cJ ? . Scaling of mesouotuiu raised to a jirominent hump. Palpus and abdomen 

 longer thau in the other species, and the silvery sjiot of the forewiug represented 

 only by a minute dot. 



cJ. Tenth tergite (PI. XLII. f. 24, side-view) deeply divided into two lobes, 

 which are parallel, almost vertical, the sinus between them oblong ; each lobe 

 acuminate, the upper edge slanting, nearly straight, the lower one strongly convex 

 in middle ; sternite (PI. XLII. f. 23) divided into two long, sleuder processes 

 which are lying close along the inner surface of the tergal lobes, not being visible 

 in a side-view. Harpe (PI. XLVI. f. 11) produced into a long, horizontal jirocess 

 which ends in two short points. Penis-sheath narrowed at end into a short, obtuse, 

 curved process (PI. LI II. f. 26).

cj ? . We have seen eight specimens of this species. They vary inter sc, and 

 are doubtless the insect which Cramer's figure was meant to represent. The 

 truncate-sinuate apex of the forewiug and the deeply sinuate and denticulate outer 

 margin, the pale triangular costal patch in front of the silvery spot and the smaller 

 costal patih at the subcostal fork, by which this species can be recognised, are 

 characters also found in Cramer's figure. Our specimen from the Rio Cachyaco, 

 the right wing of which is slightly crippled at aj)ex, has the outer margiu less 

 denticulated, in front less sinuate, and the apex less produced than the other seven
