Rica; British Guiana. — In v. fusca Dogn. all the white areas are replaced by rusty reddish with white irroration, ju«ra. 
the postmedian line being distally bordered with white; faint traces of a double.antemedian line. Hindwing 
the same. According to 1 expanse: 26 mm. from French Guiana. 
E. mus Dogn.. described according to a single $ from Pacho (Colombia) is monotonously mouse- mu*. 
coloured with fine darker veins; only in a certain exposure to light there appear faint traces of transverse lines 
and of a subterminal line, as well as a discal streak. Expanse of wings: 40 mm. 
E. nebula Schs. (85 h). Anterior body dark brown, abdomen more brownish ochreous. Forewing nebula. 
whitish-grey, scantily strewn with brown, behind the postmedian line with dark brown veins; the olive-brown 
antemedian line is double, irregularly curved, the postmedian line likewise double, the exterior portion below 6 
expanded into a shadow; the subterminal line is confined to small dull grey spots between 2 and 5, and 6 and 8. 
Hindwing whitish, veins in the marginal area brown, at the anal margin broadly covered with ochreous hair, 
with a fine dark median band. The 2 is much larger, dark olive brown, the 3 last abdominal rings ochreous. 
The wings are much darker, basad olive brown, in the exterior half smoky brown, the median area very narrow, 
dingy white with a dark spot at the cell-end. Expanse of wings: 33, $ 47 mm. Costa Rica. 
E. nubiplena Dogn. (=- nebulosa Dogn.) is very closely allied to the following jibra from which it nubiplena. 
differs in entirely grey forewings on which only the costal margin as far as the cell, and the subterminal line 
remain whitish, the latter beginning with a white apical streak; marginal area slightly lighter. Hindwing white, 
at the anal margin with yellowish-red hair, in the costal-marginal portion with the beginnings of several lines. 
Expanse of wings: 31 mm. Colombia. 
E. directa Sch-s. (85 h) is likewise closely allied with fibra which, however, exhibits a narrower white (Ureeia. 
median area. In directa the grey basal area is defined by a dark antemedian line which is angular below the 
costal margin and inwardly dentate above the submedian, and uniting at the inner margin with an oblique 
line from the cell, both the lines being double; the dark grey postmedian line is likewise double, almost straight; 
the subterminal shadow is much fainter and narrower, distally bordered with white; veins fine dark grey. Hind¬ 
wing white, at the anal margin broad ochreous, the dark median line curved before the anal margin, a grey 
subterminal shadow only visible at the apex. Expanse of wings: 36 mm. Costa Rica. 
E. fibra Schs. (= lacinia Drc.) (84 g) is a very common, widely distributed species. Forewing of fibra. 
$ in the basal half white, with fine blackish-grey veins, basallv somewhat blackened, both the transverse lines 
double, the anterior line curved, the posterior line after an angle below the costal margin almost straight to 
the inner margin; subterminal shadow dentate, outside feebly bordered with whitish. Hindwing white, basally 
and at the anal margin broadly covered with ochreous hair, with a median line and a subterminal line, fringe 
grey. Abdomen with lateral ochreous hair. The very much larger $ is much darker smoky grey, the median 
area narrow, abdomen extensively covered with ochreous hair. Mexico to Brazil. — cayennensis /. n. (84 g) cayennen- 
is more olive brownish, also the median area, the two transverse lines very close together, filled with white, 
the veins in the median area below the cell thicker black, the subterminal line somewhat differently shaped, 
forming a large bow below the costal margin, then on 4 a pointed tooth as far as the margin. From Cayenne. 
Arouary (Guiana). 
E. ciniala sp. n. (81 f) is allied to the preceding species. Forewing thinly scaled, white, basally ciniala. 
and in the inner-marginal half and in the distal-marginal area, excepting the apex, on the brownish-grey ground 
strewn with greyish-black: veins blackish -brown, on the transverse lines interrupted by white; the latter double, 
the anterior line complete, broadly filled with white, before it below the cell densely clad with snow-white 
hair, the posterior line indicated by double vein-streaks; subterminal line only distinct in the upper half, composed 
of white lunae being inwardly dusted with a somewhat darker grey. Hindwing white, in the inner-marginal 
portion with rusty yellow hair, before the greyish-brown fringe with a blackish limbal line, at the costal margin 
with feeble beginnings of lines. Thorax blackish-brown, abdomen browner, under surface covered with lustrous 
rusty brown hair. According to 1 from Humbo near Muzo (Colombia); type in the Coll. W. Hopp. Charlottenburg. 
E. abolla sp. n. (81 f). The whitish ground is so densely powdered and strewn with a brownish greyish- abnlla. 
black that but faint traces remain of the transverse lines which are bordered with whitish; the most distinct 
are the small lunular spots of the subterminal line and a conspicuous roundish spot behind the postmedian line 
between 5 and 6; small discal spots feebly darker; veins particularly in the disc finely dark brown. Hindwing 
at the costal margin somewhat darker, containing the beginnings of 2 lighter lines. According to L $ from 
Sa. Catharina in the Coll. Wernicke, Dresden. 
E. ochropyga Fldr., the type of which is no more to be found, 1 only know from the figure in the ochropyga. 
Biologia, according to which it can only be a $ of fibra, though the subterminal line is quite straight, parallel 
to the margin; any other essential differences are not to be seen from the evidently not very true figure. Amazons. 
Thus the name ochropyga would have to replace fibra. 
E. salebrosa sp. n. (84 g) is not quite dissimilar to a fibra-Q. Forewing brownish-grey, strewn with salcbrom. 
a darker colour, at the extreme base and in the median area lighter brownish; transverse lines single, only the 
posterior line shows below the costal margin traces of a doubling, and it projects far distally on 4 and 8; the
