Ptychoglene flammans, sp. nov. 



Deep bluish black. Fore wings bright scarlet, the outer margin broadly black, 

 broadest at anal angle and twice inwardly waved, namely at submedian and discal 

 folds ; inner margin narrowly lined with black. Costal edge of secondaries broadly 

 red on basal two-thirds. Below as above, the outer border of primaries straighter 

 within. Expanse, 31 mm. 



2 $ $. Chiricahua Mts., Arizona (H. G. Hubbard). Type No. 

 3785, U. S. Nat. Mus. 



Apparently allied to phrada Druce, but the border of primaries is 

 irregular. 



Ptychoglene has the venation of Eubaphe, but differs in the longer 

 narrower fore wings. In this genus will also come coccinea Hy. Edw. 

 as North American. 



Of the described species, pomponia Druce is Eubaphe as tenia Hy. 

 Edw. j splendida Druce is green and can hardly belong to this genus. 

 The others separate as follows. I have marked with an asterisk those 

 examined by me.
