Holland: Two New West African Rhopalocera. 17 



spot, with its apex pointing inwardly. Above this, between veins 

 3 and 4, there are two spots, the outer one large and long, fusiform, 

 the inner small and subtriangular, with its base at the point of origin 

 of vein 4. Between veins 4 and 5, immediately before the end of the 

 cell, is a small suboval spot, which is rounded inwardly, conforming to 

 the course of the ! i>ver discocellular vein, and outwardly is less clearly 

 defined. Above vein 5 and a little beyond the last mentioned white 

 spot there is a band of white running inwardly and upwardly to the 

 costa, narrowing from vein 5 as it approaches the costal margin. 

 There are three smaller white spots, forming a subapical band, located 

 on the fifth, sixth, and seventh interspaces. The inner half of the 

 hindwing is white, passing into ochre-yellow near the inner margin 

 and on the outer third as far forward as the extremity of vein 5. 

 The hind wing is tailed at the extremity of the first and second median 

 nervules (veins 2 and 4). The outer border is broadly black, each 

 interspace ornamented with a more or less oval white submarginal 

 spot, except at the inner angle, where there are two such spots in the 

 interspace between the extremities of the inner vein and the first 

 median nervule. At the end of veins 2 to 6 on either side are sub- 

 triangular small white spots, which at the end of veins 2 and 4 are 

 continued outwardly upon the tails, which, as also the entire outer 

 border of the wing, are narrowly margined with black. A few blue 

 scales form a faint lunule over the small white spot which is the 

 innermost of the two nearest the anal angle. Under side of the wings: 

 The markings of the upper side are for the most part repeated on the 

 under side, with the following difi^erences: the fore wings at the 

 base are deep ochre-yellow, in the cell there are a number of deep 

 black spots, one immediately at the base, coalescing with another 

 just beyond it projecting inwardly from the costa, opposite the latter 

 spot on the lower margin of the cell is a small round spot, at the 

 middle of the cell are two conspicuous somewhat oval spots tending 

 to coalesce with each other, at the end of the cell is a large irregular 

 spot suggesting the rude outline of a comma, in the head of which is 

 a small quadrangular spot of pale yellow, beyond the cell on vein 2, 

 just beyond its origin, is a small black spot, about a millimeter in 

 diameter, which stands forth conspicuously upon the white ground of 

 this part of the wing. Near the base of the hind wing are six narrow 

 black streaks conforming at their extremities in their course to the 

 neuration of this part of the wing, but crossing the cell; the outer
