330 NAROPE. By H. Fetjhstoefee. 



band, behind the middle distally bordered with whitish, and beyond the cell an undulate row of small black 

 spots, of which the two nearest to the liinder angle are dotted with wliite. EcuadDf . 



cyllabarus. N. cyllabarus Weshc. Apes of the forewing rather pointed, distal margin slightly convex. Upper sur- 



face rust-brown or fox-red, towards the distal margin somewhat darkened; the latter itself pale brown, the 

 dark tone thus forming a vague band. Before the anterior median vein near the distal margin a black, white- 

 pupilled spot. Under surface ochre-yellow, spotted and marbled with brown, but not sharply. From the costal 

 2 diffuse transverse bands across the cell; from the whitish apex an oblique, diffuse nebulous band runs towards 

 the middle of the imier margin. A black dot in the distal part of the cell and another between the raclials before 

 the distal margin. Hindwing likewise rust-brown with distinctly defined dark submarginal band. Under 

 surface pale brown, costa striated, in the middle of the costal area a dark, wliite-pupilled spot ; the rest of the 

 wing mdistinctly spotted and marbled with darker; across the middle of the wing a diffuse dark obhque band. 

 Scent-spot as in the preceding species. Cayenne, Colombia, Amazons, Bolivia. 



panniculus. N. panniculus Stick, cj : head, palpus, antenna, body and upper surface of the" wings smoke-brown, 



in specimens from BoUvia darker, nearly blackish. Forewing right-angled-triangular, costal margin ciurved, 

 apex sharp, almost rectangular, distal margin fairly straight, hinder angle rounded-rectangular, hindmargin 

 straight, about in the middle somewhat folded. In the posterior part of the median area a large, rounded, 

 velvety spot of darker colour ; this is placed proximally to the cell, its anterior extremity nearly touches the upper 

 median vein, chstally it remains about 5 mm. from the margin of the wing and posteriorly it extends beyond 

 the submedian but with its boundary not sharply defined. Under surface lighter, irregularly spotted. Base 

 darker shaded, then 2 abbreviated nebulous bands across the cell, in the apical area a small white spot; scent- 

 organ as in the preceding. Hmdwing above unicolorous with Hght oval scent-spot. Under surface hghter, 

 slightly sprinkled with brownish, with indistinctly' defined nebulous band beyond the cell; beyond the middle 

 of the costa a small wliite dot. Paraguay, Bolivia (Rio Yuntas). 1 o from Matto Grosso in coll. Feuhstoefee. 

 is smaller than Paraguay o(J, paler grey-brown, beneath hght earth-coloured, liindwing with large Hver-Uke 

 intramedian ocellus, broadly filled in with white. 



Hindwing of the (J above without scent-spot, but with a small hau'-pencil arismg in the cell and partially con- 

 cealed in a pouch-like fold. 



albopunc- N. albopunctum Stich. Head and body smoke-brown above, wliitish grey-brown beneath. Wings 



turn, dark smoke-brown above, without markings except a small, pure white spot in the apical area beliind the fifth 

 subcostal vein, near the cUstal margin. Under surface marbled and shaded vdth hghter and darker brown. 

 Costal margin dark, \vith short wliitish striation. Starting from it two dark, irregularly defined transverse 

 bands, one across the cell, terminating at the median; at the margin near the base a tliin, anteriorly chrected 

 hair -tuft ^vithout scent -scale spot. Hindwdng about triangular, with -convex margins. Costal margin 

 somewhat less convex, apex rounded, distal margin curved, shghtly undulate, at the anterior mechan vein 

 obtusety angled. Hinder angle obtuse. Upper surface without markings, liindmarginal area more thinly scaled, 

 pale grey-brown, m the cell and along the submedian long bro^\^l hairs. On the wall of the cell, before the ori- 

 gui of the posterior median vein, a small hair-pencil, extending beyond the mecUan, and partially concealed 

 in a pouch-like fold on the lower median. Under surface brownish, strongly watered and dotted with whitish, 

 particularly in the proximal half, wliicli is sharply bomided by a narrow brown stripe running obhquely from 

 the distal part of the costal margin to the distal quarter of the hindmargin. In the distal part of the wdng 

 an undulated row of black-brown, hghter-bordered dots, about halfway between the end of the cell and the 

 margin of the wings; the first dot sometimes A^ith wlute centre. Then follows a vague chain of dark spots 

 similarly arranged and afterwards copious whitish marbling, the distal margin narrowly brown. Length 

 of the forewing 28 mm. Per^^Ma-r-capata). 



Addenda. 



inihstorferi. P. 293. Opsiphanes fruhstorferi Rob. (63 a) should be inserted before sulcius. Black-brown above, 



the forewing with white oblique band, broken in its posterior part, arising in the middle of the costa and ter- 

 minating in a narrow point before the chstal margin at the ijosterior median vein. In the apex of the fore- 

 wing 3 small white spots, Mndwing with hghter, irregular, broad submarginal hne. Under surface brownish 

 grey, uniformly striated, with 2 larger, and between them 2 smaller ocelh. $ similar, larger, the apical 

 spots of the forewing and the submarginal Une of the hindwing more chstinct. South Brazil: Sta. Catharina, 

 Lages. Very local; I foimd it only at the sources of the Uruguay, where the water-courses traverse those wooded 

 places which occupy the valleys of the Campos. The butterflies fly near the ground and regularly frequent 

 the sap exuding from small trees, at which they feed for hours. Time of fhglit the end of December to February 

 and March.
