transverse band, the interior side of which is bordered by a blackish line, behind the centre with two indistinct, 
darker yellowish-red, notched lines, one of which is postmedian, the other subterminal. Hindwing in the costal 
portion whitish, densely strewn with yellowish-red. Expanse of wings: 18 lines. Bogota (Colombia). 
E. mania Schs. (83 g) is an unmistakable species, forewing on the yellowish-white ground densely mama. 
strewn with reddish-brown and blackish, with a somewhat darker shaded discal spot and a broad steel-grey 
inner margin which extends subterminally up to vein 4, in the marginal area with 4 undulating reddish-yellow 
transverse stripes, interrupted by the light veins, the second before the margin darker brown or blackened, 
often also visible in the steel-grey area as far as the inner margin. Hindwing cinnamon-red, in the costal portion 
coloured like the forewing. Widely distributed in Brazil. 
E. vittabunda Dyar exhibits the colours of mama, but the marking rather of lankesteri ; thorax and vltlalmnda. 
inner margin of fore wing violettish-brown, the rest of the wing loam-coloured brown, strewn with red-brown, 
with the 4 transverse lines of mama. Hindwing suffused with reddish-brown, at the costal margin with the 
beginning of brownish loam-coloured lines. Expanse of wings: 36 mm. Panama. 
E. namora Schs. (83 g). Body above light lichen-coloured grey, beneath yellowish. Fore wing brown, namora. 
strewn with black, inner and distal margins as far as 4 light lichen-coloured; the darker brown postmedian line 
is distally bordered by yellowish reddish, from the costal margin feebly curved as far as 4, then undulating and 
extending above the submedian line to the base; a series of darker brown subterminal spots is distally bordered 
with yellowish-red as far as 4, below 4 there is a larger brown spot and below it another smaller one farther 
towards the base; an undulating yellowish-red limbal line is distally shaded with dark grey. Hindwing light 
red-brown, at the costal margin darker brown with traces of yellowish-red lines. Expanse of wings: 31 mm. 
French Guiana. 
E. lankesteri Schs. (83 g). Forewing yellowish-red, densely strewn with dark brown, inner and distal lankesteri. 
margins as far as 4 like the thorax light grey, upwards in the basal half bordered with white, distally more 
dark brown, spotted; above 4 with a subterminal row of small brown spots which are outside bordered with 
yellowish-red. Hindwing light brown, with a slightly darker median shadow and behind it the beginnings of 
yellowish-red lines; fringes spotted grey. Costa Rica. 
E. thyatira Drc. (= albiplaga Schs.) (83 g), Body creamy white, only the head and palpi brownish. Fore- thyaiira. 
wing brown with large creamy spots at the costal margin, apex and inner-margin, the latter spots being 
connected. Hindwing in the disc light brown, a large quadrangular apical spot, the inner and distal margins 
narrow yellowish-white. The type originates from the Chiriqui, Panama; Costa Rica. — taminata /. n. (83 h) lamincda. 
is a form from Colombia (Villavicencio), which is not rare and very much darkened. Abdomen, excepting the 
anal hair, dark brown, on the forewing the apical spot is smaller, the two small costal-marginal spots are almost 
entirely absent, hindwing nearly quite blackish-brown. The grey larva with broad black lateral bands, according 
to Fassl, resembles a wood-louse, on touching the leaf it raises its anterior and posterior ends. Pupa in a yellow 
web which is intensely powdered with white. 
E. cariosa Schs. Body brown, collar and patagia outside white. Foiewing at the inner margin below cariosa. 
the sub median, at the distal margin, and postmedianly below 4. besides in a preapical spot at the costal margin 
light brown, the rest greyish-white, strewn with brown; the postmedian line is accompanied by white vein-dots 
from 5 to the inner margin; the subterminal line is composed of small brown spots which are bordered with 
white below 4. Hindwing brown, costal portion and postmedian area behind the cell white, scantily strewn with 
brown. Expanse of wings: 35 mm. Costa Rica. 
E. braganza Schs. (83 h) is whitish on the forewing, on the head, collar and shoulders, whilst on the braganza. 
inner margin and three quarters of the distal margin inclusive of an inner-marginal third of the postmedian 
area and of a subapical spot at the costal margin it is light brown. Hindwing brown, at the costal margin almost 
to the apex white. The $ is larger and lighter, the white colour particularly on the hindwing more extensive. 
Colombia, Brazil, Ecuador, apparently not rare. — f. sordida Dogn. is a somewhat smaller form from French sordida. 
Guiana in which the white colour turns dingy yellowish, the spots not being distinctly defined, smaller and 
darker brown. 
E. braganzoides Schs. is very similar to braganza. the collar only laterally white, the forewing more braganzoi- 
marked, above the cell strewn with brown, with double, partly interrupted, brown transverse lines, and 2 dark dc -s. 
dots in the cell-angles, the subterminal brown crescents distinct. Fringes brown with white dots on the ends 
of the veins; also on the forewing the white costal-marginal area is strewn with brown and crossed by brown 
lines. Costa Rica. 
E. spureata sp. n. (83 h) is very similar to the two preceding species, but with much narrower and more spurcala. 
pointed wings. Forewing greyish-white, with fine black veins, scantily strewn with black, predominantly in 
the discal area, the brown marking as in braganza, but much lighter and narrower, but at the distal margin up 
to the apex; the postmedian line only visible from the inner margin to 4, with fine black vein-dots, the sub ter¬ 
minal lunae inwardly shaded with grey, outside broadly bordered with white. Hindwing light reddish-brown, 
strewn with black, at the costal margin whitish with a double postmedian line and a subterminal line which
