8. SATYRIUM Scuddev. 



Type : Lycaeua f uliginosa Edw. 



This genus which both Edwards and Boisduval referred to the Ephori is 

 allied to Erora, but in the sobriety of its markings and coloration is in striking 

 contrast to that group, recalling to a certain degree a tone of color common 

 among Oreades or Satyrids, whence the name I have applied to it. The center 

 of the eyes is thinly pilose ; the palpi, though slight, are longer than the eyes 

 by the whole length of the terminal joint. The fore tibiae are three-fourths 

 and the middle tibiae seven-eighths the length of the hind tibiae. The wings 

 are broader than in Erora, resembling more those of Callipsyche, but, as in 

 the former genus, the male has no discal stigma on the front pair, and the 

 hind -wings are scarcely excavated at the tip of the inner border ; the first 

 superior subcostal nervule of the fore wings arises at or just before the middle 

 of the cell, and the latter is a little less than half as long as the wing. In 

 the markings of the under surface of the wings Satyrium resembles Calli- 

 psyche more closely than Erora, but in structure it seems more nearly allied 

 to the latter.

9. CALLIPSYCHE Scudder. 



Type: Thecla Behrii Edw. 



A genus allied to Erora and to a certain extent to Callophrys, in general 

 form. The male has a long, very narrow and inconspicuous discal stigma on 

 the fore wings ; the hind wings are rather broader than in Erora, and, besides 

 being much less produced and less angulate at the anal angle, have a slight 

 arcuate excision in the medio-submedian interspace and a much deeper 

 excision at the outer third of the inner margin ; there are no tails. The 

 antennae are slightly longer than in Erora and have rather a shorter club ; fore 

 tibiae of male a little more than three-fourths the length of the hind tibiae ; 

 middle tibiae scarcely longer than the front pair ; neuration of fore wings of 

 male scarcely disturbed (as it is in Thecla) by the discal stigma.
