LEPIBOPXEBA OF THE FAMILY ZYGiENID/E. 401 



It will be seeutliat Walker adopted tbe above (which is conge- 

 neric with E. andromacha) as the type of tiis Eunomia ; he was 

 therefore nearer to the truth than any of his successors. 



4. E. FULVICAUDA, n. sp. 



Allied to E. leucaspis, much smaller, and different in the colour of the 

 body : body above black ; palpi white in front ; head dark brown, a 

 green dot behind each eye ; antennae black ; pterygodes black, broadly 

 bordered internally with metallic blue-greea ; thorax with a large pos- 

 terior metallic-green spot ; abdomen with all the segments bordered 

 behind with dark metallic green ; anal tuft black internally, golden 

 yellow externally : wings exactly as in E. andromacha, hyaline-white^ 

 with the veins, margins, and bases black ; primaries with a black 

 htura at end of cell : body below dark brown ; coxa; metallic blue- 

 green ; trochanters, basal segments of abdomen, and anus white ; anal 

 tuft golden yellow : expanse of wings 26 millims. 



St. Paulo {Bates). Type, B.M. 



This ia a pretty little species, but duller in colouring than 

 any other in the genus. 



5. EUNOMIA SARCOSOMA, n. Sp. 



Palpi white in front, black behind ; frons white ; top of head and an- 

 tennae black ; collar white-edged in front, golden greenish at the sides, 

 dark grey in the centre ; pterygodes black, edged internally with 

 golden greenish ; a white spot on the shoulders ; thorax black, with a 

 bronzy dot in front and an elongated bronzy whitish spot behind ; 

 glandular drums bluish black : abdomen scarlet ; a central longitu- 

 dinal brown band running through the first four segments, on the 

 lateral margins of which are bronzy dots ; terminal, lateral, and anal 

 tufts scarlet : wings as in the other species, excepting that the black 

 border of secondaries is narrower, that there is less black at base, and 

 that the primaries have a greenish- white dot close to the base : pectus 

 below black, coxae golden greenish ; trochanters white ; abdomen 

 scarlet, with whitish patches in the centre of each segment, anus 

 yellow : expanse of wings 31 millims. 



Pacho, New Granada (Janson). Type, B.M. 



6. E.? MERRA = Lasioprocta merra, Wallengren, Wien. ent. Mon. iv. 

 p. 41. 



Callao. 



Character of E. andromacha, but smaller, Dr. Wallengren de- 

 scribes it as having dorsal abdominal reddish-fulvous spots, the 

 anus with black hairs : in this respect it agrees with no spe- 

 cies known to me ; possibly, however, it may be the male of 

 the following. Avhich has no anal tuft.
