thicker than in B., and -with its terminal hook more bent ; 

 palpi normal. — F. Zaw. 



D. Antennae short ; their club as in C. — P. lugens. 



E. Antennae very short ; their club short and thick, with the 



terminal hook exceedingly small, short, and slender, and 

 consisting of a single joint. — P. hottentota. 



F. Autennte rather long ; their club rather long and stout, with 



the terminal hook rather long and Bharj^ly recurved. — P. 

 Moritili and P. Ayresii. 



G. Antennae rather short ; their club as in F. — P. Monasi, P. Bor- 



honica, P. Fatuellus, and P. Mohopaani. 

 H. AntennaB long ; their club as in F. and G. — P. Erinnys, P. 

 dysmcpMla, and P. Fiara. 



The colouring of most of them is dull; CaUidcs (with clearly- 

 defined pale-yellow spots on a brown ground above and black-ringed 

 white spots on a yellow ground beneath), Morantii, and Zeno (with 

 warm ochre-yellow macular bands on a brown ground above), and 

 Frinnys (with colouring like the last on the hind-wings above, and a 

 whitish varied bronzy- glossed under-side), being the only species of a 

 somewhat gayer aspect. 



The most widely distributed species are Hottentota and Moliopaani, 

 both of which occur near Cape Town occasionally, and are recorded 

 from both Tropical belts. CaUidcs is known from such remote points as 

 Damaraland and Somaliland, but in South Africa seems to have been 

 met with only at Delagoa Bay and Natal. Borhonica inhabits Natal 

 and Transvaal as well as Madagascar and the Mascarene Islands. All 

 the remaining species belong to the south-eastern side, and six of 

 them are known to occur within the Southern Tropic. The four which 

 appear to bo confined to South Africa are Monasi (limited to Natal), 

 and Erimiys, Dysmtyliila, and Fiara, all of which inhabit Kaffraria and 

 Natal, and penetrate as far as the eastern districts of the Cape Colony. 

 The rarest of the South -African species are CaUidcs, Morantii, Zeno, 

 Lugens, and Ayresii.
