No sexual characters on wings. * cephala, Hew }• *bononia, Hew *• « Hesperia?" cephaloides, de Niceville, also probably belongs to thThereUis no doubt that cephala aud bononia are congeneric and Distant puts the latter into his genus Isma, though, judging from the plate, the type species obscura appears to differ from bononia considerably.

Fore wing produced at apex, inner margin slightly longer than outer margin ; cell less than two-thirds length of costa ; vein 12 reaching costa well before the end of cell; discocellulars suberect; vein 5 slightly nearer to 4 than to 6 ; vein 3 shortly before the end of cell; vein 2 from close to base of wing (in the female vein 2 will probably be found to be further removed from the base). Hind wing : outer margin evenly rounded ; vein 7 well before the end of cell; discocellulars faint; vein 5 not traceable; vein 3 shortly before end of cell; vein 2 nearer to end of cell thau to base of wing. Hind tibise naked and with two pairs of spurs. Male with an oval glandular patch at extreme base of fore wing, more conspicuous on the underside, with a tuft of longish hairs, directed upwards, affixed to the inner margiu of the fore wing on the underside, with a similar tuft of laxly set hairs on the upper-side of the hind wing near the base of the costal margin, and with a fringe of long hairs at the anal angle of hind wing. iapis, de N.

Hind wing : outer margin slightly excavated at vein 2 ; veiu 7 well before the end of cell, arising at an acute angle ; vein 3 immediately before end of cell; vein 2 very close to vein 3, more than twice as far from base of wing as from end of cell; lower |
