beneath pale, with weak fuscous irroration ; all the lines strongly expressed, those in 

 distal half thick. 



Bit3'e, Ja River, Cameroous, 2000 ft., September — November 1911. Type in 

 coll. Rothschild ; a second, not ipiite so dark, in coll. L. B. Front. 



Smaller and much darker than concenjens Warr., differing further in subcostal 

 venation and presence of fovea. The coloration recalls Aiioectonvjchnx pudem 

 Swiuh. 



59. Pigiopsis hjrposcotia sp. nov. 



(?, 24 mm. Face mostly fuscous. Palpus short, deep ochreous, third joint 

 fuscous. Vertex and autenna blackish fuscous, dollar ochreons. Thorax and 

 abdomen deep ochreous, the latter dorsal ly iufuscated except at base. 



Forewing with fovea ; SC'~^ coincident, free ; ochreous, clouded throughout, 

 except at costal margin and middle of costal area, with deeper, more ferruginous 

 ochreous ; extreme costal edge black to beyond two-thirds, then with a sub- 

 triangular black spot, nearer the apex a second, flatter black mark ; between the 

 black edging and SO, the ochreons ground-colour is dotted with black ; no other 

 definite markings, only a paler obliijue line from before two-thirds hindmargiu, 

 running in direction of apex, very faintly indicated and di.stally to the same some 



slight purple-fuscous shading from hindmargin to middle of wing. Hindwiny 



with the same ground-colour, but almost entirely clouded over, excepting the 

 extreme base and an ill-defined line across the middle of the wing, with deep 

 purjile-fuscous (almost black) ; fringe remaining ochreous. 



Forewing beneath ochreons, with slight dark mottlings in cell, a distinct discal 

 dot and a slightly curved snbterminal baud from tornus to near apex, tapering 

 anteriorly. Hindwing slightly paler ochreous, with dark discal dot and terminal 

 band, its proximal part corresponding to the subterminal band of forewing. 



Bitye, Ja River, S. Cameroons, April to June 1910, lesser rains (G. L. Bates). 

 Type in coll. Rothschild. 



Near the preceding.

 slightly less broad. Head, body and legs concolorous with wings. Abdomen with 

 ill-defined pale dorsal spots. 



Forewiny pale ochreous, coarsely irrorated with ferruginous brown, some of the 

 ferruginous scales finely tipped with dark fuscous ; a slight sprinkling of silver)', 

 especially noticeable about the lines ; costal edge deeper ochreous, with some fuscous 

 spots; first line ferruginous, sometimes mixed with fuscous, strongly excurved in 

 cell, so as to approach median line; median line dark purple-fuscous, firm, almost or 

 quite straight, from two-fifths costa, crossing DC, to about middle of hindmargiu ; 

 postmedian line ferruginous, weak ; lunulate inward and with irregular projecting 

 teeth outward on the veins, between which stand roundish pale spots ; subterminal 

 line fuscous, moderately thick, formed as in most of the genus ; terminal line 



fuscous, uninterrupted ; fringe with fuscous spots opposite the veins. Ihndioing
