I jaliscana.

are crescent-shaped, and the white, streak-like apical spots are absent , the black distal margin is narrower. 

 In the shape of the wings it agrees more with erimia (22 g). 



p. 78: In Hesperocharis jaliscana Schaus, trom Mexico (Guadalajara), the cf is white, the ? lemon- 

 coloured, both with black apical and distal-marginal markings as far as the third median vein. Hindwing 

 beneath of a beautiful yellow with a red spot at the base, a black spot behind the cell and a row of smoky 

 gi-ej' angular spots at the costal margin and apex. Similar to Hes23. crocea. 



Hesperocharis graphites Bates, from Guatemala, is large, yellow with black marginal markings and 

 less sharply black submarginal ones, black median spot on the forewing; under surface with much broken 

 black markings and ochre-yellow cell on the forewing. 



Hesperocharis paranensis Schaus, from Parana (Castro), is white with slight greenish tint, distal 

 half of the costal margin narrowlj- black, small triangular black spots in the apex and at the distal margin 

 of the forewing. Under surface of the forewing whitish, apex and costal margin yellowish, a black dot at 

 the base, antemedian, median and postmedian irregular and angulated black lines, which are interrupted 

 by the veins, small black spots at the distal margin between the veins. A small species. 



Hesperoch. (?) crocea Bates, from Costa Rica and Mexico, is above sulphur-yellow in the cf, deep 

 canary-3'ellow in the ?, in both sexes slightlj' dark marked at the apex of the forewing. The under surface 

 is ochre-yellow with the exception of the lighter posterior part of the forewing and has two blackish spots 

 at the costal margin of the hindwing and a similar spot at the point of origin of the 1. median vein. — 

 Apart from the very different facies, which agrees well with idiotica Btlr., crocea also differs somewhat from Hes- 

 perocharis in neuration, since the upper discocellular of the forewing is absent in the cf and very small in 

 the ? and the other two discocellulars of the forewing are of very unequal length (lower discocellular longer). 

 It apears to me now, since I have examined specimens which are verj^ probably congeneric with idiotica, 

 that the genus Heliochroma Btlr. is justified. In shape the species of this genus are very similar to Dap- 

 fonoura, though the hindwing is more elongated at the inner angle, whilst in neuration they more nearty 

 approach Hesperocharis. 



p. 81: Terias sinoides Cajyr., from Rio de Janeiro (Itaipu), is probably a small form oi phiale. Upper 

 surface white, shghtly yellowish, black distal margin of the forewing shorter and narrower than in phiale. 

 Hindwing without markings. Under surface with the exception of the posterior part of the forewing more 

 stronglj' yellow than the upper, in the middle of the hindwing some small blackish spots. 



Terias citrina portoricensis Deic, from Porto Rico, is smaller and lighter than the Cuban form, 

 the violet spots on the under surface are more flesh-coloured. 



Terias nigrocincta Dogn., from Ecuador (Loja), is similar to plataea, but has a lighter forewing and 

 the hindwing of the same colour. The black border of the inner margin of the forewing is joined to the 

 border of the distal margin, the orange-yellow stripes at the inner margin are absent. The hindwing has 

 large, proximally pointed, well separated black marginal spots. The j'eUowish under surface has on the 

 hindwing brownish spots and dark scales. 



Dismorphia ribbei Godm. & Salv., fi-om Panama, is similar to fortunata , but the subapical band of 

 the forewing is divided and there is a small white apical spot. — Is it a separate species ?
