olive and black; the double black anterior transverse line is introangular on the sub median fold; 4 black 
undulate-dentate postmedian lines, the 1st and 3 rd space between them filled with olive green, the 2nd with 
yellowish-white, all 3 strewn with black; a black dentate stripe extends from the subterminal line between 6 
and 7 to the apex; the white discal spot is encircled with black, its surroundings are darker than the rest of 
the wing; fringe yellowish-white, spotted black on the veins. Hindwing whitish ochreous, dusted with black 
at the base and margin, with a broad faded black postmedian band which is excurved at the anal angle. Ex¬ 
panse of wings: 115 mm. Curitiba, Parana. 
6. Genus: Ewryglottis Bsdv. 
Likewise similar to Protoparce, separated by the thorax and legs being clothed with long erect hair- 
scales; pulvillus absent. 4 species from Tropical South America. 
Type: E. aper Wkr. 
E. albostigmata Rothsch. (93 d). Forewing velvety black with irregular short, lighter blackish-brown 
transverse streaks, densely scaled violettish-grey, with a large round yellowish-white stigma. Hinclwing 
brownish-black, with violettish-grey bands and dusted with this colour, the 9 with white; the black thorax 
with reddish hair, the black, grey-haired abdomen with 5 round orange-yellow spots on each side. Colombia, 
Ecuador and Peru. — basalis Rothsch ., from South-Eastern Peru (Carabaya), is distinguished by the hindwing 
being all white from the base to the first discal line. 
E. dognini Rothsch. (= aper Bsdv.) is very similar to the following davidianus, larger, easily discernible 
by entirely white abdominal spots; the transverse markings of the forewing are slightly visible, the antemedian 
ones are quite extinct. Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela. 
E. davidianus Dogn. (93 e). Black, with fine yellowish-white veins, 2 almost straight transverse bands, 
a yellowish-white discal spot and distinct subterminal dentate line. Hindwing blackish with a whitish transverse 
band. The median row of the abdominal lateral spots, which are often very small, is yellow. Loja, Ecuador. 
Larva bluish-green with 7 white oblique lines bordered with dark green above; head and caudal horn emerald- 
green, the head with 2 yellow lines. It lives, at altitudes of 6—8000 ft., on a Bignonia with thick clusters of 
yellow blossoms. 
E, aper Wkr. (93 d) is larger than davidianus, the orange abdominal spots are much larger and the 
antemedian lines form an acute angle. The nomenclatural type exhibits indistinct ventral dots on the 3rd 
to 5th segments, the postmedian band of the forewing composed of 3 lines is distinctly marked. Venezuela and 
Colombia. 
E, guttiventris R. & J . shows distinct whitish ventral spots and a light basal ventral spot, the discal 
band of the forewing and the light veins are less distinct. The black spots of the forewing are smaller, the grey 
discal line is more dentate; fringe more intensely speckled blackish-brown. Genitally different. Colombia and 
Bolivia, occurring beside aper. 
7. Genus: Dolba Wkr. 
Very closely allied with Protoparce, separated by very long scales on the head, which hang over the 
eyes as long cilia. Pulvillus and paronychium present. Only 2 species. 
Type: D. hylaeus Dm. 
D. hylaeus Dm. (= prini Abb. <b Sm.) (90 e) resembles a small P. rustica; forewing whitish-grey, scaled 
olive brown, the most densely so in the centre of the wing, the antemedian and marginal areas remaining purer 
white; a white discal spot at the cell-end. The race from North-Eastern North America shows a distinct con¬ 
trast between the white and dark areas of the wings, and beneath there is a double, very distinct postmedian 
line bordered with white distally. — floridensis Clark (90 d), from Florida, is more monotonously coloured, 
not so contrastingly dark and white, more grey; the distinct postmedian line of the fore wing beneath has more 
or less disappeared here. Larva with 6 distinct oblique stripes which are bordered with red anteriorly, with pink 
posteriorly, the stripe on the 5th segment is indistinct. It lives on Prinos, Ilex, Comptonia, Asimia. 
D. clarki Carlos Hoffm. (90 a) is likewise closely allied. Body blackish-brown, intermixed with whitish 
hairs which predominate on the thorax, ventral side whitish with a yellowish tint, abdomen with a darker 
dorsal line and subdorsal lines. Forewing brownish black with a violet tint and mixed with white; anterior 
transverse band indistinctly double, posterior band prominent and distinctly double, bordered by a whitish 
transverse band outside; black longitudinal streaks between 2 and 4; stigma yellowish white. Hindwing 
brownish black, basally lighter, with 2 slightly darker transverse bands, the space between them lighter, the 
exterior one terminates anally with a blackish spot. Fringe blackish-brown speckled with white. According to 
1 $ from Malinche near Puebla (Mexico), at an altitude of 2250 nr, taken in August.
