Charaxes Jahhisa, p. 325. 



A (J example, captured at Euroka, near BarLerton, Eastern Transvaal, by 

 Ih. C. F. Palmer, on the 12th JNIay 18S8, is very near the Zambesi specimen 

 mentioned iu the text, but on the upper side the ground-colour is generally 

 brighter, and not obscured near apex of fore-wings, and the black hind-mar- 

 "iual border of the hind-wings is rather broader ; wliile on the under side the 

 colouring is more vivid, and the silvery submarginal marks in upper part of 

 fore-wings are almost replaced by an enlargement of the adjacent salmon-red 

 marks. 



Mrs. Barber wrote to me in 1887 that Mr. Bourchicr Bowker had noticed 

 this butterfly in remarkable numbers in a piece of ground covered with Pappea 

 Capensis (one of the Family Sapindacece), which she believes to be one of the 

 insect's food-plants.

Like ? , but common macular band much narrower, and of a deeper tint 

 of ochreous-yelloio. Fore-ioing : hind-marginal internervular yellowish marks 

 and adjacent white marks in cilia much smaller, especially the latter. Hind- 

 idng : only three submarginal blue lunules, lying between submedian nervure 

 and third median nerviile ; both tails (but more especially that at end of third 

 median nervule) considerably shorter. (/7a&.— Delagoa Bay— two examples ; 

 and Barberton, Transvaal — one example.) 



Compared with Cramer's figure (C.) of the upper side, these South- African 

 specimens differ in having the common macular band considerably wider 

 throughout, and without perceptible ferruginous edging, and also in presenting 

 a mixUu-e of white and greenish in the hind-marginal lunules (a touch of ochre- 

 yellow in the two upper ones) quite as in the $ .
