orange; the lines are shaded with deep brown inside in the lower half, subterminally with narrow black 
internerval streaks, bordered with light distally. Hindwing white, veins and margin cinnamon-brown. Expanse 
of wings: 34 mm. Guatemala. 
M. pleione Schs. (144 i) is at once recognizable by the two large yellowish-white costal-marginal spots 
reticulately marked with red-brown lines, the basal spot being smaller than the one situate in the centre of the 
costal margin; the inner margin of the brown forewing is broadly dusted with grey; the other marking is the 
same as that of cynrica, but the transverse lines are only distinct at the inner margin. Hindwing brown, 
somewhat diaphanous towards the base. Brazil (Rio de Janeiro). 
M. grisescens Schs. (144 i) resembles quadrata, but the colouring is a purer lilac grey, slightly dusted 
brown only at the costal margin; transverse lines similarly arranged as in the preceding species, the antemedian 
line double, convergent towards the inner margin, with small reddish-brown costal spots above it; a large 
quadrangular blackish-brown spot in the narrow median area at the inner margin; a double row of small dark 
internerval spots at the distal margin. Hindwing white, narrowly brownish on the veins and margin. French 
Guiana. 
M. castrensis Schs. (144 i) likewise belongs near to the preceding species; forewing brown, reddish at the 
costal margin, with a lilac tinge at the inner margin, a round black spot before the cell-end, a dark-edged 
reniform macula at the end itself; the lilac grey distal transverse line is bordered with ochre inside and arises 
near the apex, extending obliquely to the centre of the inner margin; the distal margin behind it is intensely 
dusted with lilac. Hindwing white with a golden brown marginal shadow. Brazil. 
M. hirsuta Schs. differs from the other species in the marking, the violettish-brown forewing showing 
a broad red-brown shadowy stripe from the centre of the costal margin to the distal margin near vein 3, bordered 
with blackish-brown below; the transverse lines, excepting the posterior line, are as usual only visible at 
the inner margin. Hindwing light gregish-brown, veins and margin darker. Expanse of wings: 34 mm. 
French-Guiana. 
M. albopunctata Dogn. on the whole shows the same colouring and marking as the other species, but it is 
easily distinguished by a subterminal row of white dots which are bordered with black only inwards; the lowest 
of the 3 black dots at the cell-end, which form a triangle, is also marked white; fore wing otherwise chestnut-brown 
in the costal half, lilac brown in the inner-marginal half, the transverse lines bordered with yellowish ochre. 
Hindwing blackish with light fringe. Expanse of wings: 28 mm. French Guiana. 
M. luteopunctata Dogn. ( = aurea Drc.) (144 i). Forewing very dark chestnut, more reddish in the costal- 
marginal half, dusted with lilac in some places of the inner margin, with 4 almost straight oblique somewhat 
lighter transverse lines and 4 small yellow subcostal spots, two of which are before the anterior transverse line, 
the two others at the upper cell-end; the small black subterminal internerval spots are partly edged with lilac. 
Hindwing white, brownish on the veins and margin, quite brown in the $. Peru and Bolivia. 
M. minna Schs. (144 i) is the smallest species known and very different. Fore wing orange brown in the 
costal half, on the head and collar, light brownish-grey below it, dusted with lilac in some places, with light 
reddish-yellow inconspicous transverse lines and two small round black spots at the cell-end and one in the 
centre of the cell. Hindwing blackish-brown. Guiana, Colombia. 
26. Genus: Ocloxia Dogn. 
Allied to the following genus from which it differs in a frontal hair-tuft, the antennae being shortly 
ciliated also in the male, the legs densely haired with a pair of long spurs on the hind tibiae. Wings longer and 
narrower, vein 5 arises from the upper cell-angle, 6 from the centre of the areole; the cell of the hindwing is 
uncommonly short. Only 1 species: 
Type of genus: 0. concocia Dogn. 
K. concocta Dogn. Forewing chestnut-brown, without any markings except a series of very irregularly 
shaped darker lunules distally accompanied by a darker shadow; it ends at the inner margin near the anal angle 
and is dusted somewhat white behind it towards the apex. Hindwing monotonously dark chestnut-brown with 
lighter fringe. Expanse of wings: 32 mm. French Guiana. 
27. Genus: Autioplia Schs . 
S antennae very long, dentate, with long ciliary tufts; palpus erect with a very short terminal joint; 
legs smoothly scaled. Fore wing broad and short with a rounded distal margin and long areole, vein 6 arises 
from it near the upper cell-angle, the subcostal branches, except the uppermost, from its end. Hindwing: veins 
3 and 4 arise from the same place, 6 on a short stalk with the subcostal vein. 
Type of genus: A. multilinea Schs.
