PL. XXIV 



(1) Eresia frisia (Poey), Plate XXIII, Fig. 4, tf (Poey'g 

 Crescent). 



Our figure of the upper side will enable any one to recognize 

 it. Below the wings are fulvous, mottled with dark brown 

 and white, and the spots of the upper side reappear as white 

 bands and markings. Expanse 1.4-1.5 inch. 



Occurs in the extreme south of Florida about Key West, and 

 is not uncommon in the Antilles, Mexico, and Central America 



(2) Eresia texana (Edwards), Plate XXIV, Fig. 1, 9 (The 

 Texan Crescent). 



Well represented in our illustration. Below the fore wings 

 are fulvous at base, and broadly marked with dark brown be- 

 yond the middle. Hind wings at base marbled wood-brown, 

 and dark externally like the fore wings. The light spots of 

 upper side reappear on lower side, but not so distinctly. Ex- 

 panse 1.25-1.75 inch. 



Ranges through Texas into Mexico, and South America. 

 The genus Eresia is undoubtedly one of those which originated 

 in the warm neotropical regions and which since the glacia\ 

 epoch have spread northward. Many of our genera have 

 come to us from the South.
