224: Mr. G. T. Betlmne-Baker oji new 



gveyisli below ; tliorax with patagia tipped with creamy 

 yellow, with two anterior S])ot3 and two lunular posterior 

 marks of the same colour ; abdomen banded above with the 

 same colour. Both wings extremely dark olive-green, so as 

 to look almost blackish with the naked eye, with very pale 

 creamy yellowish markings. In the primaries there is a 

 short dash on the U])per margin of the cell at the base, 

 followed by two spots and the outline of a spot at the end of 

 the cell ; below these there is an oblique somewhat irregular 

 dash, followed by a broad oblique band ending in a spot 

 above vein 3, the veins show blackish through ; above this 

 band are three dashes shaped thus ^ — ; a subterminal irregular 

 row of spear-shaped markings, followed by a trace of a very 

 fine line. Secondaries with a subbasal and postmedial broad 

 transverse band, a subterminal row of spear-shaped marks 

 followed by a distinct fine line. 



Under surface of both wings ochreous grey. Primaries 

 with a white basal dash on the upper margin of tlie 

 cell, followed by an ochreous-brown spot encircled with 

 black, and again with white, below which is a small black 

 spot ; at the end of the cell is an irregular mark almost 

 encircled with white, a broad whitish oblique band of three 

 huge spots, with three Avhitish dashes, following the upper- 

 side markings; beyond, below vein 2, is a black patcii with 

 a series of dark points to near the costa, followed by the 

 subterminal white spear-shaped marks and a fine whitish line 

 as on the upper surface. Secondaries with a basal, medial, 

 and postmedial whitish band, the latter spotted and extending 

 to vein 7 ; beyond this latter is a series of small, distinct, 

 black spots right across the wing, followed by the sub- 

 terminal whitish spear-shaped marks and fine whitish line. 



? . Both wings brown, with similar markings to the male, 

 but white, with the addition in both wings of a row of large 

 dark spots before the spear-shaped marks. The under 

 surface is yellower than in the male, with all the markings 

 intensified. 



Expanse, ^ 54, $ 59-60 mm. 



This insect is probably the West Coast form of elahontas, 

 Hew., but it may be recognized by the much broader and 

 larger postmedial band of the primaries, and by the mark in 

 the cell being quite linear ; in Hewitson^s insect there is a 

 largish cell-spot, above which is a second small one ; the two 

 bands in the secondaries are much wider than in elahontas 

 and not spotted, and the under surface is uniformly pale.
