Type 1 specimen Rio Janeiro, Bow. coll. Length 5 mm. var. 
A, So. Brazil, anterior spots joined, forming a band and rear 
spots a lunule. 
Antennae nearly as long as body, joints 2, 3 nearly equal, 
front of head and thorax convex smooth, elytra smooth shining 
obsoletely punctate, the basal spots are humeral and next the 
scutel, the other spots are placed evenly in line just back of the 
middle; near similis and guttata but without the elytral punc- 
tures of either, and the rear spots are much nearer median. 
Malacosoma (Exora) maculatum sp. nov. 
Size of olivacea, color light yellow, elytra alutaceous with 
punctuation, antennae, tibiae and tarsi, scutel and 5 spots on 
each elytron black, body beneath more or less brown on the 
breast and segments, thorax with, 5 spots indicated in dark red. 
Types 5 examples San Augustin, Mapiri, 3500 ft. ix 95 
Stuart. Length 6 mm. Bow. coll. 
Var. a, thoracic spots shown in brown, median spots on either 
side joined. Cochabamba, Bolivia, Germ. 
Antennae about two-thirds length of body, joints 2, 3 about 
equal, upper joints lighter color, head with well marked trans- 
verse groove, vertex convex, thorax with wide, though not deep, 
median lateral foveae and with 5 spots indicated in color, 2 
lateral, 2 median with an apical between, scutel black, elytra 
with punctuation more marked, but still semi shiny, the spots on 
each side are a subbasal humeral and median, two median 
directly in their rear and the fifth large rounded, subapical, in 
the variety the median are joined together, and the thoracic 
spots are brown; near olivacce Oliv. but that species has 4 series 
of spots and this onfy 3. 
Chthoneis Baly, as at present used, seems to contain rather 
incongruous forms. It was founded upon apicipennis from 
Colombia this species has joints 2, 3 of antennae very short, 
equal, the following joints compressed and elongate; a smooth 
thorax and unarmed hind tibiae, then followed species with 
foveate, thorax (albicollis) in 1880 Jacoby added apicalis (type 
in my coll.) (also Godman and Salvin, Brit. Mus.?) though ap-
