 Expanse. — 30 mm. 

 Localities.- — Dutch and British Guiana.
