Sc. nudata sp. n. Similar to auriflamma, veins not black, the posterior edge of the cell at most; nudaia. 
apical margin more extensively black, beginning already at %. ,,Brazil“ (Sello). types in the Berlin Museum. 
Sc. angustimargo Warr. (71 g). Forewing yellow, veins everywhere black, also blackish scales on anguslimar- 
the ground-colour. The black apical area is narrower and more curved. Hindwing black, beneath with a few • f/0 - 
yellow basal streaks at the costal margin. Bolivia, Peru, Paraguay. 
Sc. cleonica Drc. (71 g). Forewing yellow, costal margin and hind-margin narrow, apical area as cleonica. 
far as the cell black, likewise blackish irroration on the ground-colour. Hindwing black, all the black places 
with a slight purple reflection. Ecuador. 
Sc. semifulva Warr. (71 g). Similar to cleonica, the yellow colour more reduced, not reaching to the semifulva. 
cross-vein. Ecuador. 
Sc. curvilimes Prt. The dark apical area of the forewing extends proximally at the cross-vein to the curvilimes. 
posterior angle of the cell, and behind it is strongly curved towards the distal margin. Expanse 38 mm. North 
Peru. 
Sc. gigantea Drc. (= caesiopicta Warr.) (71 h) looks like a gigantic auriflamma ; in the forewing gigantea. 
the apical area except the border towards the yellow area and the anal margin of the hindwing bluish-grey, 
in the smaller more indistinct. Bolivia. — In subcyanea Prt. (= cyanea Prt.) the bluish-grey areas are intensely subcyanea. 
suffused with blue; in the $ the posterior parts of the hindwing are less light. South-Eastern Peru. 
Sc. servula Warr. (71 h) is likewise similar to a very large auriflamma, the black places are somewhat servula. 
purple, but not bluish-grey, the analis and media not black. Colombia, Peru. — steinbachi Prt. is smaller steinbachi. 
(expanse 38 to 42 mm), veins black as in auriflamma. Argentina. The latter race is discernible from large 
specimens of auriflamma by the 2nd media rising very near to the third. 
Sc. erasa Prt. (71 h). Similar to servula, veins in the yellow area of the hindwing nowhere black, erasa. 
Colombia, East Peru. It corresponds to Crocomela trigonata Warr. (p. 453) flying at the same places. 
Sc. vulturata Warr. (71 h). Forewing blackish-brown with a yellow longitudinal band which is vulturata. 
curved towards the tornus. Hindwing blackish-brown with a yellow basal spot. East Peru. It corresponds 
to Crocomela conscita Drc. (p. 453). 
32. Genus: Tliirmi«i;i Wkr. 
Veins as in Scea, face, palpi, and hind femora with rough hair. 
Til. diniidiata Wkr. (71 h). Forewing yellow, costal margin, hind-margin, veins, and apical portion dimidiata. 
behind the cross-vein black, the apical portion suffused with bluish-grey. Hindwing yellow, margins narrow, 
apex very broadly purple black, on the cross-vein in both wings a black spot. Colombia. — In discinota Warr. discinota. 
(71 i) the black apical portion of the forewing is broader and encloses the cross-vein. Venezuela. 
Til. grandis Drc. (71 i). Forewing as in discinota, in the hindwing the base is black, the apical portion grandis. 
very much broader, enclosing the cross-vein. Colombia. 
Th. circumscripta sp. n. (71 i). Forewing yellow, margins and veins narrowly black, in the apex circumscrip- 
a large circular spot. Hindwing yellow, margins very narrowly black. Beneath the yellow places also in the fa - 
forewing without black veins, on the cross-vein a black spot. $ type from Colombia in the Berlin Museum. 
Th. superba Drc. (71 i). In the habitus similar to Scea servula (71 h), in the forewing the black apical superba. 
portion is more extensive, enclosing the cross-vein. Ecuador. 
Th. venusta Dgn. is like superba, hindwing at the costa above partly yellow, beneath broadly yellow venusta. 
as far as %, the yellow colour of the forewing beneath extending farther distally. Ecuador. 
More densely covered with longer hair than in the preceding genus. Suffusd with blue. 
33. Genus: Cyanotriclia Prt. 
C. necyria Fldr. (71 i). Black, suffused with blue, below the costa of the forewing some red short necyria. 
basal streaks. Ecuador, Peru. 
C. bellona Drc. Like necyria (71 i), but with an oblong red spot before the apex of the forewing. Peru, bellona. 
34. Genus: $agaris Wkr. 
In the forewing the 2nd radial rises before the 5th, before the 3rd and 4th; the costal margin of the 
hindwing is strongly curved, $ with scent-spots on the hindwing. 
S. rejecta Hhn. (= stygne Wkr. , erynnis Wkr.) (71 i, k). Black, forewing with a yellow transverse band rejccia. 
the edges of which are undulating. Brazil Venezuela. ■— The Colombian specimens were denominated: ortropea ortropea.
