Anterior wings with three grey bands, and some grey 

 marks at apex A. dugesii. Ckll. 



(1.) A. attissimus (Quaintance). Pound by Prof . Townsend in 

 Tabasco, on "Palo de Gusano." Adult unknown. 



(2.) A. iridescens, Ckll. Also discovered by Prof. Townsend, 

 and not collected since. 



(3.) A. mirabUis ( Ckll. ) Collected by Prof. Townsend in Ta- 

 basco. It occurs on "laurel" andAnona. 



(4. ) A . dugesii, Ckll. Discovered by Dr. A. Duges at Guana- 

 juato. I have recently received specimens from. Profes- 

 sor Herrera (n° 581), from Oaxaca. I take this opportu- 

 nity to figure the structural details of the pupa, based on 

 the Oaxaca material and some material kindly sent from 

 Guanajuato by Dr. Duges. The pupa is dull pale gre- 

 enish, oval in outline, with vertical sides. The dorsal 

 and marginal secretory pores emit great quantities of 

 very long brittle white threads. The pupa has some res- 

 emblance to that of A. holnwsii (Maskell), but in dugesii 

 the lingua is much larger, and the dorsal secretory tu- 

 bes are ten in number; two placed antero -laterally, and 

 four on each side in the abdominal region, all being ap- 

 proximately equal in size. In A. Jiolmesii the abdominal 

 tubes are six on each side, the four anterior ones small.
