the rivulet, near the hou>e at Retiro." 

 p. 24. 8. 28. 2= 712, 713. At Retiro. (As 514.) 



Westwood's list agrees, though he places this species with 

 the next under the name Anyerona Ferentina. 



Ayeronia ferentina, Godt. 



Bz. + 29. 12. 25. = 714. On the Brazilian label is the 

 following : — " Papiliones hujus generis insident in 

 truncis nudis apricis." Rio de Janeiro, Catombi, Barra 

 Vermelha, and Rio Comprido.

Westwood's list agrees. On 720 he had written u Anye-

Ayeronia chlo'e, Stoll. 



1243-2. 7. 9. 28. 3= 721-723. Rio Maranhao to Fe Guarda 

 Mor. (As 685.) 

 Westwood's list and name agree, except that he writes 

 the generic name as Anyerona. On 722 he had written 

 " Anyerona Chloe, Stoll." 



Gynwcia dirce, Linn. 



10. 1. 26. 3= 724-726. Rio de Janeiro. (As 670.) 



Westwood's list gives another individual captured 7. 3. 26. 

 Rio de Janeiro. " At Catombi." His name and dates 

 otherwise agree. 



The general resemblance on the upper surface between this 

 species and Hypna clytemnestra, Cr., may prove to be of 

 mimetic significance. On comparing the data on BurchelPs 

 specimens the following facts are evident : — Between Sept. 8th, 

 1825, and April 3rd, 1826, Burchell captured 54 specimens 

 (by Westwood's list, see pp. 167-168) of Hypna clytemnestra, 

 Cr., at Rio de Janeiro and its neighbourhood. Of these 

 46 can now be traced. In the same locality he took 4 

 specimens (of which we now possess 3) of (Jynwcia dirce, L., 

 on the two dates Jan. 10th, 1826, and March 7th, 1826. 

 From Westwood's list we gain still further evidence that the
