154 PTERONYMIA. Bij li. Haensch. 



inania. P. inania Hsch. is a similar, larger species with broader wings and deep black-brown margins. Be- 



hind the end of the cell is placed at the costal margin an oblong yellow-brown spot. On the under sur- 

 face there are numerous roundish white dots in the distal margin. This species, like the preceding, comes 

 from the border of eastern Ecuador and Colombia. 



serrata. P. serrata Hsch. has still larger and broader, slightly yellowish wings with strongly dentate distal 



border. The half-band at the end of the cell of the forewing is proximally widened. On the under sur- 

 face there are quadrate, yellow-brown, dark-margined spots at the distal margin of the hindwing between 

 the white double spots. This species flies with Dismejiitis theudelinda (41 d) and other similar forms in the 

 mountain forests of the eastern chain of the Cordilleras of Ecuador at elevations of from 2 — 3000 m. 



teresiia. P. te/esita Hew. (40 a, b), from eastern Ecuador, has broad wings, almost colourless in the J, with 



narrow dark margins. In the $ the wings are dusted with yellowish, especially the hindwing. The latter 

 has much broader distal border than in the (J. On the under surface the margins are dark red-brown, 

 with white dots in the apex of the forewing and at the distal margin of the hindwing. 



evonia. In P. evonia Hsch,., from Colombia, with. shorter wings, the $ is of a yellow-brown colour, especi- 



ally in the cell and at the end of the median of the forewing, and also at the proximal border of the 

 costal and distal margins and on the veins in the disc of the hindwing. The antenna is black. The 

 distal margin of the hindwing very broadly black. 

 sulmona. P. sulmona Hew., from Ecuador, is said to be similar to teresita, with narrower margins and black 



antenna. The base of the forewing and the hindwing are dusted with red-brown. On the under surface 

 / there is a white spot in the apex of each wing and the base of the hindwing is yellow. 



Ruesa. P. suesa Hew., from Ecuador, has transparent wings with yellowish sheen and narrow brown mar- 



gins and half-band across the end of the cell of the forewing. The 'club of the antenna is yellow-brown. 

 On the under surface the margins are yellow-brown, with 2 white dots in the apex of the forewing and a 

 row of double dots at the distal margin of the hindwing. 

 ihabena. P. thabena Hew. (40 a), from the eastern ridge of the Andes in Ecuador, has broad, transparent 



wings, the forewing with yellowish, the hindwing with bluish sheen. Unfortunately only $$ are known of 

 this and the following similar forms, so that the genus cannot be exactly fixed. ' The marking recalls 

 forms of zerlina. The distal margin of the hindwing especially is very broad, and on the underside, where 

 it is red-brown, provided with whitish double dots. The antenna has yellow-brown club. — A local form 

 siantis. from Bolivia, which I call stantis forvi. nov., is distinguished by a narrow black half-band at the end of 

 aegineta. the cell of the hindwing. — From Ecuador comes another similar form, aegineta Hew. It has the distal 

 margin of the hindwing strongly dentate proximally and a proximally widened half-band at the end of the 

 cleobulina. cell of the forewing. — ■ cleobulina Hew., from Bolivia, probably also belongs here. It has the hindwing 

 like thabena, but in the cell of the forewing in addition a black bar, and at the black distal mar- 

 gin a projection in the direction of the somewhat prolonged half-band at the end of the cell. 



devliciilata. P. denticulata Hscli. (40 b), from Bolivia, has black margins and half-band at the end of the cell of 



the forewing; the distal margins are proximally dentate. The club of the antenna is yellow-brown. — In 

 disiMena. dispaena Hew. (40 a), from the same district, the margins are brown; subcostal of the forewing reddish; 

 antenna black. In the $ the margins are broader and partly red-brown. 

 alula. P. alida Heiv. (40 a), from Venezuela, has narrower margins and a broad yellow half-band behind 



the uniformly broad half-band at the end of the cell. It closely resembles Efiscada alidella. 

 ealcjiria. P. calgiria Schaus (?= dircennoides Stgr. i. I.), from Bolivia, is said to have transparent yellowish 



wings, with narrow dark brown margins and veins, and also curved half-band at the end of the cell of the 

 forewing; behind this there are yellowish spots at the costal and distal margins; also at the base and in 

 the end of the cell of the forewing. The distal margin of the hindwing is broadest at the 2"'' median vein 

 and in the apex. Club of the antenna yellow-brown. 

 iicjranes. P. tigranes Godm. & Salv. (40 b), from Central America, has colourless wings with narrow dark 



margins, somewhat broader in the $; in the forewing red-brown subcostal, and also a broad dark and 

 timagencs. white half-band at the end of the cell. — tittiagenes Godm. & Salt., from Mexico, at elevations of up to 

 about 2000 m., differs from the preceding by the red-brown margins, only the inner margin of the fore- 

 alcmena. wing is blackish. The half-band at the end of the cell is much smaller. ■ — alcmena Godm. d Salv., from 

 Guatemala, is somewhat smaller, with broader, reddish margins. The dark and the white half-band at the 

 end of the cell are larger and more obliquely placed. 

 aclina. P. adina Hew., from Venezuela, is a similar species to tigranes, without red-brown subcostal and 



with oblong white spot at the costal margin of the forewing. The costal margin of the hindwing is 

 strongly arched, the middle discocellular very long and curved. 

 eulyra. P. eulyra Fldr., from Venezuela, is said to be similar to Efiscada alidella, but much smaller, with 



white submarginal spots on the under surface.
