312 Miss Cora B. Sanders on the Rhopalocera 



Pseudoscada Jessica, Hew. 



11. 2. 26. 2 S = 16, 17. Organ Mountains. " By the 



River Pacaque." " In a walk to the Ipe* trees." 

 14. 2. 26. £ = 18. Organ Mountains. Near R. Pacaque. 



Agrees in all respects with Westwood's notes. Burchell's 

 manuscript label was missing from 18. The date was re- 

 covered from Westwood's list. 



Pseudoscada acilla, Hew. 



4. 11. 25. <$ = 19. Minas Geraes. Francisco Manoel'd 

 Rancho. Near Nepdmueena. 



8. 2. 26. £ = 20. Organ Mountains. (As 10-12.) 



9. 2. 26. S = 21. „ „ " By the River Pa- 



caque." 

 Agrees in all respects with Westwood, except that 15 was 

 also included under acilla. 



Ithomia agnosia, Hew. 



10. 11. 25. 3 $ = 22-24. Minas Geraes. 



These three specimens were carefully compared with twenty- 

 three in the Hope Department, one in the British Museum, and 

 a series in the Godman-Salvin Collection, none, however, being 

 from Brazil. A very few examples (one from Colombia) in 

 the Godman-Salvin Collection occur approaching the Burchell 

 form. The Burchell specimens vary from the usual form in 

 having no extension of the black diagonal band on the fore 

 wing into the interspace between the second and third median 

 nervules, and a narrower marginal band on the hind wing. 

 The general effect of the difference between these in the 

 specimens mentioned above is that the transparent part of the 

 wings is much more prominent in the Burchell examples. 

 Jn fact the difference resembles that between phenomoe and 

 Burchelli (compare figs. 3 and 4 with 1 and 2 on PI. VI.), 

 described on p. 315. In both cases South-East Brazil is 

 characterized by a form in which the transparent area of the 

 wings is increased at the expense of the black markings. 



Agrees with Westwood's notes. He had written the words 

 " agnosia, var. ; " on 22.
