this followed by a broad glossy blue belt, which forms the outer 

 border on the hind wing; apical part of fore wing dark brown. 

 Beneath light brown j base of wings with a short blackish streak ; 

 centre of wings crossed by two rusty-red belts, the outer one four 

 times the width of the inner. Outside of the broad belt, on the 

 fore wing, is a row of three subapical, triangular, black spots, and 

 between them and the inner margin a third rusty belt ; on the hind 

 wing there is a row of large, acute-triangular brown spots edged on 

 the inner side with yellowish, and having in the middle a large black 

 ocellus edged on the outer side by a white lunule. The outer border 

 of the hind wing is broadly orange, and the anal angle tinged with 

 glossy purple. 

 Face, palpi, and legs tawny yellow, forehead brown, with two yellow 



lines. Antennae ringed ; club black. 

 Hab. Ega. 



This species is closely allied to JE. Eutyclms, differing only in 

 the markings of the underside. It might be considered a mere 

 aberration in which the two outer belts were blended into one, 

 were it not for the broad orange outer border of the hind wing, 

 destitute of fine marginal lines. ■ 



EURYGONA CLITHRA. 



S . 1" 10"'. Same shape and size asi?. Eutychus (Hewits. Exot. Butt. 

 Eu. f. 44). Wings above black, crossed by a dark-blue belt very much 

 narrower than in E. Eutychus, and extending round the outer margin 

 of the hind wing ; fringe black. Beneath, fore wing crossed by five 

 rusty-brown stripes as in E. Eutychus, and having three black sub- 

 apical spots. Hind wing with the basal half white, crossed by two 

 rusty-red belts ; apical half rusty brown, with a row of sharp angular 

 spots ; central ocellus and yellow submarginal line as in E. Eutychus, 

 the only difference being that the white ground-colour in the middle 

 of the wing forms a broad belt, gradually widening from the costa to 

 the abdominal margin. 



5 . 1" 10'". Light brown, disk of hind wing broadly whitish with the 

 black ocellus shining through. Beneath, same as in the c? • 



Hab. Para, also at Montes Aureos, interior of Maranham. 



EURYGONA EXTENSA. 



cJ . 1" /"'• Length of hind wing 8|"'. Closely allied to E. eubotes, 

 Hewits. (Exot. Butt. Eu. f. 64) ; differing in its much larger size 

 and especially in the great length of the hind wing, which, however, is 

 not produced or acute at the anal angle. Above dark brown, glossed 

 with purple, slightly paler on disk of fore wing. Beneath light brown, 

 glossed with lilacine. Wings crossed, much beyond the middle, by 

 a dark red-brown unwaved stripe, followed by a very indistinct dark 

 stripe. The fore wing has besides a distinct, interrupted, dark sub- 

 marginal line. The hind wing has a row of 9 white submarginal
