380 NOVITATES ZOOLOQICAE XXII. 1915. 



violaceous scales ; jiroximal area, and meflian area as far as a vagae, straight, 

 median shade wliich crosses the discal dot, sligiitly darker than distal area ; discal 

 dot round, blacic, not minnte ; two fine dark lines ; antemedian ver)' sinnons, from 

 nne-tliird costa to beyond two-fifths hiudmargin, the deepest sinns being inwards 

 Iietween fold and M' ; postmedian obli(ine, from nearly two-thirds hindmargin, 

 nearly straight till after crossing R', then gently recurved to costal margin ; fringe 



paler proximally than distally. Ilindwiny with termen more convex than in 



the other species, waved, slightly bent at R^ ; C anastomosing shortly with SO ; 

 postmedian line of forewing continued across centre, becoming rather indistinct and 

 difl'nse, and passing distally to tlie hyaline, black-edged cell-mark, which is rather 

 small and narrow, but with slight distal tooth at radial fold and proximal one 

 behind it in cell. 



Underside yellower, especially the hindwing, both wings with olive-brown 

 strignlations and clondings ; costal and hind-margins of iorewing in part paler ; 

 discal marks and postmedian line present : forewing in addition with an elongate 

 whitish subterminal patch from before R' to near R^ hindwing with a dark snli- 

 apical patch at termen from near (' to R'. 



Njoro, British East Africa (A. J. Oholmley). Type in coll. Brit. Mus. 



134. Psilocladia loxostignia sp. nov. 



c?, 29 mm. Face fascous, becoming grey above. Palpus fnscons, rather 

 paler beneath. Vertex and antenna grey. Thorax grey, with a brown band across 

 front. Foreleg grey, on upper and outer sides brown. Abdomen grey, dorsally 

 mixed with brown. 



Forewing grey, irrorated with brown and with a few dark fuscous scales, 

 costal area to middle and entire distal area predominantly brown ; a fine antemedian 

 line from beyond one-fourth costa, vertical to hindmargin, slightly sinuate inward 

 behind M ; a very oblique fuscous cell-mark ; median shade obsolete except at 

 hindmargin, where it forms a vague brown spot near the antemedian ; postmedian 

 forming a straight line of small brown, fuscous-centred vein-spots from two-thirds 

 costa to beyond two-thirds hindmargin; a white snbapical dot between SC^ and R' ; 

 fringe brown, with dark spots. Hindwing similarly coloured; without ante- 

 median line ; median shade complete, but thin and not sharp ; a small black discal 

 dot ; postmedian, terminal area and fringe nearly as on forewing, without 

 subapical dot. 



Underside similar, forewing without first line, its discal mark thick and black, 

 median shade rather better developed. 



Nola, French Congo. Type in coll. L. B. Prout. 



Considerably broader winged than the type species, termen of both wings 

 sinuate in anterior half ; the antennae are damaged, but appear to have been dentate 

 or subpectinate, with fascicles of cilia — in this respect a transition between 

 Psilocladia and Xenimpia. 



135. Xenimpia angusta sp. nov. 



? , 31-32 mm. Related to con/ormis Warr. {Nor. Zool. v. 39), antenna with 

 similar short pectinations, both wings slightly narrower, forewing with termen 

 smoother, hindmargin not appreciably concave. Hea<l and body concoloroas 

 with wings.
