644 MR. H. DRUCE ON THE GENUS PAPHIA. [JuilclQ, 



lorna, with the grey-green margin not half the width. On the 

 underside this species is a very different-looking insect, it is dark 

 brown thickly irrorated with black, the anterior wing is crossed by a 

 pale brown baud from the apex to the middle of the inner margin ; 

 the posterior wing crossed in the middle by a row of four pale 

 brown spots, the first close to the costal margin, the second in the 

 middle, and the third and fourth close to the anal angle. 



Exp. 2| inches. 



Hab. Bolivia {Buckley). Mus. Hewitson.
