86 Mr. Butler's Dcsoij^tions of nciv 



thorace nigro coccineo-maculato, alxloiiiiiie punctis octo, in 

 serie duplici veiitrali, albis : exp. alar. unc. 3, lin. 4. Coll. 

 Druce. 



The above species should certainly belong to a distinct 

 genus from P. Laiitia and allies, since the males of that 

 group have the frontwing costa strongly serrated as in the 

 genus Frioiieru amongst the Picrinw. If it be thought 

 advisa])le to separate P. Lcctitia and allies from Pajnlio, I 

 would suggest the name Pyrrhostida for that group. I 

 confess my inability to account for the reluctance of Ento- 

 mologists to split up this unwieldy genus. P. Clusoculis is 

 allied to P, Hipijason.
