sion, other specimens should show considerable variation from 

 this type. In describing such a specimen, or even series of speci- 

 mens, a plate is indispensable. 



Pamphila viridenex A. G. Weeks, Jr. 1 

 (Plate XIV, Figure 3.) 



Habitat : Bolivia, five days north from Cochabamba. Ex- 

 panse : i .00 inch. 



Head, thorax, palpi and abdomen, bronzy brown above; greenish brown 

 beneath. Antennae black above, with white annulations at base of each joint ; 

 lighter beneath. Club black above ; beneath, fulvous with dark tip. Legs 

 greenish brown, tending to fulvous. 



Upper side of fore wing bronzy brown. Hind margin has a fringe of tawny 

 hairs. A dark line extends from end of discoidal space downward, ending at 

 central point of submedian nervure. Midway between the upper end of this 

 line and hind margin, is a very indistinct lightish spot. The costa is lighter 

 than ground color from its base upward to its centre, and the basal area is 

 dusted with these lighter-colored scales. 



Hind wing entirely bronzy brown, excepting the tawnyish fringe of hairs 

 at hind margin and the dusting of lighter scales at basal area. 



Under side of fore wing is greenish brown, excepting the lower area as bor- 

 dered by median nervure and thence by a line drawn from its end to lower 

 angle. This area is velvety black, shading to grayish toward inner margin. 

 The hind margin, also, has a border of tawny hairs. There is a suggestion of 

 a line of interspacial white spots in the four lower interspaces, beginning at 

 end of discoidal space, and extending downward toward centre of submedian 

 nervure. 



Under side of hind wing greenish brown. Hind margin bordered as above, 

 with a fringe of tawny hairs. Near end of discoidal space, is a slight white 

 dot, and midway between this and hind margin, is an interspacial line of 

 white extending from near apex down to centre of submedian nervure, fol- 

 lowing closely the contour of the hind margin. The inner marginal space is 

 dusted with black scales.
