well as mesothorax brown. Hindwing whitish, with darker veins, green at the costal margin with the beginning 
of a white postmedian line, smoky at the margin, almost quite greyish-brown in the $. Expanse of wings: 
$ 46, $ 53 mm. A large species from Costa Rica. 
D. muscosa Mschlr. is marked like biundata, but the ground-colour is a lighter moss-green and the 
transverse markings are darker green without any yellowish and red-brown tints; the median area is somewhat 
more intensely strewn with blackish than the rest of the wing, somewhat more intense shading only before 
the undulate line; a blackish crescentiform streak at the cell-end, the green ground of the wing behind it still 
somewhat lighter, only the veins being darker. Hindwing very much lighter grey, fringe speckled light and 
dark green. Expanse of wings: 45 mm. Guiana. 
D. mullinsi Schs. Fore wing dark green with a large brown area behind the cell as far as the brown 
subterminal shadow, a short white inner-marginal streak before the latter, with fine black transverse lines. 
Hindwing white, reddish-yellow at the inner margin, broadly brown at the costal margin with the beginnings 
of a dark and light transverse stripe. The margin of the $ is broadly darkened. Expanse of wings: $ 46, $ 
$ 60 mm. Costa Rica. 
D. disciplaga sp. n. (150 h) is deep olive green on the forewing, the dark brown, undulate dentate 
transverse lines are bordered with a lighter reddish-brown on both sides; a similarly coloured reniform macula 
at the cell-end, the space behind it and below it strewn with blackish, quite black between 2 and 4, distally 
bordered by two deep velvety black hinnies; small red-brown, darker-centred internerval spots subterminally; 
fringe almost black. Hind wing brown with a straight light postmedian line from before the apex to the anal 
angle. According to 1 J from West Colombia (Rio Micay) in the Coll. Niepelt. 
D. antistes Schs. is similar to disciplaga, dull green, shaded with violettish-brown at the base of the 
inner margin, with a blackish-brown inner-marginal stripe; the fine double transverse lines are very indistinct, an 
oblique blackish-brown shadow behind and below the cell-end as far as the postmedian line, this line with 
a white inner-marginal spot and Avhite vein-dots behind it; the space behind the cell is lilac brown with 
green veins; small feebly brown subterminal spots, white dots at the ends of the veins. Hindwing blackish- 
brown with white dots on the ends of the veins. Expanse of wings: 44 mm. Costa Rica. 
D. delira Schs. The brown transverse lines on the moss-green forewing are bordered with rosy red, 
the green cross-vein is bordered with pink on both sides; a submarginal irregular row of pink spots shaded with 
brown and bordered with black inwards; fringe grey mixed with brown behind the dark marginal line. Expanse 
of wings: 31 mm. A smaller species from French Guiana. 
D. lopodites Dyar is very similar to vestona, but much less green, more blackish-brown, green only 
at the costal margin, the interior transverse line filled with white, before it at the inner margin there is an 
ochreous longitudinal blotch bordered with black below; the double posterior transverse line is reddish-brown, 
filled with white at the inner margin; the subterminal spots are black. Hindwing greyish-brown, darker at 
the costal margin with the beginning of a light postdiscal line. Expanse of wings: 33—37 mm. Panama, 
Costa Rica. 
D. bochica Schs. is likewise allied to vestona, but almost without any green or altogether without 
it, darkened blackish-brown before the antemedian line and in and behind the cell-end, the velvety black discal 
streak surrounded by light brown; transverse lines double, white vein-dots behind the distal line, and a short 
white line at the inner margin; as in lopodites the veins in the marginal area are black, strewn with white and 
terminate before the fringe with white dots. Hindwing brownish-grey, whitish-grev in the disc, light brown 
at the costal margin, enclosing a dark subterminal line distally bordered with white. Expanse of wings: 31 mm. 
Guatemala. 
D. editha Schs. Forewing light green, violettish-brown in the basal third, mixed with black and green 
and distally bordered by a double red-brown line, the distal line darker; a fine dentate median shadow is 
interrupted at the cell-end by a light reddish-yellow spot in which there are 2 dark dots on the cross-vein; 
a grey shadow from the lower cell-end to the inner angle, postmedian line red-brown, partly double; a fine 
undulate-linear shadow is interrupted in the lower half, forming 2 spots above the anal angle and followed 
in the upper half by a darker greyish-black shadow. Hindwing yellowish-White, shaded with reddish-brown 
on the veins and margin, with a feeble postmedian line and small anal spots. The much larger $ has a more 
distinct postmedian line on the hindwing and a broader red-brown distal margin. Expanse of wings: $ 44, 
$ 59 mm. Costa Rica. 
D. manethusa Drc. (150 i) is not dissimilar, but much paler on the whole, reddish-brown in the basal 
third, almost white outside, light greenish in the marginal area excepting the apex, transverse lines broken 
up into black and white vein-dots. Hindwing greyish-white, darkened apically. Head and thorax greenish- 
yellow, strewn with a darker colour. Costa Rica. 
*D. albovirens Dogn. (150 i) is closely allied to manethusa', forewing light yellowish-green, mixed with 
moss-green and brown, darkest in the basal third and in the distal half of the costal margin, traversed by 
a broad purely white oblique band from the first quarter of the costal margin to the anal angle; transverse
