angulatutl .sul);ipical band tVoni costal nervure to near first 

 median branch and a bifid patcli on inner margin white, 

 divided by black nervnres ; secondaries with a broad 

 central wliite band ; nei'vnros and internervular folds on 

 disc dusky ; base black s])otted ; body as in preceding 

 species ; primaries below witli apical area to external angle 

 greyish olivaceous, the nervnres and folds black ; secondaries 

 with external area greyish olivaceous, interrupted by black 

 folds and nervnres : base slightly pinkish, with about 

 fourteen black spots, arranged much as in F. Protect : 

 expanse oi" wings, 2 inches, 8 lines. 



Ambriz and Bembe (J. J. Montciro). B.M. 



This may possibly be a form of P. Protect, although I 

 think not; the Bembe specimen approaches more closely 

 to the Natal species than the type from Ambriz, the second 

 median branch of primaries being broadly l^ordered with 

 dusky so as to cut off the end of tlic subapical fasciole, 

 leaving it as a spot upon first median interspace.

Intermediate in character between P. Unihra, Drury, (of 

 which we have a pair) and P. Alcinco'e, Felder* (of wliich 

 we have three males, one female, and a pupa-skin) ; it 

 is distinguished from both by the more perpendicular 

 and differently shaped band of primaries, which in the 

 female is ochreous, and by the dark basal half of the same 

 wings : expanse, 3 inches, 4 lines. 

 Giibooii {Pu CJiaillu) c?, ? • B.M. 



A very distinct and well marked species, the sexes of 

 which were rightly divined by Mr. Hewitson, although he 

 scrupled to separate it from the perfectly constant P. Earyta 

 of Liniueus : of the latter species we have tlu-ee males and 

 two females, all from Sierra Leone : I have no doubt what- 

 ever that the two insects figured at pi. iv., fig. 26 and pi. \., 

 fig. 31 are also sexes of a fine distinct species allied to 

 P. Euryta, for which I propose the name of P. Excisa : Mr. 

 Hewitson gives Congo as its locality.
