Cat. phile Stgr. i. I. (194 f) seems to be allied to pinava hopfferi (22 c), but the upper surface is less pMle. 

 marked yellow and the under surface very different. Peru (Chanchamayo). 



Cat. zanclides Stgr. has formerly been in the market by the name of philonarche. As the figures exhibit, zanclides. 

 it differs considerably from the latter. Colombia (Cauca and Aguaca Valleys). 



Cat. zanciidoides Stgr. (194 f) differs from zanclides more above than beneath; the under surface is zancUdoi- 

 not so distinctly and less marked white, and on the discal band of the hindwing it shows less violet colouring. "^^^ 



Peru. Similar to watkinsi. 



Cat. subtoca sp. nov. (194 f) is before us in a female specimen. It is above entirely different from s-iMoca. 

 toca (22 f), but beneath similar, though it is without the conspicuous yellow spot at the end of the discal cell 

 of the hindwing. Venezuela (Merida). It also resembles seitzi (194 d). 



Cat. scurra Stgr. i. I. (194 c) from Peru resembles leucophaea (194 d), but it is much darker, also in seurm. 

 the marking, especially beneath, it is very different. 



Cat. cheiidonides sp. nov. (194 g). Of this species 1 cj from Peru (Chanchamayo) and 1 5 from Venezuela chelidoni- 

 (Merida) is before us. We have figm-ed the upper surface of the $ and the under stirface of the (J. In the '^^^•

Cat. variabilis sp. nov. (194 g) varies considerably in the extent of the greyish yellow colouring above, variahUls. 

 and also beneath the markings, particularly the yellow marginal spots, differ in size. Colombia. 



Cat. latiplaga sp. nov. (194 g). Two ^^ of it are before us; the specimen figured from beneath has a laUplaga. , 



much narrower and very light yellow basal area of the hindwing; this difference is also present beneath. Colom- '«'* '* ■^^*' _f

habitat being mentioned). 



Cat. pallens sp. nov. (194 g) resembles zanciidoides (194 f) above, but the yellow discal spots of the iiallens. 

 forewings are shorter, arranged in the shape of a uniform band, the submarginal spots are smaller and in the 

 posterior two areas absent, the hindwing also with a uniformly broad discal band, the marginal and submarginal 

 spots only traceable. Beneath different from all the species known by the pale coloming. Peru. 



Presumably some of the species above mentioned as new species are identical with such that have 

 been described in an irrecognizable way by older authors. As we have now figured them, it wUl no more be 

 difficult to recognize them from the ,, types" that may yet be extant. 



Daptonoura daguana Fassl ^. ,,A large florinda-tovm (23 b) with an expanse of 64 mm and a broader daguana. 

 black border of all the wings; the hindwing towards the anal margin passing frorn the bright orange colom'ing 

 over into an intense chrome-colour. Beneath with a much broader black cell-end spot of the sulphiur-coloured 

 forewings. Hindwing beneath intensely chrome-coloured (not sulphur-coloured as in the tj'pical form). In 

 the 2 mm broad black distal margin two, likewise deep yellow, long streak-shaped spots." San Jose (180 m 

 above the sea-level) on the Rio Dagua in West Colombia, thus very close at the shore of the Pacific Ocean. 



Dapt. caesarea Fruhst. ,,A distinguished species, allied to florinda Btlr. from Central America and caemrea. 

 to inaequalis Btlr. from Peru, above magnificently light yellow with a very narrow black cell-end. Under surface 

 of forewing sulphur-coloured, of hindwing orange. Cell-end broadly encircled with black, distal margin rela- 

 tively narrow and as in polyhymnia Fldr. covered with small, yellowish maculae. West Colombia (Rio Magda- 

 lena). — ■ Scarcely different from polyhymnia (23 b). .^^^t/^^ 



Dapt. vecticlusa Btlr. = Appias drusilla Or. (21 f) — according to Kirby, Catal. Diurn. Lepid. i-cctidusa. 



Dapt. flippantha F. is according to Kirby's Catal. Diurn. Lepid. = limnoria Godt. (p. 75). flippanfha. 



Dapt. lycimnia narmia Fruhst. ,, Upper surface purely white, by the apical spotting allied to maeotis narmia. 

 Fruhst. from Peru. The under surface, however, is absolutely identical with pantoporia Hhn. from Espu'itu 

 Santo and Minas Geraes. Another form, by the distal margin of the hindwing being covered with small white 

 dots, somewhat resembles phazania Fruhst. from Bahia and forma daulia Fruhst. from Colombia, only the 

 margin is like in pantoporia very narrow, but covered with white not with yellow as in pantoporia (forma othoca othoca. 

 nov.).'' Patria ? — ■ semiobscurata Weym. from Ecuador (Macas) has very broad black marking above and beneath ; semiobscu- 

 the larger distal half of the hindwing beneath is dark brown, the proximal bordering of this marking very ™'*'- 



irregular and faded. — • lycimnia is said also to occur in Argentina (Missiones). 



Dapt. florinda ab. discocellularis Strand. The original description runs as follows: ,,A ^ withoiit the discocelht- 

 patria being stated, distinguished by the forewing, according to the figure in Biologia Centrali- Americana, ^'"■'«- 



exhibiting also above a black discoceilular band, which, according to the original description, is in the typical ' .
