12 Psyche [March-June 
Pseudochrysops n.g. 
(figs, bor, pi. 2,7) 
Type, and only known species: Hemiargus bornoi Comstock- 
Huntington 1943 (Ann. New York Acad. Sci. 45 : 102-104, 
“Pont Beudet, Haiti,” pi. 1, figs. 18 9,19 underside; Comstock, 
1944, Rhopalocera, in Miner, Scient. Survey Porto Rico and 
Virgin Isis. 12 : 498-499, fig. 16 venation). 
Two male paratypes and one female paratype (all ex coll. 
Am. Mus. Nat. Hist., Mus. Comp. Zool.) investigated: prep. 
496, 604, 9 605, all “Pont Beudet, Haiti, about 100 ft., 3-4- 
III-1922.” 
iEdeagus slim, elongated, 1 mm. long, suprazonal portion 
equal to subzonal one; ventral part of subzonal sheath slightly 
notched distally, acuminate in lateral view; vesical opening 
high, about half-way up from the zone, alulae small, Chapman’s 
process slight, vesica weak, unarmed, the whole organ vaguely 
intermediate between Chilades and Freyeria } Sagum rudi- 
mentary, in the form of two weak ill-defined lobes produced 
from the zone ventrad. Furca well developed, in length sub- 
equal to the subzonal portion of the aedeagus, of a conventional 
subfamilial shape, but with a broad membraneous lining giving 
it a lobed appearance in situ. Falx and uncus lobe different in 
type from Chilades although related to it in general elongation, 
much more strongly developed than in Freyeria , but otherwise 
definitely allied to the latter. Forearm more than a third of a 
mm. long, slightly overtopping the uncus lobe, remarkably 
slender and straight, very gradually tapering to a minutely 
hooked point, elegantly elbowed, more finely drawn and direct 
that in Freyeria , similar in these features to Lycceides melissa 
Edwards, but combined with a differently shaped, compara- 
tively high shoulder, as in Freyeria , only finer in outline. Hu- 
merulus more than twice shorter (horizontal extension) than 
forearm (vertical extension), remaining evenly slender, and 
hardly thicker (vertical extension) than forearm (horizontal 
extension), for slightly over half of its length from elbow point, 
then abruptly expanding to almost double of its vertical exten- 
sion to form a delicate, small but conspicuous shoulder, its out- 
144, n) ought to be also checked in relation to faga {op. cit. : 823-824, pi. 144, 
m) . Both are doubtfully placed by Draudt in Scolitantides auct. 
1 Freyeria is less close to Chilades than to Lycceides , its nearest ally.
