3. Othria amazonica, Westw. Alis brevioribus, latioribus, anticis subtrigonis ; atra, 



alis fascia fulva e medio costae fere ad angulum analem extensa, postice nonnihil 

 incurva, alis subtus omnino concoloribus. Expans. alar. ant. una 1, lin. 11. 

 Sab. Amazonia. In Mus. Hopeiano Oxonise. 



Had not Dr. Boiscluval described an insect as the probable female of 0. augias, with 

 grey veins at the extremity of the fore wings as in the male, I should have been induced 

 to regard this Amazonian insect as the female of O. augias. The veins of its wings are 

 arranged exactly as in O. augias. 



4. Othria Lindigii. Atra, collo, abdominis lateribus, alis anticis, macula magna basali 



trigona alteraque transversa ovali pone medium absque posticis (limbo lato nigro 

 excepto) fulvis, subtus magis stramineis. Expans. alar. 2- 1 x 2 - unc. 



Agarista Lindigii, Felder, Lep. Voy. Novara, pi. 107. f. 6. 



Sab. Yilla Nova Amazonian In Mus. Hopeiano Oxonise. 

 Obs. Individua e Nova Granada et Ecuadoria allata paullo minora (exp. unc. If) macu- 



lisque fulvis minoribus. 

 Obs. Individuum majus (exp. unc. 2-^-) maculis albidis in alis anticis, absque posticis 

 pallidioribus, limbo nigro angustiore. 

 In this species the second branch of the postcostal vein arises near the upper end of 

 the small accessory postcostal cell. In the hind wings the veins are arranged as 

 in 0. augias. 



5. Othbia amalthea. Atra, annulo colli, lateribus abdominis, puncto trigono in medio 



fasciaque tenui abbreviata pone medium alarum anticarum, alis posticis (limbo 

 lato nigro excepto) fulvis. Expans. alar, antic, unc. 1\%. 

 JEgocera amalthea, Dalman, Analecta Entom. 49. 24 ; Walker, Cat. Lep. Het. B. M. i. p. 58. 



Sab. Brasilia, Peru, Bogota ? In Mus. Hopeiano Oxonise. 



In this species the fore wings are more elongated, and the second branch of the post- 

 costal vein of the fore wings arises exactly at the tip of the small accessory post- 

 costal cell. 



6. Othria coltjmbtna. Tota atra, fascia obliqua parum flexuosa e medio costse fere 



ad angulum analem extensa, fulva, postice parum latiore. Expans. alar, antic. 



unc. 2- 1 J a. 

 Sab. Columbia (Chesterton), In Mus. Hopeiano Oxonise. 

 The wing-veins are arranged as in O. amalthea. 



7. Othria ecuadorina. Corpore cum collo nigris, alis latioribus atris ; anticis fascia 



tenui recta obliqua pone medium nee marginem costalem nee angulum analem 

 attingente, maculaque magna ovali discoidali alarum posticarum aurantiacis, margine 

 anali nigro. Expans. alar, antic, unc. 2. 

 Sab. Ecuador. In Mus. Hopeiano Oxonise.
