postmedian line present, dotted on the veins, and a (sometimes almost 

 obsolete) fuscous subrnarginal band. 



Cape, Hout Bay (W. L. Sclater), type in coll. S. Afr. Mus. ; para- 

 types from the same locality and Kalk Bay in coll. Brit. Mus. et coll. 

 L. B. Front. 



Possibly a local race of the Abyssinian integraria Gucn. (Spec. Gen. 

 Lep. ix, 166), which I only know from Guene's description and 

 Oberthur's figure (a 9,Et. Lep. ix,fig. 1903), but with the postmedian 

 lines appreciably different from those of both Guene's species, 'the 

 large, conspicuous ocellus of the hindwing above distinctive, etc. 



GEN. PAEECLIPSIS Warr. 



35. PARECLIPSIS ONUS, sp. nov. 



J 1 . 34mm. Face without projecting cone ; palpus apparently short 

 (head somewhat crushed) ; antenna rather strongly lamellate ; struc- 

 ture otherwise agi'eeiug with pit net at a Warr. (Nov. Zool. vii, 97). 

 Head and body concolorous with wings. 



Forewing with costal margin slightly sinuous, apex round-pointed, 

 termen oblique, curved towards middle, becoming more oblique behind ; 

 SO 2 anastomosing at a point with SO 3 '* ; glossy, broccoli-brown, with 

 minute rather sparse and very inconspicuous blackish-grey irroration ; 

 a rather large (nearly 1 mm. diameter), roundish, not very sharply 

 denned grey-black discal spot beyond middle ; a very faint line of 

 small grey vein-dots passing midway between this and termen, nearly 

 parallel with the latter but with a very slight curve inward between 

 R 1 and SM*. Hindwiiuj paler, in some lights appearing almost whitish ; 

 cell-dot smaller than on forewing ; postmedian dots almost entirely 

 obsolete, faintly discernible near abdominal margin, more proximally 

 placed than on forewiug. Forewing beneath slightly paler than above, 

 at least posteriorly ; cell-spot and postmedian line of dots reproduced, 

 the latter slightly more distinct anteriorly. Hindwing beneath rather 

 less white than above ; cell-dot reproduced ; postmedian line of dots 

 distinct throughout.
