16. Tingra cydaria sp. nov. 



Allied to T. jjuucipanclata Kirby, which it closely resembles. The i'oll(Jwiiig 

 differences occur in T. cydaria : — 



On the upperside of the anterior wings the apical dark band is continued 

 broadly along the outer margin, terminating on the snbmedian nerviire, and the 

 spots at the ends of the cells on both wings are larger. 



On the vnderside these spots are also larger, and in the row of spots round 

 the disc of the posterior wings the spot between the two upper median nervules 

 is the largest; these wings are also less dusky than in T. paucipunctata. 



E.xpanse of wings : 1 1 inches. 



Ilab. Warri, May 1896 (Dr. Roth). 



IT. Teriomima pusio sp. nov. 



Upperside : both wings rather brownish yellow. Anterior wings with a broad 

 brownish black apical and outer-marginal band extending half-way along the costal 

 margin, but gradually becoming narrower. On the posterior wings is a dark 

 outer-marginal band, broadest in the middle, and not quite reaching the apex. 



Underside : paler brownish yellow. On the anterior wings is a small dusky spot 

 at the end of the cell, in which and on the costal margin are a few dusky markings, 

 and a narrow dusky line near the outer margin. Posterior wings with a minute 

 dusky spot at the end of the cell, and a few small dusky spots near the costal margin 

 towards the base, and a row of narrow dusky lines at the ends of the veins near 

 the outer margin. 



Expanse of wings : f inch. 



Ilab. Warri, April 18'JO (Dr. Roth). 



Near to T. dmilis Kirby, but on the upperside of the anterior wings the dark 

 apical area extends farther along the costal margin, and on the posterior wings the 

 dark marginal border is narrower and does not extend to the apex. 



18. Teriomima fuscula sp. nov. 



Femal?:. — Upperside: both wings brownish grey. Anterior wings with the 

 disc crossed from near the costa about its middle to the lowest median nervule by 

 a very irregular cni'ved pale tawny band, narrowest on the upper discoidal nervule, 

 widest between the two upper median nervules, thence narrowing rapidly to the 

 lowest median nervule; a small spot in the cell, one rather obscure spot at its end, 

 and one below the first-named spot. Posterior wings with the disc crossed about 

 the middle by a narrow interrujjted irregular pale tawny baud. 



Underside : paler than above, with pale tawny spots and bands. Anterior wings 

 with three small spots in the cell and the tawny discal band as on the upperside, 

 outside which are two rows of spots between the veins, one extending from the costa 

 to the uppermost median nervule, the other submargiual from near the apex to the 

 outer angle. On the posterior wings are a series of s])ots crossing the wings in six 

 irregular rows, those in the fourth row across the middle of the disc confluent, and 

 those in the outermost row, towards the apex, extending inwardly and becoming 

 confluent with the upper spots of the fifth row. 



Expanse of wings : | inch. 



Hah. Warri, May 1896 (Dr. Hotli). 



Nearest to T. alberta Stuud.
