the opposite direction to the upper bar, to a little beyond the 

 middle of the subraedian nervure, a dusky spot below the 

 cell at its junction with the lowest median nervule, and 

 another nearer the base below it. Posterior wings with a 

 curved row of dusky spots between the veins a little beyond 

 the middle, the two uppermost being situated below the 

 middle of the costal nervure and approaching the base. 



Underside. Anterior wings paler than above, especially the 

 space beneath the lower vitreous spot beyond the narrow bar 

 (which is represented as on the upperside), where it is dusted 

 with pale grey. Posterior wings white, except along the 

 costal margin and apical region, where it is dusted with ashy 

 grey, the row of spots on the upperside being represented on 

 the underside by a row of smaller black spots, several of 

 which are nearly obsolete. 



Expanse of wings 1^ inch.

Hah. Colombia, Santa Fe de Bogota [Buquet). 



This species is allied to P. hastifer^ but is quite differently 

 coloured, and the armature of the thorax and of the head in 

 the female are different. The thorax is coarsely rugose, 

 obliquely declivous anteriorly, the male having two distant 

 erect black tubercles at a short distance from the base. The 

 female has on the head a broad, erect, slightly curved horn.
