CYSTINEURA, 4:. 
The only American species of this genus is readily recognized _ by its 
color. The genus differs in the elongate primaries with produced pointed 
apices and very oblique slightly convex or rounded outer margin. Sec- 
ondaries triangular and comparatively somewhat small. Antenne rather 
short with a cylindric club, showing an evident relationship to the 
Satyrinae to which indeed it is very close, as the costal vein of the prima- 
ries is inflated. The position assioned the genus by Mr. W. H. Edwards 
between Phyciodes and Vanessa is unnatural. The species is:
