b. The forewing with at least a yellow discal spot. 
H. fulvinota Btlr. (9 i). Brownish black, with slight purple .gloss. Sides of pronotum and of abdomen, fulvinota. 
as well as a triangular discal spot on the forewing yellow. Foretibia without spur. — Southern Brazil. 
H. eminens Schaus (9 i). Similar to fulvinota, but the base of both wings also yellow and the discal eminens. 
spot of the forewing usually larger. The yellow markings varying in extent. — Brazil: Tijuca. 
B. Porewing with 12 veins, subcostals 1 and 2 free, 3 and 4 on a Jong stalk: 
N esace/ Kirb y (= Pampa W kr., Btlr. preocc.). The figure of the venation which Butler gives 
is erroneous: Journ. Linn. Soc., Zool. XII, t. 28, Pig. 13 (1896). 
H. mystica Wkr. (9 i). Purple-black, without markings. The light spot on the forewing mentioned by myslica. 
Walker is due to loss of scaling. Antenna stout, distinctly incrassate distally, pectinations longer than the 
diameter of the shaft, slightly clavate, cross-veins of hindwing obliquely rounded, not angulate. Wings semi¬ 
transparent, more densely scaled towards the base. — Honduras, 1 $ (type) in the British Museum. 
H. splendens spec. nov. (9 k). A large species. $: Body and upperside of forewing metallic green, splendens. 
the fringes bluish; hindwing above glossy blue, beneath both wings glossy blue-green. The middle pectina¬ 
tions of the antenna more than twice as long as the diameter of the shaft. Foretibia without spur. Median 
2 of forewing widely separated from 1. Length of forewing 17 mm. — 1 $ from Cuzco, Peru, May 1901 
(Garlepp), in the Tring Museum. 
13. Genus: Stylura Burm. 
Distinguished from Harrisina by the two long caudal appendages which are present in both sexes, and 
usually consist of a stout proximal portion and a thinner distal one, but are sometimes almost evenly 
slender. 
S. forficula H.-Schdff. (9 k). Metallic greenish black-blue, slightly glossy. Wings semitransparent, forficula. 
with dark veins. Judging from the small number of specimens I have been able to examine more closely, there 
are several forms. But the differences (in colouring, shape of wings and venation) are so slight that it is 
not advisable to introduce any new names at present. S. drama Druce from Guatemala and Chiriqui in Panama, 
described and figured as Harrisina, also belongs here. — Mexico to Southern Brazil, also from the Leeward 
Islands. 
14. Genus: Setiocles H.-Schdff. 
Antennae incrassate distally, bipectinate. Wings very narrow, forewing with 11 veins, hindwing 
without innermarginal veins, 6 veins from the cell including the costal, radial 2 absent. In the forewing 
subcostal branches 1 and 2 on long stalk. — Only known from Cuba and the Bahamas. 
S. nana. The smallest American Zygaenid known. Body with white spots. Forewing with transparent nanu. 
spot below the cell and a white discal spot. Two subspecies. — nana H.-Schdff. (= pygmaeus Grote ), from 
Cuba, has a white spot on the hindwing. — In bahamensis Dyar (= albimacula Hmps.) (9 k), from the Ba- bahamensis. 
hamas, the white spot on the hindwing in absent. The larva on Ampelopsis; bluish white, with 7 narrow 
purple-brown longitudinal lines (1 median, and on each side 2 dorsal and 1 subventral), the lines connected 
by a transverse band on segment 5, anterior and posterior segments light red, on the penultimate segment 2 
small ocelli on each side. — Although Grote does not mention the white spots in his description of the body 
of pygmaeus, Dyar is probably correct in uniting pygmaeus with nana. 
15. Genus: Urodopsis gen. nov. 
Tongue and palpi well developed. Antenna (<$) bipectinate-dentate distally. Foretibia without spur, hind- 
tibia with one pair. In the forewing 11 or 12 veins, all free, or radial 3 and median 1 on a short stalk, sub¬ 
costal 1 and median 2 far proximal. In the hindwing 6 veins, the subcostal and the upper radial branch 
(veins 6 and 7) absent, the cell bounded costally by the intracellular vein, and not connected with the costal 
vein (the cross-veins are partly obsolescent also in the forewing), only 2 innermarginal veins present, the 3rd 
(posterior one) absent. — Genotype: U. subcoerulens Dogn. 
U. subcoeruleus Dogn. (9 h). Black, with very slight green gloss, the head almost entirely golden green, subcoeru- 
strongly glossy. Wings semitransparent with dark veins, with blue sheen in a lateral view, greater part of hind- leus ‘
