secondaries are translucent, with the costa and the outer margin black, 

 the black border being narrow on the costa near the base, then widening 

 rapidly to the outer angle, then still widening in width toward the anal 

 angle, fading away near the inner margin, which is without a border. 

 Expanse 45 mm. 



This is a very distinct species, and may readily be distinguished 

 from its near allies by the extreme translucency of the seconda- 

 ries, and the absence of white spots upon the outer margin of 

 the primaries below the apex as well as by the form of the sub- 

 apical band.

2. A. incisa sp. nov. (^.— Antennae black; front reddish orange; collar 

 black. Body whitish. Legs white, with the femora narrowly edged with 

 blackish ; the primaries are yellowish white, tinged with orange-red at the 

 base near the costa; the costa at the base is very narrowly edged with 

 black, and this black border rapidly widens and covers the entire outer 

 half of the wing; the inner edge of this black border is sharply cut into 

 by the white basal area about the end of the cell above the second sub- 

 median and at the end of the first submedian. A large oval white spot 

 interrupts the black apical area beyond the end of the cell; the seconda- 

 ries are yellowish white, with the outer margin heavily black, the inner 

 edge of this black margin being very irregularly and deeply cut into by 

 the white area opposite the end of the cell; the underside is marked very 

 much as the upperside. Expanse 35 mm.

3. 6. notata sp. nov. J^. — Allied to G. circumdata Walk., but larger, 

 and with the black borders differently arranged. Head and antennae 

 black; collar rufous. Body black; the legs orange, margined with black- 

 ish; the underside of the abdomen orange; the primaries have the costa 

 near the base and the outer half broadly black, the line dividing the outer 

 black area running from beyond the middle of the cell diagonally out- 

 wardly to a point one-quarter of the distance from the outer angle upon 

 the inner margin ; the secondaries are broadly bordered with black, 

 widest near the outer angle and narrower upon the inner margin; this 

 outer black border is produced inwardly near the anal angle; the under- 

 side of the wings is much as the upperside. The female is marked much 

 as the male, but with broader wings. E.xpanse: cf, 35 mm.; 9, 4° mm. 



4. 6. cynosephala sp. nov. ^. — Head and antennae black; collar ful. 

 vous; the upperside of the thorax and of the abdomen whitish, the latter 

 narrowly annulated with black; the underside of the thorax is fulvous; 

 the underside of the abdomen is whitish; the legs are black, margined 

 with whitish; the primaries are black upon the costa and have the outer 

 half broadly black; this broad black area is invaded by tiie white basal
