JTOTITATES ZOOLOGICAB XXIII. 1916. 155 



Forewing with costal margin proximally more strongly darkened than in netrix, 

 the beginning of the subbasal line less sharp ; antemedian row of vein-dots 

 accompanied distally by a stronger elongate dot or dash on the fold ; discal dot 



rather larger ; terminal line simple, thick, as in cordovaria Guen. Hindioing 



with apex rather less rectangular (intermediate in shape towards cordovaria), the 

 white cell-mark quite differently shaped from that of the allies, being considerably 

 shortened (the red patch on which it stands consequently enlarged), its distal 

 margin retracted after crossing R 2 , its posterior part thus restricted to a very 

 narrow streak along the distal edge of DC 3 .

 Pasco (E. Boettger) ; S. Domingo, Carabaya, 6000 ft., November 1901, wet season

 Mas., the type from Huancabamba. 



10. Ergavia roseivena diphora subsp. no v. 



c?, 35-38 mm. Smaller than name-typical roseivena Prout, more recalling 

 biangulifera Prout (which I now believe to be another race of roseivena), but rather 

 more deeply coloured — more rufescent or brownish ; lines about as in the latter ; 

 differs from both in having a conspicuous tnft of raised blackish scales on DC 2 " 3 of 

 the hindwing as well as of the forewing, which is possibly of sufficient morphological 

 significance to indicate a distinct species ; dark submarginal markings beneath 

 rather weak, a good deal broken. 



Sapucay, Paraguay, September 13, 1901 (type), November 20, 1902, January 6, 

 1903, November 1904, December 11, 1904 (W. Foster); La Plata Town, a worn 

 example. All in coll. Tring Mus. 



11. Ergavia eris sp. nov. 



$, 44 mm. Exceedingly like roseivena Prout, especially on the upperside ; 

 similar in structure. Face and palpus redder, more irrorated and spotted with 

 black. Wings more mixed with olivaceous, especially in distal area. 



Foreioing with the basal and discal raised tufts not, or scarcely, mixed with 

 black, the basal not very dense ; costal margin proximally mixed with rufous, and 

 much dotted with black ; postmedian line less acute outward behind R 3 , merely 



forming a rounded lobe, on which stands a scarcely perceptible tooth at M 1 . 



Hindwing with the wavy lines stronger, one immediately behind the cell-mark 

 particularly well developed, somewhat thickened; postmedian line with much less 

 pronounced tooth outward behind R 3 and especially behind M 1 . 



Underside easily distinguishable from that of roseivena by being much less 

 pale, the costal margin of the forewing with distinct dark dots or minute strigulae, 

 both wings with the postmedian line of the upperside conspicuously reproduced. 



Calama, Rio Madeira, below Rio Machados, August — October 1907 (W. Hoff- 

 manns). Type in coll. Tring Mns. A rather worn ? , precisely similar and scarcely 

 larger, from Rio Demerara, in the same collection. 



12. Hedyle albipannosa sp. nov. 



S, 44-50 mm. Similar to heliconiaria Guen., but considerably larger. 

 Antennal pectination rather longer, tapering more rapidly and ceasing earlier. 

 Both wings rather less narrow, with termen fuller. 



Foreiving with a broad whitish streak from base along M (extending about
