but close to margin corresponding' witli a similar spot in the 

 Leucothyris. Costa black. Inner margin broadly black. A 

 wedge-shaped black mark across the cell ; a heavy black 

 discoidal blotch extended greatly towards the margin. Three 

 transparent spots close together just beyond cell and lying 

 near costa. Three subapical spots and three marginal dots. 

 Hind wing with a very broad black transverse band ex- 

 tending beyond cell. Arowof transparent spots from inner 

 to outer margin smaller than in L. attalia, the two at the 

 apex especially so. Two or three small white marginal dots. 

 Underside of tore wing with more black than in the Leuco- 

 thyris species. The band across the cell black, not red- 

 brown, and the white marginal spots small. 



Expanse 64 mm. 



Hab. Bolivia, no precise locality. 



If 



This remarkable species, so extremely like ? Leucothyris 

 attalia except for the slender long antenna?, appears to have 

 been undetected till now amongst the series of L. attalia. 

 There are, besides the type J' in Coll. Joicey, 2 £ <$ and 

 2 ? ? in the British Museum, and doubtless, many others 

 remain to be discovered in various collections. The <$ of 

 L. attalia is very much larger than the ? , but $ and $ of 

 H. attilodes are about the same size. From the very brief 

 description of attalita } Hnsch., it is impossible to say if this is 

 the same species. But no mention is made of the different 

 shape or the long slender antennae, characters which could 

 scarcely have escaped observation. 



Scada perpuncia, sp. n. 



Fore wing pale transparent yellowish. Costa narrowly 

 grey-black except immediately above cell, where it is yel- 

 lowish. A large, solid, square, black discoidal blotch. Inner 

 margin black except at base. Broad outer margin black, 

 containing a very distinct row of white spots. Hind wing 

 pule transparent yellowish, with a large solid roundish 

 d scoidal blotch. A black marginal band (much narrower 

 than fore wing band) containing series of white spots. 



Expanse 42 mm.
