pyinjy the upper part of the medio-central interspace, itself triangular, 
consists of two portions, the outer, forming the base of the new tri¬ 
angle, of a whitish yellow ellipsoid; the inner or apex, contained in 
the angle formed by the median nervure and medio-central nervule, 
is greenish. Within the cell, opposite the medio-superior nervule and 
above the whitish ovoid, a small spot of white atoms. Fringe, brownish. 
Inferior wings, dentate, black; centre of the wing occupied by a red 
spot, palmate, divided by the nervules into six parts. The first, in the 
lower third of the discoidal cellule, has the remaining five, radiating 
from it; the second, third and fourth, occupying the disco-central, and 
the medio-superior and central interspaces, are cuneiform and trun¬ 
cated, the third and fourth being the longest; the fifth, of the same 
length as'the second, has its sides parallel, and occupies the medio- 
posterior interspace; the sixth is linear, extending along the medio- 
posterior nervule. Emarginations, reddish. 
Below, superior wings, brownish-black, blue reflections near the base; 
a transverse white band, is divided into three parts by the median 
nerve and nervules; the two largest, occupy the same relative position 
as the whitish marks on the upper surface, the third is a mere dot in 
lower angle of the medio-superior interspace. Inferior wings, blackish- 
brown ; a macular band^ of pink, divided by the nervules into six spots, 
extends from the post-apical nervule to the interior margin. The first, 
second and third are cuneiform, truncated; the fourth and fifth, paral- 
lellograms, the latter having its sides equal; the sixth, a round spot 
near the anal margin. These are all below the discoidal cellule and 
correspond to the lower parts of the markings on the upper surface. 
Guatemala. 
This species, found near the Copan river, closely resembles F. 
C^mochles E. Doubleday, but is larger and differs in the arrangement 
of the whitish marks on the superiors, and in the size and palmation 
of the red spots on the inferior wings.
