Mr. A. G. Butler on Peruvian Lepidoptera. 227 



Genus 16. Dione, Hiibner. 



28. Dione Moneta. B.M. 



Dione Moneta, Hiibner, Samml. exot. Sclimett. (1816-24). 

 Agraulis Glycera, Felder, Wien. ent. Monatsclir. v. p. 102, n. 75 

 (1861). 



Felder erroneously renamed Hiibner' s species, supposing 

 that the insect figured in the ' Genera of Diurnal Lepidoptera ' 

 was a representation of it ; the species there figured, however, 

 is identical with that figured by Poey, and is clearly distinct 

 from D. Moneta. I therefore propose to call it D. Focyii.
