Flavinia, Walker. 

 Flavinia cyrene, sp. n. 



Form of F. posiica. Primaries longer and slightly narrower, the 

 citron-yellow baud formed into a large round spot near the apex : 

 secondaries citron-yellow, with the outer margins bordered with 

 black from the apex to anal angle round to the base, thus differing 

 from F. postica. Head, thorax, and upper side of abdomen black ; 

 sides and underside pale yellow ; collar bright yellow ; antennae 

 and legs black. 



Expanse 1| inch. 



Sab. Bolivia {Buchley). 



Flavinia roxana, sp. n. (Plate XXXII. fig. 19.) 



Form of F. Icefa, from which it differs in being bright red instead 

 of yellow ; the black band crossing the primaries ii narrower and 

 more oblique ; the large spot near the apex is rouuder. The 

 head, thorax, and abdomen are all black, and not striped with 

 yellow as in F. Iceta ; antennae black. 



Expanse 1| inch. 



Hab. East Peru, valley of the Cosnipata {JVhitely). 



This species is very distinct from all the others in the genus, being 

 at once distinguished by its bright red colour. 



Flavinia ops, sp. n. 



Form of F. Iceta, from which it differs in wanting the black band 

 across the primaries ; in the specimens before me it is onlv a black ^- 

 shaped mark extending from the costal margin across the end of the 

 cell ; in this species the black outer borders of the secondaries are only 

 about half the width of those in F. lata. 



Expanse Ig inch. 



Hab. New Grenada. 



Two examples of this species are in the British-Museum collection 

 from the same locality. 



MiCROPUs, Hiibner. 

 MiCROPUs elegans, sp. n. (Plate XXXII. fig. 20.) 



Primaries bright yellow, with the costal, apex, and outer margins 

 bordered with black, the black border at the apex not beino- more 

 than half the width it is In M. longalis : secondaries bright yellow, 

 with the apex and outer margin narrowly bordered with black. 

 Head, antennae, and front of thorax black ; thorax and abdomen 

 yellow ; the anus and two last segments black ; the underside of the 

 abdomen dusky white. 



Expanse 1| inch. 



Hab. Ecuador, lutaj (^Buckley). 



This species is aUied to M. longalis, from which it is at once 

 distinguished by its larger size and narrow black borders to the 

 wings.
