MALUPA; PAULUMA. By Dr. M. Dratjdt. 
Type of genus: G. mixtipennis Wkr. 
mixti- G. mixtipennis Wkr. (148 g) has light brownish-violet forewings, dark brown at the costal margin, hi 
pain is. f} ie upper half of the median area and in a triangular area behind it, strewn with green scales, with black, 
finely dentated, double transverse lines filled with green, and a snow-white longitudinal streak below the costal 
margin between the antemedian and subterminal lines. Hindwing light brown, darker at the margin. Brazil. 
inquieta. G. inquieta sp. n. (148 g) is extremely similar to mixtipennis: the white subcostal stripe extends quite 
into the apex and proximally it does not reach quite so near to the basal area which does not represent a 
light spot as in mixtipennis , but is brownish-white, coarsely strewn chocolate brown, with a white subbasal 
line bordered with dark brown inside, distally bordered by the antemedian line which forms strong arches; 
inner-marginal area as in mixtipennis, but much less strewn green; the whole median and post-median area as 
far as the subterminal line is darker chocolate brown, without green; undulate line similar as in mixtipennis , 
but the small green dentate spots are smaller and distinctly bordered with blackish-brown on both sides. 
According to 1 $ from Surinam; type in the Senckenberg Museum, Frankfort on the Main. 
albipuncta. G. albipuiicta Sells, is somewhat similar to inquieta, but it lacks the silvery white streak which is replaced 
by a large white spot at the cell-end, distally continued along vein 6; no transverse lines except the antemedian 
line, a series of green spots shaded with black inside are before the margin. Hindwing dark brown with lighter 
fringe. Expanse of wings: 34 mm. Brazil (Sao Paulo). 
niveigutta. G. ttiveigutta Sells, is very closely allied to albipuncta, but much darker; forewing blackish, mixed with 
dark moss-green in and below the cell and at the apex; two submarginal rows of dark moss-green spots, a black 
postcellular shadow, small velvety black spots before the distal row; the silvery white spot of the same shape 
as m albipuncta, the veins strewn somewhat whitish. Hindwing blackish-brown with similar fringe speckled 
with reddish. Expanse of wings: 36 mm. French Guiana. 
praxia. G. praxia Schs. which is doubtfully ranged here has purple brown forewings, parts of the inner margin 
dusted lighter, with a dark brown anterior transverse line filled with grey, and a white spot at the cell-end 
with a short hook-shaped inward continuation, followed behind it by a large blackish-brown spot with a row 
of smaller spots behind it towards the apex; white postmedian vein-dots and small submarginal brown lunae 
distally bordered with white. Hindwing blackish-brown, whitish towards the base and at the costal margin, 
with a dark white-scaled sjmt at the anal angle. Expanse of wings: 25 mm. Guatemala. 
59. Genus: Schs. 
Separated from the preceding genus by porrect palpi, tuftedly ciliated antennae and long narrow 
forewings with a convexity at the costal margin before the apex; hindwing of a triangular shape with rounded 
angles and a straight distal margin. Neuration as in the preceding genus, but veins 6 and 7 of hindwing on a 
longer stalk. Only 1 species: 
Type of genus: M. elongata Schs. 
clongata. M. elongata Schs. Forewing light olive brown, brigth red-brown at the inner margin, the lower half 
of the distal margin, and in the distal half of the costal margin; a velvety brown basal i'ay below the median 
vein extends to the centre of the cell, light reddish-yellow dusting below it, distally to it the median vein is 
light, shaded with dark brown below; reddish-brown dusting at the cell-end, a light reddish-yellow line along 
the upper radial branch extends to the apex, another submarginal line to the interior angle. Hindwing whitish, 
dark brown at the inner margin and anal angle. Expanse of wings: 48 mm. British Guiana. 
60. Genus: l*auliima Schs. 
Separated from Main pa bv shorter and broader forewings with a very oblique distal margin and a very 
round apex and interior angle. Two thirds of the antennae of the $ are pectinated, the pectinations distinctly 
white-haired inwards, palpi short, erect. 
Type of genus: P. nubila Schs. 
nubila. P. nubila Schs. (148 g). Forewing reddish yellowish-white, inner margin and apical third of costal 
margin violettish-brown, lighter brown dusting extends from the base through the cell to below the apex; a 
curved dark brown transverse line is at the base and is continued in a stripe from the costal margin below the 
median vein; a similar nebulous stripe is above the anal angle. Hindwing white with a brown marginal line 
and a small spot at the anal angle. Brazil (Castro, Parana).
