broad to the inner margin of secondaries, which is also yellow; a sub- 
terminal darker yellow line, not reaching costa of primaries, slighth^ 
interrupted at vein 2, preceded on secondaries near costal and inner 
margins by some silverj^ scales; a marginal silverj' line; fringe brown 
divided b}' a darker line. Underneath the yellow markings are still 
broader and there are no silver}^ scales on lines.

CALYDNA ZEA, new species. 
Diagnosis. — Male. — Primaries, black; a few bluish scales on outer 
margin; some transpai ent opalescent spots; a small one in middle of 
cell; a large quadrate spot at end of cell; a small spot beyond end of 
cell above vein 8, and another smaller one beyond it between veins 7 
and 8. Secondaries black; the outer margin broadly pale blue con- 
taining some small black spots. Underneath dark brownish gra} ; 
yellow streaks and spots on costa of both wings. Primaries, some 
black spots in cell and below it; the median space between cell and 
submedian shaded with dark red; an outer row of black spots parth' 
shaded with dark red; subterminal smaller black spots partly shaded 
with white. Secondaries with black spots as on primaries, and reddish 
mottlings above the cell. 
Female. — Primaries, the small white spots as in the male; the large 
spot at end of cell smaller and irregular; wings dark brown; the costa 
with thick light red stri«; inner, median, and outer irregular black 
bands edged with dark red; large subterminal dark red spots contain-

spot at apex, and followed b}" a dark brown line. Secondaries, a mar- 
ginal green line followed b}' dark points between the veins. Under- 
neath dark violaceous gray; a darker wavy outer line; some basal 
spots, and median line, geminate in cell of secondaries. Primaries,
