50:^ [Marcs 
Secondaries more delicate, skewing distinctly the dark markings of 
the under side. 
Under side of primaries with the markings repeated, the sub-margi¬ 
nal band more distinct, the bar reaching the costa and there dilated. 
Secondaries have all the nervures broadly edged with greenish scales, 
so that none of the white surface appears except in narrow stripes in 
the interspaces; near the hind margin the green edges are connected 
together by scales of a darker shade, making a sub-marginal band much 
as in the female of Protodice. 
Female. Nearly same size with similar markings but more conspicu¬ 
ous ; the under side scarcely dilfering from the male. 
This species appears to have been hitherto overlooked. In the col¬ 
lection of Mr. G-eo. Newman and Mr. Wilt are several specimens, 
taken, as J am informed, at Ked Bank, New Jersey, in the month of 
May, in company with A. Genutia. It differs decidedly from Proto- 
dice., the only eastern species to which it is allied. There is also in 
the Society’s collection a pair from the Bocky Mountains, that appear 
to be identical with it. 
Eresia cincta, nov. sp. 
Male. Expands inch. Upper side fuscous, with a broad belt of 
white across the middle of both wings, interrupted on primaries so as 
to leave an oval spot placed obliquely on the costa; primaries have four 
or five sub-apical white points, and one in the cell; both wings bordered 
by obscure brown lunules; fringes white, fuscous at tip of the nervules. 
Under side of primaries with same spots and band; in secondaries the 
band is crossed longitudinally by a faint, irregular, brown line, which 
is darker on the costa and dilated; base of primaries cream-color; apex 
greyish; the two middle marginal lunules white ; base of secondaries 
grey white with wavy brown lines; the lunules distinct, edged with 
white; above these, a row of rounded black spots; the submarginal 
space clouded with white.

“This species resembles E. leucodesma of Felder, a Venezuelan spe¬ 
cies, but is distinct from it.” Mr. H. W. Bates in lit.

Alale. Expands inch. Upper side deep fulvous; base of wings
