D. remuria Drc. (150 k) has green fore wings with fine deeply dentate black double transverse lines 
and a double row of dots behind the distal line, and fine black veins in the marginal area. Hindwing brownish- 
white with a broad green costal margin and a double postmedian line in it. Mexico to Brazil, a common species. 
D. viror Dogn. (151 a) is similar to remuria, smaller, the lunar arches of the transverse lines filled 
with violettish-brown like the cell-end spot which is followed by a strongly angled median line, white vein-dots 
behind the postmedian line, a subterminal row of violettish-brown spots behind them. Hind wing whiter than 
in remuria, tinged with green also at the margin. Bolivia, Colombia. 
D. jamaicensis Schs. Forewing light green, the ends of the veins fine black, with fine reddish-brown 
double dentate transverse lines and a large reddish-yellow discal spot, 2 short double transverse lines above 
it at- the costal margin; the postmedian line is finely shaded dark outside, the subterminal shadow reddish-brown. 
Hindwing light reddish-brown, broadly brown at the distal margin, green at the costal margin, with short darker 
double lines and a black marginal line. Expanse of wings: 50 mm. Jamaica. 
D. caluna Schs. is allied to herbida. Forewing yellowish-green, with a black basal ray and indistinct 
darker antemedian and median oblique lines; a dark grey spot behind the dark cell-end streak, a similar one 
between the median nervules; the undulate line is marked by several small black spots, followed by an 
undulate light line. Hindwing whitisli-grey, yellowish at the inner margin. Expanse of wings: 30 mm. Brazil 
(Castro, Parana). 
D. herbida Wkr. Forewing moss-green, strewn with blackish, the most intensely in the post-median 
area, with a blackish feeble basal ray and darker green dentate antemedian and postmedian transverse lines and 
a dark cell-end streak; a spot of dark grey dusting is between the base of the two median nervules; somewhat 
darker shading is before the lighter green undulate line; fringe speckled green and blackish. Hindwing brownish- 
grey, yellowish towards the base. Expanse of wings: 40 mm. Described from Brazil. 
D. lucoides Schs. is very similar to herbida', forewung yellowish-green, strewn with olive green, forming 
a large spot around the cell-end; the double dark deeply dentate transverse lines are shaded dark green below 
the cell, the light cell-end streak is shaded dark outside; dark green subterminal lunular shadows, those in the 
middle being thickest, an olive green shadow behind them; fringe speckled dark, dark internerval dots before 
it. Hindwing brownish pink with a lighter postmedian shadow. Expanse of wings: 40 mm. Costa Rica. 
D. barensa Schs. is dark green at the base and inner margin, with 2 irregular black antemedian 
transverse lines and a wdiitish spot at the cell-end, the distal half grey strewn with green which forms indistinct 
spots subterminally and at the margin; a dentate median line and double postmedian line are traceable. Hindwing 
white, narrowly green at- the costal margin with a small dark anal spot. Brazil (Castro). 
D. foliata Schs. Forewing dull moss-green, strewn with black in the basal half of the inner margin 
and with single finely dentate black transverse lines, the veins behind the post-median line are fine black; cross¬ 
vein dark brown, a grey shadowy spot below it; brown submarginal internerval spots. Hindwing brownish, 
moss-green at the costal margin, with 2 short black lines in it, inner margin with brown hair. Expanse of wings: 
31 mm. French Guiana. 
D. edwardsi Drc. (= muscosa Echo., masta Schs.) (151 a). Forewing brownish, finely strewn with 
black and mixed with green, most intensely so in a broad oblique band from the costal margin antemedianly 
to the inner margin as far as the anal angle, in a small apical spot- and before the margin; fine black double 
transverse lines and a black cell-end streak surrounded by red-brown, a whitish costal-marginal spot above it; 
small blackish subterminal spots are surrounded by red-brown. Hindwing brownish-grey. The larger $ is 
distinguished by a large white postcellular spot finely strewn with greyish-black, extending from the costal 
margin to the apex and below as far as the lower median nervule; a grey spot- below the cell in the bifurcation 
of the median nervules. The $ is much more common than the apparently very rare $ of which I have seen 
only a single specimen. Mexico, Guatemala, doubtfully from S. W. Arizona. 
D. baracoana Schs. (= habilis Schs.) (151a) is similar t-o edwardsi, the lighter and much less 
distinctly marked, the grey spot- below the lower cell-angle being the most- distinct; white vein-dots between 
black ones are behind the postmedian line. Hindwing more whitish, brownish at the costal and inner margins, 
a short dentate white postmedian line at the costal margin. The $ is easily distinguishable by a large purely 
white post-median spot, the subapical spot on the hindwing being much larger, too. Antennae strongly pectinated 
also in the §, plain in edwardsi, tegulae white. Mexico to Brazil. 
D. discata Schs. Forewing moss-green with single grey transverse lines, the interior one whitish at 
the inner margin, the posterior one dotted white on the veins; a white large spot- at the cell-end, a smaller 
one above it at- the costal margin; instead of the undulate line there is a blackish indistinct shadow. Hind- 
wing white, with yellow hair at the inner margin, moss-green at the costal margin. Expanse of wings: 37 mm. 
Brazil (Castro, Parana).
