278 CLOESIA; EUDOLICHE; DOLICHESIA. By Dr. M. Draudt. 
D. moesta Wkr. (36 b). Body and forewings blackish-brown with a faint blue shine. Hindwings 
blackish-brown. Anal tuft carmine. Expanse of wings: 28 mm. Habitat unknown. 
D. salcedo Dogn. (36 b) deviates from the other species by the broad shape of its hindwings which 
are in the $ greatly prolonged at the anal angle, as well as by long, orange-yellow hair-tufts on the 2nd abdominal 
ring. The $ is unicolorously black with a blue and purple reflection; in the $ the hindwings are diaphanous 
below the base of the cell, and the 4 last abdominal rings beneath banded orange. Expanse of wings: 30 mm. 
Panama, Ecuador. 
77. Genus: Cloesla Hmps. 
Very much like the preceding genus, the palpi shorter, the antennae not thickened and without any 
scales. On the forewing the venation is almost the same as in Dipaena, but the two lower radial veins rise from 
the same place. On the hindwing the middle radial comes from above the lower cell-angle; the costal vein is 
strongly curved. 
C. parthia Drc. (36 b). Head and thorax dark metallic bluish-green, the abdomen more purple blue. 
Forewings metallic golden green, hindwings bluish-green. Expanse of wings: 34 mm. Known from Nicaragua, 
Panama and Brazil. 
C. digna Schs. (36 c) is much smaller, on its body and forewings metallic blue. The hindwings are 
thinly scaled, brownish-black with metallic blue stripes at the proximal margin, along the lower median vein 
and below the apex. Expanse of wings: 28 mm. Costa Rica. 
C. normalis Dogn. (36 c). Body deep metallic green, the shoulder-covers with long pale green hair. 
Forewings above dull violettish-blue; hindwings and under surface metallic blue. Expanse of wings: 35 mm. 
Colombia. 
78. Genus: Emloliclie Mschlr. 
Proboscis stunted; the short palpi porrect. $ antennae scaled; legs and abdomen roughly haired. Veins 
of the forewing similar as in Dipaena, but the upper radial vein is petioled with the 3 lower subcostal veins, 
the uppermost of which does not anastomose with the costal. On the hindwing the middle radial is absent. 
Only 3 species: 
E. vittata Mschlr. (= achatina Btlr., rufitincta Rothsch.) (36 c) has a white body, the abdomen 
posteriorly darkened by brownish-grey; on the metathorax red-brown. Forewings white, in the whole disc 
as far as the proximal margin clouded red-brown with a white discal spot which is absent in the $, some 
dots at the costal margin, and before the apex at the margin 2 small spots. At the proximal margin of 
the $ a brownish-grey stripe. Hindwings white, in the before the margin darkened. Expanse of wings: 20 mm. 
Surinam, to the Amazon. • 
E. longa Schs. (36 c). Head and thorax white, abdomen tinted reddish-yellow. Forewings white; 
at the base of the proximal margin a brown shade, one in the middle of the cell, one below it cohering with 
another, postmedian shade, which touches neither the costal margin nor the proximal margin; at the margin 
there are 3 small, brown spots: at the apex, in the middle, and at the proximal angle. Hindwings and fringes 
white. Expanse of wings: 22 mm. French Guiana. 
E. major Rothsch. (36 c) almost looks like an Areva. The body is white, mixed with reddish-brown. 
Forewings whitish with faded red-brown spots. Hindwings with a very faint, reddish-brown tinge. Expanse 
of wings: 34 mm. Peru. 
79. Genus: Ifcolicliesia Schs. 
Proboscis well developed; the porrect jjalpi project beyond the forehead; $ antennae flattened, scaled. 
The posterior tibiae are without any middle spurs. Forewings long and narrow with a falciformly curved costal 
margin. The upper median vein rises far before the cell-angle, out of it the lower radial vein and a little higher 
up the middle radial; the upper one comes from the upper cell-angle; the 3 lowest subcostal veins on one 
footstalk, the uppermost anastomoses with the costal. On the hindwing the middle radial is absent, the upper 
one anastomoses with the subcostal. 
D. falsimonia Schs. (36 c). Head and thorax greyish-brown, abdomen pink. Forewings greyish-brown 
with a curved, light-grey shade from the middle of the costal margin almost to the base of the proximal margin, 
behind it a dark brown, oblicpie streak from the cell to the proximal margin; a light red-brown line runs 
from the costal margin before the apex to the margin at the lower radial; at the margin there are small black 
spots which flow together towards the proximal angle and pass over to the fringes; fringes otherwise white, 
at the apex black. Hindwings pink with a broad black border growing narrower towards the proximal angle. 
Expanse of wings: 16 mm. Costa Rica. 
D. lignaria Rothsch. (33 g) has not the falciform apex of the forewing as the preceding. Anterior 
body light reddish-brown, abdomen carmine with a black anal tuft. Forewings light reddish-brown, strewn 
darker, with indistinct, darker, antemedian, median and postmedian nebulous lines. Hindwings carmine-rosy 
with a blackish-brown marginal band. Expanse of wings: 20 mm. Peru.
