of primaries straighter, the black apical border decidedly 

 narrower, with zigzag dentated inner edge ; only the fringe 

 of secondaries (not the margin also) blackish ; male above 

 white, female bright orange washed with canary-yellow on 

 costa and in cell of primaries : the male below nearly resembles 

 D. leucanihe, but the blackish line on the end of the dis- 

 coidal cell of primaries is either ill-defined or wanting ; the 

 apical border also is only indicated through the wing and the 

 veins crossing it are barely or not at all blackened ; the apical 

 area of these winc-s and the whole surface of secondaries are 

 far more buff in tint, and the veins of the latter wings are 

 black to the base ; the wings themselves are more rounded, 

 less produced at anal angle than in D. leucanthe : the female 

 below is paler (more golden crocus-yellow) than above, in 

 veining it corresponds with the male.

Daptonura latilimhata, sp. n. 



^ . Allied to D. peruviana ; basal two thirds of primaries 

 milk-white ; costal margin and apical third black-brown, the 

 inner edge of the latter zigzag, commencing almost parallel 

 to the end of the cell and continued obliquely to near the 

 extremity of the first median branch, whence it tapers more 

 abruptly to the extremity of the subraedian vein ; fringe 

 towards external angle white : secondaries milk-white, with 

 black-brown outer border as wide as in the female of D. eu- 

 rymnia^ but not spotted : body normal. Wings below with 

 the black-brown borders broader, shining dark copper-brown ; 

 a black-brown cuneiform streak from costa closing tiie dis- 

 coidal cell of primaries; basal lobe of secondaries orange, 

 and sides of pectus washed with the same colour as in 

 D. peruviana.
