1115 
Z. biueckneri Her. & Hopp has brown forewings with two fine green transverse lines, both strongly ex- bruccJcner 
curved in the middle; some green colouring in the cell. Hindwing not marked. Expanse of wings: 23 mm; 
£ unknown. Guatemala. 
10. Genus: l*araclea Dyar. 
Likewise very similar to Parasa from which it differs in the antennae being pectinated in the basal 
two thirds. Only 1 species: 
P. pretiosa Stkr. (= dolita Schs.) (164 i). Forewing green with a narrow yellowish straw-coloured margin pretiosa. 
mixed with brown outside and inside. Hindwing pale brownish yellow. Expanse of wings: 20 mm; $ unknown. 
Brazil. 
11. Genus: Euclea Hbn. 
A rather large genus of mostly small or very small species. Palpi somewhat stout with a short terminal 
joint, antennae of pectinated in the basal halves; posterior tibiae spurred; fore wing with all the 12 veins, 
vein 10 usually stalked with 7—9, forewing with a straight inner margin. The colouring generally contains no 
red-brown or ochreous tints, often mixed with green, but the thorax is never green. The distinction being partly 
very difficult we supply an analytical table facilitating the determination. Metraga Wkr. and Nochelia Clem. 
are generic synonyms.
