the crimson black, on which near the costa is a white spot 

 followed by a blue clash : posterior wings cinereous, costa red ; 

 a very irregular narrow black band crosses the wings from the 

 costal to the inner margin, and a lunulated submarginal band 

 skirts the outer margin ; between the radials are two very in- 

 distinct black spots, about which and towards the costa is a 

 brownish cloud. 



Hab. Valley of the Cosnipata, Peru {Whitely). 



Ohs. In the markings of the upper surface this species resem- 

 bles Perisama Lehasii^ Gudr. ; on the underside it differs in the 

 greater extent of crimson on the anterior wings, in the much 

 greater irregularity of the inner dark line of the posterior 

 wings, and in having the black spots scarcely traceable. 



24. Callicore neglecta. 



(^ . Exp. 1*80 in. AntennjB black ; palpi black above, white 

 beneath ; head black ; thorax tinged with green ; abdomen 

 black above, beneath white : wings blue-black, cilia white ; 

 base of the wing sprinkled with shining blue scales ; a blue 

 or golden-green band crosses the anterior wing from the sub- 

 costal to the inner margin near the anal angle ; another band 

 of the same colour, followed outwardly by another narrow 

 duller line, occupies the middle of the posterior wing near the 

 outer margin : base of the wing beneath, apex, and outer mar- 

 gin white, central portion crimson, the rest black ; a narrow 

 black line follows the outer border, and another parallel to it 

 skirts the apical angle : posterior wings white ; a narrow sub- 

 marginal line, two lines parallel to the outer margin coalescing 

 in a red costal line, black ; two black central rings, one (pear- 

 shaped) including one black spot, the other (oval) including 

 two spots ; two other black lines cross the base of the wing, 

 and follow down the inner margin. 



Hab. Apolobamba, North Bolivia {Pearce) ; valley of the 

 Cosnipata ( Wkifeli/) ,* Pozzuzo, Peru {Pearce) ; Ecuador ; 

 New Granada ; central valleys of Guatemala (Salvin d; God- 

 nut n) . 



Ohs, Most nearly allied to G. anna, Gudr., but differing in 

 having a double band to the hind wings, the upper one of the 

 same lustre as that of the anterior wings. G. chjmena, with 

 which this species is usiially placed in collections, has but a 

 single dull-colom-cd band, and beneath is distinguished for the 

 great size and width of the black markings. 



The species, as will be seen from the above list of localities, 

 has a wide range in the valleys of the Andes, thence extend- 

 iuo; nortliw;(r(ls into Central' America as far as CJuatemala.
