strewn ground of the wing; fringe greenish, speckled black. Hindwing white with greenish margins. Expanse 
of wings: 37—39 mm. Peru. 
D. tricolor Drc. is likewise similar, forewing yellowish-white, greenish mixed with brown in the basal tricolor.

of wings: 45 mm. Colombia. 
D. gilboa Drc. is also similar. Forewing white, greenish-brown in the basal third, thickly strewn with gilboa.

analwards; apex and distal margin dusted with green. Hindwing white, costal margin and fringe greenish. 
Expanse of wings: 45 mm. South-Eastern Peru. 
D. subalbida Schs. Forewing green, grey in the basal third, bordered by a darker double line; the subalbida. 
fine posterior transverse line is also dark grey, the distal-marginal area dusted with grey with a small whitish 
spot at the inner margin behind the postmedian line. Hindwing whitish, green at the costal margin, dark grey 
at the inner margin, with a dark postmedian line which is only distinct at the costal and inner margins, a 
dark green marginal line and green fringe. Expanse of wings: 37 mm. Brazil (Castro, Parana). 
D. infanda Schs. (150 i). Forewing almost black in the basal third, strewn with green at the inner infanda.

below the lower cell-end and a black oblique blotch at the base of vein 2; posterior transverse line double, 
red-brown; small black subterminal spots bordered with grey outside are in the upper half and above the 
anal angle; distal margin and fringe light green, fringe speckled darker. Hindwing whitish, strewn with 
blackish at the distal margin, with a small black anal spot and yellowish and reddish inner-marginal hair. 
Expanse of wings: 39 mm. French Guiana. 
D. meretricia Schs. (150 i). Forewing light green, dark olive green in the basal third, bordered by meretricia. 
the almost straight anterior transverse line; a large yellowish-reddish spot at the cell-end encloses 2 small 
brown spots, the dentate postmedian line is blackish-brown, double, beginning as a dark costal-marginal shadow; 
subterminal spots black, removed inwards between the radial branches, fringe speckled black on the ends of 
the veins. Hindwing pink with a blackish-brown distal margin and postmedian line, fringe green. Costa Rica. 
D. tumacona sp. n. (150 i) is very closely allied to meretricia. Forewing uniformly moss-green, basal tumacona. 
area deep black in the costal half, dusted with red-brown below it, distally bordered by the very fine ante- 
median line; a red-brown spot below the cell-end between 2 and 3, a line above this spot extends to the costal 
margin; the very fine red-brown postmedian line is only visible in the costal half and at the inner margin: 
behind it at the costal margin there is a steel-black triangular spot warming into red-brown at the costal 
margin with the beginnings of 3 or 4 light lines; a black subapical spot, a subterminal black dot only above 3 
and one at the anal angle; fringe green with black vein-dots. Hindwing brownish-pink, lighter yellowisli-white 
in the disc, a small black spot at the anal angle, costal margin brownish-grey with the beginnings of light and 
dark lines; fringe moss-green. 2 SS from West Colombia (Rio Tumaco) in the Berlin Museum. 
D. baetrea Schs. (= crocea Dogn.) (150 i). Forewing green, violettish-brown in the basal third, strewn baetrea'. 
with black and green, distally bordered by the irregular double black anterior transverse line, a black and grey 
spot in the cell behind it; discal streak red-brown, surrounded with reddish-yellow, a blackish spot below the 
distal cell-end; median line interrupted, blackish, the posterior transverse line double, red-brown, shaded with 
black at the costal margin, inner margin and behind the cell; small black submarginal double spots connected 
by lilac grey; fringe reddish-brown, speckled black. Hindwing pinkish-brown, dusted with black at the distal 
margin, most densely so at the apex and anal angle, with a dark postmedian line. Expanse of wings: 33 mm. 
French Guiana. 
D. praestana Dogn. is allied with baetrea and viridiana: forewing green, shaded darker at the base, praestana. 
bordered by a black double line, a dark median shadow extends through the cross-vein; the same double sub¬ 
marginal spots filled with whitish are behind the dark green postmedian line; hindwing pink, darkened greenish 
at the distal margin and costal margin, the latter with the beginnings of 3 darker lines. Expanse of wings: 
40 mm. Ecuador. 
D. viridiana Jones is very similar, yellowish-green, darkened brown at the base, the double antemedian viridiana. 
line filled with brown and almost straight, curved in praestana, the postmedian line which is only double in the 
upper third is followed by a light brown shadow; the submarginal spots are the same. Hindwing yellowish 
ochre, with a pink hue in the disc, dusted with green at the costal and distal margins, with a broad brown 
marginal band. The $ has quite dark red hindwings. Expanse of wings: S 38, $ 47 mm. Brazil (Castro). 
D. margisialis Schs. Forewing light violettish-brown, green at the base of the costal margin and in marginali 
the cell, also along the inner-marginal vein and in the space between the median nervules and subterminally, 
the latter area distally bordered by a curved brown line which is broadly bordered with white inside and extends
