13U8 ACRAGOPSIS; MINONOA; MINAC R A G I D E S . By Dr. Herbert Sick. 
A. mesoa Drc. (168 b). Forewing chrome yellow, the centre of the forewing from the base almost to 
the clistal margin lead-coloured, hindwing uniformly chrome yellow; head, thorax and abdomen yellow; legs 
brownish yellow: both wings beneath uniformly pale yellow; the darker colour on the forewing hardly visible. 
Panama. Bugaba. 800 1500 ft.. Volcan de Chiriqui (Ribbe in the Coll. Staudinger). 
A. albescens Hopp. 16- 17 mm. Completely white with a faint orange tinge. Forewing especially 
on the veins without a streaky lustre. Hindwing with long white small hairs at the abdominal margin. Vene¬ 
zuela: Maracav (P. Vogel). 2 Type in Coll. Hopp. 
A. luteola Hopp. A forewing golden yellow, half of the inner margin and the costal margin yellowish 
ochreous. Hindwing somewhat paler, but darker yellow at the anal angle. Both wings beneath paler. Body 
light ochreous, head, antennae, palpi and legs yellowish. 22 mm. Para Brazil. (Sieber.) 
A. nana Dogn. 17 mm. Antennae, head, body and forewing above golden yellow, forewing partly with 
rough scales, hindwing beneath of a bright lemon-colour, q, Sao Paulo. Brazil. 
A. ingenescens Dyar. Forewing dull golden yellow; colour that of ria Dyar which Dyar presumes tc 
be synonymous with luteola Hopp (Journal of the Wash. Ac. of Soe. 17. 1927, p. 557); hindwing pale yellow, 
more golden at the margin. Expanse of $: 32 mm. 1 $ known from Madeira. Venezuela. (Coll. Dognin.) 
A. phasma Dyar. White, with faintly yellowish clouded markings in the lower halves of the wings; 
without a discal spot. Expanse of $: 17 mm. 1 $ known from Sinaloa. Mexico. (A. Ktjsche.) 
7. Genus: Acragopsis Dyar. 
Antennae short, bipectinate. palpi thin and erected rip to the centre of the irons. Forewing: veins 2 —5 
separated, the upper part of the cell retracted to the base, vein 6 from the upper angle of the cell. 7—10 stalked 
from the same place, 9 and 10 coalescent. a small convex accessory cell from near the base to the end of the 
discal cell, vein 11 arises from its anterior part. Hindwing: veins 2—5 likewise separated, 6 and 7 separated 
and parallel; 8 connected with the subcostal vein at the exterior part of the cell, free and curved at the base. 
Genotype: A. flavetta Schs. 
A. radians Hopp (168 b). G 14 mm. Forewing yellow, slightly brownish, with a silky lustre, with deepened 
cross-veins, long-fringed. Hindwing whitish yellow, fringes and abdominal margin yellow. Both wings beneath 
cream-coloured. Body and appendages pale brownish. $ 17 mm. Forewing paler at the base. Hindwing whitish 
yellow. 8a. Catharina, 2 Santos. Sao Paulo, another specimen. 
A. flavetta Dyar. Body eochrous. Wings lemon-coloured, the veins of the forewing slightly darker. 
Expanse: 16 mm. San Jean. Maroni River. French Guiana. 
A. chirma Schs. (168 b). $ body and forewing golden yellow; hindwing paler yellow. Expanse: 13 mm. 
Cayuga. Guatemala. 
8. Genus: Minonoa Dyar. 
Antennae short, bipectinate. palpi short, proboscis absent. Veins 2—5 of forewing at equal distances; 
6 arises above the discal vein, 7 and 8 as well as 9 and 10 coalescent, 11 near the end of the cell. Veins 3 and 
4 of the hindwing nearing each other at the origin, 6 arises above the discal vein, separated from vein 7 and 
parallel to it. 8 anastomoses with the subcostal vein at about the exterior third of the cell. Genotype: M. 
perbella Schs. According to Dyar who, however, has examined neither of these species D. variegata Jones and 
A. elvira Dogn. belong to this place here (loc. cit.). 
M. perbella Schs. (168 b). Body orange above, paler beneath. Forewing: basal half yellow, partly suf¬ 
fused with brown, with a brown antemedian line. Exterior half dark brown, suffused with orange behind the 
cell. A yellow dot at the apex; a double darker marginal line is divided bv a few orange spots. Hindwing 
orange; the distal margin broadly shaded with black. Expanse: 21 mm. Petropolis, Brazil. 
M. pachitea Hopp. apical and basal areas blackish brown a broad orange band between them, forming 
in the middle a projection into the apical area and widened inside. Hindwing black. Antennae, head, thorax 
and abdomen blackish brown, legs whitish. Expanse: 19 mm. Pachitea, Peru. 
9. Genus: Minacragi«les Dyar. 
Fore wing without an accessory cell; vein 11 stalked with 9, 10 absent; 6 arises above the discal vein, 
7 and 8 coalescent. 
A. arnacis Dyar. Completely milky white; the only A according to which the genus and species was 
described, is partly worn, but according to Dyar no traces of markings could be found. G type from Hoorie, 
British Guiana (C. W. Beebe).
