distinguished by the two discoidal nervures of the fore-wing being 
parallel (as in most genera), whilst the upper one is flexuous in Batesia. 
Ageronia is distinguished from all genera by well-marked peculiarities 
of neuration, especially the strongly inflected lower disco-cellular 
nervule of the fore- wing.

? . Larger than the ^J . Fore- wing less produced at the apex ; 
hind-wing more broadly rounded at the anal angle. Colour and mark- 
ings of the upper and under-surface the same as in the ^ . 
Eemale specimens from the Amazons differ from those received 
from New Granada, in the apical portion of the anterior wing being 
red ; the same part in New Granada specimens being black as in the (^ . 
The species is distinguished from all others by the clear pinkish- 
vermillion colour of the under-surface of the hind-wings, wliich have 
only a short black line along the lower disco-cellular nervule, and 
sometimes a sub-marginal dusky line extending from the anal border. 
Dr. Eelder remarks (I. e.) that the specimen he received from the 
Upper Eio Negro differed from Bogota examples in being larger, and 
having the brassy-green belt of the hind-wings much narrower. All 
the Amazons specimens belong to this same local form.

Differs from P. Prola in being much larger, with the fore-wing 
more broadly rounded at the apex, and less incurved on the outer 
margin. The hind-wing has a row of three black spots in the glossy 
green belt. The under-side of the hind- wing is vermillion-red, clouded 
with blackish towards the apex, and marked with black lines as in 
P. Procilla (Hewits., Exot. Butt., f. 2). There is a row of ill-defined 
dusky ocelli across the hind-wing beneath, with black pupils. The 
tip of the fore-wing beneath is rich dark brown, and there are no red 
spots within the cell.

constant in the score or so of examples which I have examined.
