vules), the patch almost invariably extends half-way to the cell, some- 

 times close up to it. 



The under side of this species, both in specimens from the south 

 and from the north, and especially in males, is often almost wholly 

 devoid of markings, excepting the spots at the tip of the cell in both 

 wings ; and generally the species bears so close a resemblance to 

 C. Drya that it seems probable that these two are identical. If they 

 are distinct, as given by Butler, the specimen from Guatemala, upon 

 which I based my remai'k on thn distribution of Eubule in my Sys- 

 tematic Revision, may belong to Drya. 



3. Callidryas sennse, which he also gives from Texas. Other 

 localities given by Butler .ire Rio Janeiro, Para, Bahia, Columbia, 

 Santa ISIartha, Venezuela, Triuichid. Honduras, west coast of Mexico, 

 Jamaica, Hayti, Folochic VnlU-y and Saii Lorenzo. This is doubtless 

 the C, Marcellhia of Edwards' list, although the reference to Boisdu- 

 val and LeConte's plate should have been given to the previous 

 species. Females of this species (which occurs also in Cwba, having 

 been given as the female of C. Orbis by Poey) were taken by Dr. 

 Palmer on the Florida Keys in souie numbers; but J doubt if it 

 occurs in Northern Florida, unless it be along the western coast of 

 the peninsula. 



In addition to these, Edwards gives in his Synopsis, Metura Cipris 

 (Callidryas Ci/pris), a species we havt not seen, from New Mexico. 

 Butler's only localities are Brazil and Peru I have also in my col- 

 lection from Texas a single female of Calli'lri/as Phileo, the ])ale form, 

 so common in this and allied genera, without any trace of the deep 

 red color, so striking on Butler's plate. The localities given by But- 

 ler are Rio Janeiro, Bahia, Amazons, Bogota, Polochic Valley, Santa 

 Martha, Mexico and Honduras. We have therefore five species in 

 the United States. 



I take this opportunity of adding a species to those described by 

 Butler. 

 Aphrisaa Butleri nov. sp. 



Upper surface uniform pale bull', the outer half of the coatal mar- 

 gin of the fore wings and the outer margin, us far as the loAver 

 median nervure, very narrowly bordered with blackish brown, broad- 

 est, but still very narrow, at the apex. The sexual mealy border of 

 the wings is of a silvery lioary appearance. On the fore wings it 

 occupies nearly half the upper surface, its interior border passing 

 from the middle of the uppern^ost subcostal nervule to the middle of
