V. satara sp. nov. (38 c). Larger than the preceding; the orange spot in the apical part of the hindwing satara. 
is extended in the shape of a crescent. The under surface differs more: the forewings are here not yellow with 
a broad dark margin as in the preceding species, but black, traversed by a golden yellow transverse band being 
joined to that of the hindwing, thus producing the design of colours of the Celebes butterfly Pericallia aequata 
Wkr. (Vol. X, t. 24 h) having formerly been denoted as Satara. 
V. palmeri Drc. Forewings dark brown strewn with yellow atoms; hindwings chrome-yellow, with palmer!. 
a broad black marginal band from the apex to the proximal angle, where it is the broadest and deeply notched. 
Size of the following species. Colombia. 
V. epione Drc. has an expanse of 36 mm; the forewings are light brown like the thorax, the hindwing epione. 
exhibits a yellow, streak-shaped, distally forked proximal spot and yellow proximal margin. Peru, taken at 
an altitude of 6000 ft. 
V. birchi Drc. from Colombia has dark, almost black forewings, and on the black hindwing a central, birchi. 
yellow, wedge-shaped streak from the base to the cell-end. Larger than the preceding. 
V. underwoodi Drc. is still larger than birchi (48 mm). Eorewing black, towards the base the darkest, underwoo- 
Hindwings pale yellow; marginal band in the apical half of the wing quite narrow, in the anal half broad. Costa dl ' 
Rica. 
V. rosenbergi Rothsch. (38 d) is smaller than the preceding, particularly the $9- All the margins of rosenbergi. 
the hindwing, except the proximal margin, broad black; this marginal band is strongly expanded above the 
proximal angle. Mexico and Colombia. 
V. xanthopleura Hmps. (42 h). Chest and abdomen laterally with yolk-coloured stripes. Forewing xanthopleu- 
blackish-brown, strewn ochreous. Hindwing in the <$ in and below the cell as far as right behind its end with 
an orange band; another yellow streak at the proximal margin. — In the 9 there are yellow stripes at the proxi¬ 
mal margin, at the base and in the cell. Grenada. 
II. F o r e w i n g s brown, marked creamy-white or orange. 
V. thersites Drc. (38 e). In the forewing a short, white basal ray and a white spot before the proximal thersiies. 
angle; the yellow hindwing with a regular, black distal band. Panama. 
V. dotata Wkr. {— lativitta Wkr.) (38 e). Forewings similar as in the preceding species, but the dotata. 
black distal band of the hindwing is strongly narrowed in the middle of the margin. From the Amazon River: 
Pebas, Sao Paulo da Oliven^a, Ega, Manaos. 
V. brevilinea Wkr. (= major Fldr.) (38 e). Hindwings entirely like those of medarda (38 d), but brevilinea. 
the forewing with a thick, whitish basal ray as far as in the middle of the wing. South Brazil (Rio de Janeiro, 
Catharina). 
V. endophaea Dogn. based upon 1 not lying before me; it has on the chestnut-brown forewing likewise endophaea. 
a spot, but a yellow one being centrally situate so that it is crossed by the median. Hindwing with a yellow 
longitudinal spot proceeding from the base and leaving the whole margin black. From Corvico in Bolivia. 
V. varians Schs. represents endophaea in Peru; forewing quite similar, but the white basal ray of varians. 
the forewing quite short, often followed by another, small, isolated spot. Cuzco. 
V. endomelaena Dogn. Size of medarda (38 d), but the otherwise brown forewing exhibits a minute, endomelae- 
creamy-white discal spot; the hindwing with a yellow, central longitudinal spot, something like in fasciata na ‘ 
(38 e), but broader. From Muzo in Colombia. 
V. punctata Drc. On the dark brown forewing there is only one creamy-white yellow spot at the cell- punctata. 
end. Hindwings yellow, the black marginal band the broadest at the anal angle. Forewings beneath yellow, 
margined dark, hindwings similar as above. 36 mm. 
III. Forewings black with an orange discal stripe. 
V. strigata Rothsch. The orange stripe begins about 3 mm distant from the base of the wing and strigata. 
terminates 2 mm before the margin. Smaller than medarda. From Surinam and the Tijuca (South Brazil). 
3. Genus: JBrieea Wkr. 
In the habitus closely allied to the preceding genera, distinguished by the fully developed proboscis, 
the shorter palpi not being lowered like a snout, but turned up before the face, the abdomen being stout and 
short. The lowest radial of the forewing does not rise from the starting-point of the middle radial, but before 
it, though not so far before the cell-end as-in Eubaphe. 
B. disjuncta Wkr. (= jenna Rsd.) (38 e). The blackish-brown forewing with an orange basal ray disjuncta. 
as far as beyond the middle, and two small orange bands before the apex and proximal angle; hindwings with 
a yellow, distally notched, wedge-shaped spot. Brazil, rare; reported also from Mexico and Central-America.
