(Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. (7) xvii. p. 197 (1900) (Carahay:)), 

 aiul [)lact'(l l)y Sir (jrC()r;^c in the genus Eupseudosoina. In 

 1909 1 described an allied insect as Pruniala incisn (Nov. 

 Zool. vol, .\vi. |). 2.'), pi. iv. fig. 17 (1909) (Foiite Boa)) from 

 a ? , and this insect Sir George placed next to his incarnata 

 in Apfiyle; in 1911 Monsieur Dogiiiu deseriljcd a ^ distinct 

 from Drnce's marpessa nnder the name of Kupseiulosoma 

 parapessa (Het. Mouv. Amer. Sud, fuse. v. p. 9 (1912) 

 (Fonte Boa)), which is evidently tlie ^ of my iyuha. 

 Lastly, in 1909 I described as Antaxia affinis (Nov. Zool. 

 vol. xvi. p. 26, pi. iv. fig. 20 (1909) (Carabaya)) a further 

 allied form which Sir George placed next to parapessa, 

 Dogn., in Eupseudusoiau. Dr. Jordan has examined all 

 these with the exception of the (S parapessa^ and finds the 

 uen ration is the same. 



Dr. Jordan also examined a number of species placed in 

 the genera Plueuinolis, Neaxia, Eriostepta, Ainaxia, Evins, 

 and Areoniulis, and is convinced that all the species with 

 modified or distorted hind wings due to the presence of 

 scent-ui'gans belong to one genus, while those with normal 

 bind wings belong to another. The presence of the very 

 varied types of scent-organ displaces the veins of the hind 

 wings, and the resulting neuration cannot be considered 

 generic, as it is confined to the ^ sex. 



It becomes apparent, therefore, th;it the whole of the 

 Arctiinie requires a complete classificatory revision, and 

 the present paper must be read in that light ; the alteration 

 of generic nauies can only be considered as tentative. 



15. Phaomolis bella bell a (Schaus). 



JSeaxia bella, Schaus, Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus. vol. xxix. p. 212 (1900) 

 (St. Joan de Maroui). 



Sir George Ilampson places this directly after JS^eaxia 

 theon, Uruce, whereas the neuration agrees with that of 

 P/ueomolis lepida, Schaus. I believe, in fact, that lepida, 

 Schaus, is only the Central-American race of bellu, Schaus, 

 and must stand as P/ncomoUs bella lepida (Schaus).
