1. Anaea rosae Fassl. caucana subsp. nov. 



8 . Fore wing with smaller subapical spots which are reduced 

 proximally, and the bands becoming indistinct posteriorly. Fringe 

 liver-brown (xiv) and a slight marginal dusting of this colour. Hind 

 wing with a vestige of the bluish costal spot. Distal margin bordered 

 with liver-brown which merges into the ground-colour. 



Underside with reduced white markings, and the spot in 7 on the 

 hind wing smaller. 



Cauca Valley : Colombia, four $ $ . 



2. Dasyopthalma rusina Godt. ab. donckieri ab. nov.

? . Upperside with bands vestigial, and blue areas reduced. Fore 

 wing with vestiges of the three subapical spots. Band marked by small 

 spot on the inner margin and vestigial to vein 3, not present above this. 

 Blue area smaller. Hind wing with band vestigial, marked by a spot

Underside of fore wing with costal band absent. Postdiscal band
