ILLUSTRATIONS OF UNFIGURED LEPIDOPTERA. 17 



face is distinctly repeated with slight dashes of similar shade in hind marginal 

 interspaces. 



Under side of hind wing tawny green. Close to juncture with, thorax is a 

 white spot. The band of upper surface is repeated but is pure white and ex- 

 tends nearer or fully to the costa just above angle. Hind marginal interspaces 

 dashed with tawny suffusing upwards somewhat near anal angle. The anal 

 angle is dusted with dark brown scales. 



Taken in March, 1900. 



Pamphila mengeli A. G. Weeks, Jr. 1 



(Plate XI, Figure I.) 

 Habitat: Suapure, Venezuela. Expanse: i.io inches. 



Head, thorax, abdomen, and antennae dark brown above, nearly white be- 

 neath. Club above dark brown, beneath, dark brown tipped with brick color. 

 Legs nearly white. 



Upper side of fore wing dark brown. Basal area slightly dusted with golden 

 scales. Near the apex are two subcostal white dots, very minute. Below these 

 in first submedian interspace near end of discoidal space is a larger white dot, 

 and below it in next lower interspace are two white dots in a line parallel to 

 hind margin. A black dash extends downwards towards centre of inner margin 

 from the end of discoidal space. Marginal fringe very light brown. 



Upper side of hind wing dark brown. A series of four indistinct interspacial 

 white spots extend from near upper angle across the wing towards anal angle. 

 Marginal fringe very light brown. 



Under side of fore wing light brown, the lower half, especially towards the 

 base, dark brown. The white dots of upper surface are repeated, the two lower 

 ones more prominent, and in interspace below these is a dusting of light scales. 

 Marginal fringe of ground color. Tips of nervules and nervures touched with 

 black. Nervures and nervules of lighter color than ground color. 



Under side of hind wing light brown. The nervures and nervules distinctly 

 lighter. The light spots of upper surface are joined, forming a line rather 

 than a series of spots and extending upwards nearer to costa. Within this line 

 and at centre of wing area is a light dot of similar color. The marginal fringe 

 and border is the same as on fore wing. 



This species was found in the Godman collection unnamed, but 

 was not in the British Museum or other large collections. 

 Taken in November, 1899.
