ANISODES. By L. B. Prout.

to which this indefinite description could loosely be applied; but as neither really fits it, it is necessary to make 
them both known by figures and differential characters; see the two following. 
A. rufifrons sp. n. (13 i). 36—39 mm. Face entirely red, or at most with a white line across lower rufijmns. 
edge. Hindfemur densely fringed with long hair, a tuft from femoro-tibial joint and some fringe to near end 
of tibia. Termen of hindwing markedly crenulate. Tone redder than in ignea, produced by irregular mottling; 
markings dark grey, fairly well expressed. Cushi, Huanuco, 1900 m, 4 $$ in the Tring Museum, including the 
type; Carabaya: Oconeque, Agualani and Limbani, 7000—9500 feet. 
A. mionectes sp. n. (13 i). <$, 33—37 mm. Extremely similar to the preceding, particularly in the mionecles. 
yellow vertex, strong white cell-spots (that of the hindwing, however, on an average still larger) and general 
pose of the grey markings, including the close approximation of the median shade to the cell-spot. Sometimes 
scarcely, if at all, distinguishable except bv the structure and the face, but generally smoother-looking, a more 
extended greyish suffusion pervading the wings, accompanied by a reduction in the strength of the dark-grey 
markings; the yellow subterminal spots (near apex and in cellule 3) stand out more clearly, though well devel¬ 
oped in both species. Face with lower half or % whitish; hindfemur shortly fringed, tibia almost smooth; 
wing-margins appreciably less crenulate. Oconeque, Carabaya, 7000 feet, 4 in the Tring Museum, including 
the type; Cushi; Huancabamba (Cerro de Pasco). 
A. ferruginata Warr. Larger (40 mm), perhaps intermediate in colour between ignea (13 h) and mfi- ferruginata. 
frons (13 i), grey suffusion developed along costa of fore wing and the principal veins of both 
wings; vertex also suffused with dark grey. Forewing with costa slightly straighter than in the allies, termen 
slightly more curved towards apex. Cell-dots white, but minute, surrounded by some dark grey suffusion. 
Lines much as in rufifrons, yellow subterminal spots not developed. Face with lower % whitish. Hindlegs lost 
in the unique type, a from Paramba, W. Ecuador. 
A. rufulata Warr. (13 i). On an average somewhat smaller than aurantiata ; less vividly coloured. Hind- rufulaia. 
leg of <3 simpler (or more liable to denudation?), a light tuft on femur and a femoro-tibial pencil. Postmedian 
line more connected; subterminal maculation slighter. In the typical form, the cell-spots are almost as in 
rufifrons; in a rather frequent aberration they are quite small, though remaining white; in either case their 
dark circumscription is very slender, at times very weak. Carabaya, common, from 3000 to 6000 feet; also 
some Colombian localities. A few rather large examples are known from Huancabamba (Cerro de Pasco) and 
from Chulumani (Bolivia). griseifascia subsp. nov. (— griseomixta Schaus in coll., nec Warr.) is appreci- griseifascia. 
ably paler and has the grey markings heavier, the median shade particularly broad, the clear yellow subterminal 
spots .conspicuous. The hair-pencil of the hindleg looks longer than in the type, but the agreement is in all 
other respects so close that the status seems assured. Costa Rica and Panama, the type $ from Sitio, in the 
Tring Museum. 
A. ockendeni Prout (14 c). In structure, size and coloration near rufulata griseifascia but with the ockendeni. 
markings more oblique, the median shade of the hindwing much straighter. The white cell-spot- of the hind¬ 
wing is never so large as in typical rufulata; commonly (as also that of the forewing) it has a rather sharp 
black circumscription. — ab. atridiscata nov., with the black circumscription of each cell-dot enlarged, is oc- atridiscata. 
casional, though rarer than in aurantiata. — Colombia to E. Bolivia, the longest series (including both the holo- 
types) from La Oroya. 
A. coenosata Warr. (14 c). Similar in shape to pintada, but scarcely larger than ockendeni. Hindleg coenosata. 
with femoro-tibial pencil. Grey suffusions almost as considerable as in pintada, chiefly costal, distal and at 
some of the veins. Cell-marks grey, with heavy black circumscription. Can scarcely be a remarkable aber¬ 
ration of ockendeni, as (in addition to the difference in shape) the postmedian series of dots is almost parallel 
with the termen from the 1st median vein to the costa. Cushi, Huanuco, the type $ unique. 
A. pintada Dogn. (13 i). Somewhat like a much larger cckendeni with heavier grey shades and relat- pintada. 
ively larger cell-spots. Distal margin of forewing more oblique. Hindleg of <$ without hair-pencil. Loja (type) 
to S. E. Peru. 
A. fasciata Dogn. “37 mm. Yellow, irrorated with reddish, the lines thickened into bands of a reddish fasciata. 
lilac-grey, the discal spots white, on the forewing quite small, on the hinclwing a little larger. Forewing with 
an oblique antemedian band not reaching the costa; an equally oblique postmedian, its inner edge touching 
the cell-spot, produced distally in shades on the veins and ceasing at the subcostal; a thick subterminal, inter¬ 
rupted between veins 3 and 4, 6 and 7 and accompanied by black vein-dots; a terminal series of reddish dots 
preceded by small spot of the ground-colour, without irroration before the dots. Hindwing with the antemedian 
hardly discernible, the subterminal not interrupted, the rest as on the forewing; termen rounded and slightly
