In the following only the species with which I am acquainted 

 are referred to. Several unknown to me have been described 

 by Druce, and there are probably others concealed other under 

 generic names. It is impossible to do anything with these until 

 the opportunity arises of examining specimens. Many of the 

 species of this group are similar in coloration, while unlike in 

 venation, so that the descriptions are useless for placing the 

 described species in their proper genera, since these deal only 

 with the coloration.
