Genus BAOEIS.

In this genus the upper disco-cellular uervule of the anterior wings is longer than the lower, thus 

 acrreein" with Pithauria, but it differs from that genus by the position of the median nervules of the anterior 

 wino-s, of which the second has its base about twice as far apart from the lower as from the upper median 

 nervule, thus resembling Zea, from which, liowever, it is distinguished by the very oblique position of the 

 upper median nervule. 



I have failed to discover the characters which separate the above-named three proposed 

 genera of Mr. Moore, no diagnosis of the neuration having been given in either case, save 

 that Farnara has similar venation to Chapm. Glandular tufts have been used for the separation 

 of Baoris and Chapra, but these alone have not been considered as primary generic characters 



in this work. 



It is probable that this genus has a wide Ethiopian as well as Oriental distribution, but the 

 classified material is too scanty as yet to warrant very definite conclusions on that point.

Male. Wings above dark vinous-brown, the fringe greyish-ochraceous; anterior wings with the following 

 very pale ocbraceous spots :-one in and near end of cell, two or three-small-beyond cell and before 

 apex, and three placed obliquely, divided by the iirst and second median nervules, and of which the 

 lowermost is much the largest and is subquadrate in form. Wings beneath as above. 



Female. Resembling the male, but having two spots in and near end of cell and an additional spot 

 placed between the lower median nervule and the submedian uervure. Wings beneath lighter and brighter 

 in hue than above.
