896 INSECTA, LEVIDOPTEIIA. 
which Lederer separated paniscus and sylmus from typical Cyclopides, is inad- 
vertently applied to C. exornatus, Feld., and allies. 
Butler states (Oat. Lep. Fabr. pp. 259-287) that Ilesp. pandia, Moore, 
= 2'elegonus thyrsis, Fabr.; Tamyris laonome, Swains., = iZcip. amiatus= 
Pyrrhopyga amycluSf Cram. ; Pap. ladon. Cram., = Ilesp. exclamationis, Fabr., 
var. ; Cobalus pldlemon, Fabr., is distinct from Pap. areas, Dru., and Pap. 
Jiyas, Oram. Valuable notes, too numerous to notice in detail, are attached 
to almost every species of this family described by Fabricius’; and the fol- 
lowing species are figured i}.c. pis. 2& 3): — Cyclopides maro, Epargyreus 
nero, E. mathias, Pamphila taumas, P. phocion, Hesperia alexis, II. excla- 
mationis, Cobalus remus, C, saturnus, C. philemon, C. pygmeeus, Telegonus 
lucas, Tagiades clito, Proteides coridon, Hesperilla gremius, Taractrocera 
meemus, Ceratriehia phocion, C. nothus. 
Trimen (Tr. E. Soc. 1870, pp. 385-390) publishes the following remarks 
on South-African species of this family : — Pgrgus diomus, Ilopff., is distinct 
from vindex, Oram. ; Cyclopides syrinx and Pamphila niveostriga. Trim., 
$ described; Rhopalocampta vahnora,yidX\QXi^v., = Ismene pisistratus,PQhr. ; 
Jlorestan, Cram., is distinct. 
Butler describes in full the following species of Hesperidcc briefly cha- 
racterized by Herrich-Schiifier : — Goniuris cenis, Tr. E. Soc. 1870, p. 493, 
hab. — ? ; Telegonus cepio, p. 494, T. latus, p. 495, both from Venezuela. 
Minot describes the male of Hesperia metea, Scudd., and remarks that 
H. pocahontas and II. quadraquina, Scudd., are identical. P. Bost. Soc. xii. 
pp. 319, 820. 
Nisoniades. Scudder and Burgess (pp. cit. xiii. pp. 282-30G) describe and 
figure the asymmetrical male organs of the following known N. American 
species : — N. persius, N. brizo, N. martialis, N. Juve?ialis, N. tristis. Asym- 
metry also exists in Achlyodes. N. costalis, AVestw., probably =N. Juvenalis. 
N. Vherminieri and N. catidlus are probably not true Nisoniades. Several new 
species are also characterized by descriptions of the male organs ; but nothing 
is said of the characters of the females. 
Thanaos tages. Larva described by Buckler, Ent. M. M. vi. pp. 233, 234. 
Syrichthus orbifer, Hiibn. Staudinger attempts to clear up the synonymy 
of this species and its allies. Ilor. Ent. Ross. vii. pp. 84-86.

Regensb. 1870, p. 159. 
PamphiliiUB, subfam. nov. Includes ‘^all the genera having a short thick 
club of the Pamphila type to the antennm, and terminating at a right angle 
in a short pointed hook, such as Proteides, Carystus, Pamphila.^’ Butler, 
P. Z. S. 1870, p. 728. 
Ceratriehia, g. n., Butler, Oat. Lep. Fabr. p. 274. Allied to Carystus and 
Cobalus, but less robust, wings narrower, hind wings subpyriform, body more 
slender, but head very large, eyes prominent, antennae longer, ending in an 
obsolete hook ; hind wings beneath with a circular series of subhyaline spots. 
Type Pap. nothus, Fabr. 
Taractrocera, g. n., Butler, 1. c. p. 279. Allied to Pyrgus ; wings narrower, 
palpi erect, antennae shorter, with a distinct argynniform club. Type Ilesp. 
mcevius, Fabr. 
Spathilepia, g. n., Butler, Ent. M. M. vii. p. 57, Antennae as in Eudamus, 
wings shaped nearly as in Telegonus, but front wings always more or less
