Genus ANARTIA, Doubleday Butterfly.—1 he head is small; the eyes are round and promi- nent; the tongue is long; the anicnnae are relatively long, having the club short, compressed, and pointed. The palpi have the second joint thick, the third joint gradually taper- ing and lightly clothed with scales. The fore wings are rounded at the apex, and have the outer and inner margins somewhat excavated. The outer margin of the hind wings is sinuous, produced at the end of the third median nervule. The cell of the hind wing is open. The sub- costal nervules in the fore wing are remarkable because of the tendency of the first and second to fuse with the costal vein. The prothoracic feet of the Fig. 99.—Neu- male are small and weak; of the female, stronger, ration of the genus r, , _, ~, -. , ° Anartia.

The others are found in Central and South America. (1) Anartia jatrophse, Linnaeus, Plate XX, Fig. 13, $ (The White Peacock). Butterfly.—There can be no mistake made in the identifica- tion of this species if the figure we give is consulted. The male and female are much alike. Expanse, inches. Early Stages.—So far as is known to me, these have never been described. The butterfly is common throughout the '74.
