spot; npperside of mill- anil liindtibiae dirty wliito; external spines of first protarsal 

 segment ])rolonged as in achemon; first hindtarsal segment a little shorter tbau 

 tibia, longer tlian segments 2 and 3 together ; short apical hindtibial spur about 

 one-third the length of long one, this a little longer than second tarsal segment. 



Wings, Kppersicle. Forewing : distal margin not convex, faintl}' scalloped ; 



11 black basal patch at inner margin, separate from the black inner-marginal 

 antemediim jiatc.h ; this latter reduced in size, triangular ; a double line between 

 the two patches, two other lines more widely apart, converging behind, the 

 proximal one continent with the antemedian patch before reaching inner margin, 

 the other reaching i)atch at its npi)er proximal corner; no stigma; discal lines 

 forming at costal margin a sharply marked semicircle, proximal discal lines 

 conspicuous, fourth line also so beyond M' ; brown subapical costal ])atch reduced, 

 indistinctly covered with a postdiscal band which extends from hinder margin 

 frontad, posterior portion of this band corresponding to the donble patch of 

 satellitia, but being much broader ; greyish marginal border dentate, including a 

 dentate submarginal line ; a conspicuons buff line from lower angle of cell along 



M' to near distal edge of wing, vein M- also butf, except at base and aj>ex. • 



Hindwing : stigma represented by a minute vestigial dot ; black discal area 

 extended to M' and abdominal margin, interspace between it and black submarginal 

 band fawn-colour, with two sharply marked lines ; black sulimargiuiil area SC" — 

 M' narrower than in mtcllitid, not reaching costal margin, lilack spots M' — SM- 

 contignous. 



Umlermde brick red, rather brighter than body. Basal area of forewing pale 



drab-brown, blackish behind ; a discal line crossing snbcostals at fork, brick red 

 in front, blackish behind, followed by traces of a second line ; a bn)wn distal 



border, triangularly dilated behind R^, here nearly reaching first discal line. 



Hindwing drab-grey at base, three discal lines, second faint, a brown distal 

 border, which is dilated before middle. 



S. Tenth tergite acuminate, not very sharp, the extreme tip being ronndrd- 

 trnncate. Clasper without patch of bristles on inner surface ; harpe (PI. XL VII 1. 

 f. 3) of the satell/tin-type, but the horizontal part of tiie ])rocess broader and more 

 flat, resembling somewhat that oi nuchcmolits, hook as in lidft'U/t/a. 



Length of fm-ewing : cJ, 48 mm. 



Hub. Argentina, probably Tncuman. 



One tS in Mus. Tring, received from Herr Neuburger, in wliose honour the

Philampelus elisa Smyth, Eid. News xii. p. lOli. t. 4 ( $ ) (I'JOI) (Cuernavaca, Mexico). 



(J ?. Similar to small specimens of J'/i. satellitia. Second and third segments 

 of abdomen with black lateral jiatch. First segment of hindtarsns in cJ as long- as 



tibia and as segments 2 to 4 together, wliile it is much shorter in isatellitia. 



Forewing, above, more grey, tvifhout stigma ; costal semicircle at apex of cell very 

 sharply marked, heavier than the first discal line ; apex more produced, the distal 

 margin being in front more concave than in sati'llitia ; a black snbbasal jialch at 

 inner margin sejiarate from the rliombiform submedian patcii ; the latter obviously 

 produced basad at (SM'), the border darker than the centre of the patch ; inner 

 edge of wing not pinkish. Hindwing : as in satellitia, no discal line from black
