S. hyperoche Dogn. looks like apicalis, but it shows yellowish-brown subbasal and subapical spots 
which are more or less strongly developed. Expanse of wings: 23 —33, $ 30—40 mm. Larva exactly like 
that of stimulea. Panama, Colombia, Ecuador. 
S. intensa Dyar. $ forewing narrow and pointed. Hindwing triangular with a concave distal margin 
and a hyaline disc; colouring like that of apicalis, the dots more extensive, yellow, inclined to lie in a bent 
line. $ with a more oblique distal margin, the middle one of the subapical dots projecting a little. Expanse 
of wings: $ 23—30, $ 37—45 mm. Guiana, Brazil. 
S. auromacula Schs. differs from intensa in its less narrow wings of the <$, and the straight not con¬ 
cave distal margin of the hindwing. Expanse of wings: 31, $ 34—48 mm. Venezuela. 
S. barbara Dyar. Wings pointed, hindwing of $ with a straight distal margin; dark purple brown 
with a red apical spot, with another submedian one behind the subbasal dots; dots light yellow, the subapical 
ones united S-like. Hindwing dark brown, the disc of the <$ whitish. Expanse of wings: £ 33, $ 44 mm. Brazil 
(Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo). 
S. sibinides Dyar differs from barbara in its larger dots, the subapical ones of which are not united 
S-like. Hindwing pink at the costal margin, light, in the disc, broadly dark brown at the inner margin. Ex¬ 
panse of wings: $ 34 mm; $ unknown. Brazil (Pernambuco). 
S. blanda sp. n. Forewing as in sibinides, but the hindwing rounded as in barbara. Expanse of wings: 
31 34 mm: 2 unkonwn. Brazil (Minas Geraes, Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo). 
8. Genus: Parana Moore. 
This universally distributed genus contains mostly green or brown and green species (cf. Vol. II. 
p. 345; Vol. X. p. 694; Vol. XIV, p. 462). Hind tibiae spined. Forewing with the usual 12 veins, 10 generally 
from the cell; palpi projecting beyond the frons; inner margin of forewing straight; $ antennae pectinated 
only in the basal halves. As the distinction of the numerous species is often difficult, we supply again an 
analytical key so as to facilitate the determination.
