Oh the upper-side this species is much like Hewitson's figure of 

 T. Orgia ^ (111. Diurn. Lep., t. 43, f. 176), but the under-side proves 

 it to be a much more near ally of T. Ophelia. 



Thecla Teleontes, s^p. n. 



<? . Allied to T. Orgia, Hew. The ground colour of the wings beneath dark 

 smoky-brown, with purplish reflections. The black spot on the secondaries much 

 larger, and the outer (marginal) green line wanting, except near the anal angle. 



Hah. : Interior of Colombia. Mus. Druce. 



This species is also in the collection of Messrs. Godman and 

 Salvin from the same locality. 



Thecla stigmatos, sp. n. 

 $ . Allied to T. punctum, Herr.-Schaff. Primaries below unspotted, with the 

 base bright red (which red extends some distance along the costa). Secondaries 

 without the red spot at the anal angle, and with the two spots on the costal margin 

 very much larger. 



Hab. : Interior of Colombia. Mus. Druce. 

 Thecla Ctdonia, sp. n. 



(J. Upper-side: primaries uniform dull jet-black, with a minute opalescent 

 marking at the end of the cell. Secondaries brilliant dark purplish-blue, rather 

 narrowly and evenly bordered with black. Under-side : pattern of wings exactly as 

 in T. janthina, Hew., but ground colour somewhat deeper. 



Hah. : Interior of Colombia. Mus. Druce. 



This beautiful species is allied to T. janthina. Hew., and T. Sisfa, 

 Hew., from which it is at once distinguished by the black fore-wings 

 and by the darker blue hind-wings. 



This species is also in IVlessrs. Godman and Salvin's collection 

 from the same locality. 



Thecla Lemnos, sp. n. 



<? . Allied to T. Serapis, Godm.-Salv., but the blue on upper surface darker and 

 more extensive, the yellow spot between the median branches on the hind-wing is 

 wanting, and there is a large yellow spot at the anal angle as in T. Balius, Godm.- 

 Salv. On the under-side the discal line on the hind-wings is much more irregular, 

 and terminates in a large circular spot on the costal margin. The yellow at the anal 

 angle being almost entirely replaced by black. 



Hah. : Interior of Colombia. Mus. Druce. 

 In size this species equals T. Balius.
