Hesperia callineura, Felder, Reise Nov., Lep. iii. p. 513, pi. lxxi. figs. 9, 10 (1866). 

 ? Plastingia callineura, Distant, Rhop. Mai. p. 396, pi. xxxv. fig. 26 (1886) ; Watson, Hesp. Ind. 

 p. 113 (1891). 



Distant's description (I. c.) applies rather to the next species than to the true 

 callineura of Felder, who correctly says of the hind wing below " venis ferrugineo-rufo 

 marginatis." His plate, however, does not admit of identification with any of the 

 species in coll. Elwes.
