white and darker brown ; a dark band crosses from the apical 

 angle of the anterior wings to the second section of the 

 median nervm'e of the posterior wings ; another reaches from 

 the apical angle of the hind Avings to the inner margin ; and a 

 third, parallel to the last, forms a chord to a portion of the 

 curve of the outer margin, near which are four very small 

 white spots.

Ohs. The markings of the underside of this species con'espond 

 witli tliDse of P. leuctra] on the upperside it resembles P. mceris^

30. Paj>Ma indigotica. 



$ . Exp. o'30 in. Antennae black ; palpi brown, freckled 

 with white ; head and thorax dark greenish ; abdomen dark 

 indigo-blue : anterior wings have the apical angle pointed, the 

 outer margin straight to the bend of the anal angle, which is 

 only slightly falcate ; dark indigo-blue, lighter at the base ; 

 costa freckled with pale bluish-green scales ; a cm-ved band of 

 pale bluish green crosses the apical angle from the costa to the

 especially near the costa of the anterior wings, with white ; a 

 darkish band crosses the cell, another starts from the middle 

 of the lower radial, and reaches to the second section of the 

 median nervure of the posterior wings ; another band crosses 

 the jjosterior wings from tlie apical angle to the inner margin ; 

 and another, parallel to the last, forms a chord to part of the 

 outer margin ; outside this last band is a broad whitish line, 

 and near the base of the caudal projection a spot outwardly 

 black, inwardly white. 



Ilah. Calobre, Veragua (Arce).
