49. THESSALIA Seuddcr. 



Type: Melitaea Leanira Feld. 



Differs from Lemonias, to which (and especially to the American representa- 

 tives of which) it is most nearly allied in its somewhat longer antennae, hind 

 tibiae longer in comparison with the hind femora, the greater separation of 

 the costal and subcostal nervures of the fore wings, other points of neuration 

 and the more arched outer border of the hind wings.
