D. albidiscata Schs. has white forewings strewn with brown except a quadrangular purely white altjidiscata. 
discal spot and a broad subterminal shadow which is the most distinct at the costal margin; a narrow brown 
band at the margin is traversed by white veins. Hindwing light brown, scantily scaled, darker at the distal 
margin. Cuba (Tanamo). 
D. splendens Drc. (151 a) is scarcely mistakahle for any other species owing to its white forewings splendent. 
with the large green costal-marginal spot of the same oblong shape as in the genus Rhuda, as which splendens 
was also described. Panama, Costa Rica to Colombia and Bolivia. 
D. lloreda Dogn. (= amata Drc.) (151a). Fore wing green, with large brown spots at the inner margin; lloreda. 
the fine brown transverse lines are most distinct at the costal margin, only the postmedian line is better visible. 
Hindwing whitish-grey, broadly greenish at the costal margin. Colombia. 
D. lama Schs. Forewing violettish-brown, costal margin, apex and the space between the veins lama. 
3 and 4 moss-green with black transverse lines, the anterior one single, the posterior one treble, submedianly 
connected with a distinct undulate median line by a streak; the postmedian line exhibits a white crescentiform 
streak at the inner margin, a yellow spot is in the cell-end; small faint brown marginal spots between the ends 
of the veins; hindwing whitish, brown at the inner and costal margins, the latter with the beginnings of three 
darker lines. Expanse of wings: 36 mm. French Guiana. 
D. poulsoni Schs. (151 b). Forewing green, strewn with blackish, with a broad light reddish-yellow poulsoni. 
inner-marginal stripe as far as the postmedian line, reddish-brown behind it, the space between the median 
nervules and also the cell-end shaded with brown, vein 3 striped yellowish-white outside, small white vein-dots 
behind the indistinct double postmedian line. Hindwing whitish, inner and costal margins brown, the costal 
margin strewn with green. Guiana, Brazil. 
78. Genas: Neirorioiita Grt. & Rob. 
The only distinctive mark of the species, the distally concave cross-vein, is too insignificant to found 
a special genus on it. We separate it nevertheless from the preceding genus, because bilineata might be looked 
for under Seirodonta. 
Type of genus: S. bilineata Pack. 
S. bilineata Pack. {= turbida Wkr., associate Wkr., ulmi Harr.) (151 b) is mouse-coloured on the bilineata. 
forewing, generally somewhat darkened between the two fine dark brown dentate and somewhat lighter-edged 
transverse lines; the cell-end is marked by a black, insignificant streak; submarginal line very feeble. Hindwing 
lighter grey with a small dark anal spot. — Larva green with white dorsal and subdorsal lines, the latter broader 
and bordered with yellow and red, almost contiguous with the dorsal line on the first segments and bordered 
with deep red inside. It lives on elmtrees and more rarely on beeches. Atlantic States. — f. exsanguis Dyar , exsanguis. 
from Texas, is a smaller and lighter form, more bluish-grey, of a more reddish flesh-colour in the median area, 
with a more distinct subterminal shadow. 
79. Genus: BBisHnmu Schs. 
Very closely allied to Disphragis, distinguished by the somewhat more erect palpus with a longer middle 
joint and scales instead of hair. Neuration of forewing as in Disphragis ; hindwing with a straight costal margin, 
of a broad shape, the costal vein proceeds before the centre of the cell, the nervules arising from the upper 
cell-angle are not stalked, those from the lower one from one and the same base. Only one small species. 
Type of genus: D. angulinea Schs. 
D. angulinea Schs. Forewing greyish-brown, near the base with a small reddish-yellow costal-marginal angulinea. 
spot; instead of the anterior transverse line there is a dark triangular costal-marginal spot and a round one 
below the cell; median line double only visible below the cell, the postmedian line is a brown shadow, double 
vein-dots parted by light behind it, whitish dusting between it and the median line below the cell; light 
dusting behind the brownish-grey subterminal shadow, then black marginal spots. Hindwing greyish-brown. 
Expanse of wings: 22 mm. Costa Rica. 
80. Genus: Maloeampa Schs. 
Exactly like Disphragis , only separated by dense hair and scales of the somewhat concave costal 
margin of the hindwing in the basal part. Forewing somewhat longer and narrower on an average than in 
typical Disphragis. Many tropical species have been described. 
Type of genus: M. punctata Or. 
M. punctata Or. (= bifurcata Sepp.) (151 b) is a large well-known species apparently very variable punctata. 
according to different districts. Ziliante Stoll in my opinion also belongs to this species and represents a specimen
