The markings on tho under side of tlio hind-wings of this very 

 distinct species are much like those of the European Cyclopides Sieropes 

 (W. v.), but narrower, less numerous, rather duller, and not so strongly 

 black-edged. 



Though apparently very scarce in collections, Collides has so wide a known 

 range that it is probably not rare in favourable localities. Daniaraland seems 

 to be its favourite country ; the first examples that I saw Avere taken in that 

 territory by the late Mr. C. J. Andersson and INIr. H. Hutchinson. Hewitson 

 records" the butterfly from Angola. Colonel Bowker in 1880 took a, ? ex- 

 ample in Upper Natal, and Mrs. Monteiro sent a $ from Delagoa Bay in 1883. 

 I have also received a $ (without special locality) in a collection made by Mr. 

 F. C. Selous in the country between Transvaal and the Zambesi. Butler in 

 1885 noted {Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1886, p. 775) two specimens from Somali- 

 land.

^ Veri/ dark hrown, with fulvous or ochreous-yellow bars and spots ; 

 bases toith odire-yelloiu scaling and short hairs. Fore-wing : basal half 

 of costa broadly clouded with ferruginous or yellow-ochreous ; a mode- 

 rate-sized subquadrate spot at extremity of discoidal cell ; on disc an 

 irregular, inuardly-oblique, inferiorly wider band from costa to sub- 

 median nervure, interrupted subcostally on lower radial nervule, sepa- 

 rated from cellular spot only by median nervure, and emitting a narrow 

 ray along submedian nervure towards base ; in the ferruginous-marked 

 examples there is a tinge of that colour over the upper separate part 

 of this discal band. Eind-wing : a rather large obliquely-transverse 

 discal patch, commencing abruptly widely on second subcostal nervule, 

 and terminating narrowly on basal portion of median nervules. Cilia
