NOVITATES ZOOLOOICAF. XXII. lOlS, 



ill-ilofinoil ]mlo streak, lintli wings with the hand between postmedian anil snh- 

 tei-minal bright ochreons, strongly mixed with bright ferruginous, and with a pale 

 violet-grey baud distally to the subterrainal, that of the hiudwing reaching the 

 termen ; hindwing without black terminal line or light line at base of fringe. 

 Bitye, .Ta River, Cameroons. Type in eoll. L. B. Front. 



137. Xenimpia repudiosa sp. nov. 

 c?, 'JO mm. Face red-brown. Pali)ns pale ochreons, deep red-brown above 

 antl on outer side, third joint spotted with red-brown. Vertex and antennal shaft 

 pale ochreons, the latter dark-spotted. Thorax and abdomen pale ochreons, strongly 

 irrorated with red-brown. 



Forewinq with termen only feebly sinnate in anterior half; S(J'~- long-stalked ; 

 pale ochreons, irrorated with red-brown, especially proximally, apieally, tornally, 

 and along costa ; markings deep pnrple-fnscons, almost black, consisting of some 

 irroration at base, a thick straight line a little proximally to middle of wing, arising 

 from a costal spot ; a slightly sinnons postmedian row of large vein-dots, arising 

 also from a costal spot, and a large, amorphons tornal blotch ; a vagne band of 

 less deep pnrple-fnscons proximally to the antemedian line ; a ronnd pale spot 

 near termen, placed between Sf)-' and R' ; a terminal line of thick blackish 

 internenral dashes ; fringe bisected by a weak red-brown line and with strong 



blackish spots opposite the veins. Eimhving with apex truncate but not or 



scarcely emarginate, termen scarcely sinnate in anterior half, slightly prominent 

 at R'-M" ; antemedian line and band, tornal blotch and snbmarginal pale spot 

 wanting ; on the other hand with blackish-fuscous subapical spot. 



Underside similarly marked, the antemedian line diffuse and not sharp, the 

 fuscous shade proximally to it strong except at costa and continued as a line on 

 hindwing. 



? 30 mm. Antenna snbserrate. 



Forewing more clouded with light purple-fnscous, especially distally to post- 

 median line, leaving a large ronnd pale spot between R= and M-. lUmhnng 



with termen rather more scalloped ; more nniformly snffused with light pnrple- 

 fuscous, especially in distal half. 



Bitye, Ja River, Cameroons, type S and others in coll. L. B. Front ; both 

 sexes in coll. Rothschild. A worn S, three days from Fort Beni, Congo Free 

 State, May 7, 18'J9 (Dr. Ansorge), in coll. Rothschild. 



Not a typical Xenimpia, the palpus and foreleg showing less long projecting 

 scaling and a fovea being present. A cJ in coll. W. F. H. Rosenberg is a sport 

 in venation, SC^ being obsolete on left forewing and its distal end obsolete 

 on right. 



138. Hypochrosis euphyes sp. nov. 

 ?, 60 mm. Face and palpus reddish orange. Vertex and antennal shaft 

 pale; pectinations longisb. Occipnt red-orange. Thorax above olive-green, 

 beneath ochreons. Legs ochreons, mixed (especially foreleg) with red-orange. 

 Abdomen ochreons, tinged with olive dorsally. 



Foreifiiig ample, with apex somewhat falcate ; SC= arising from stalk of 

 St;'-', anastomosing with SC, which (as nsual) arises from C; glossy olive-green, 

 mixed (except at base and on the lines) with shining bine-grey scales ; lines 

 thick, indicated l)y absence of blue-grey admixture ; antemedian at nearly two-
