" Common on shady paths, settling with the wings open, thus 

 escaping observation unless it rises, when it is difficult to catch, 

 owing to its strong flight." — C. G.

41. EuPHJEDRA JANETTA {Biitl.).—a. Jebba ; May. 



42. EuPHiEDRACROSSEi, sp. H. — 3 . Primaries differing from 

 the typical E. crockeri, Butler, in having a large ochre-yellow 

 patch on the apical area, as well as a yellowish bronze shading 

 along the inner margin. Secondaries : Central area rather more 

 uniform steel-blue, the other spots and markings not differing 

 from those indicated in other varieties of E. crockeri. Under 

 side similar to that of E. crockeri. Expanse, 2'4 in. 



Hab. Mozum, Benue River ; June, 1899. Type. 



This species, which belongs to the E. crockeri group, has 

 apparently not been named. Two specimens are in the British 

 Museum, one from the Cameroons, and the other from the Lower 

 Niger (Asaba?), collected by Dr. E. W. Crosse. In this genus 

 some of the species have a yellow phase, but whether this can be 

 attributed to a seasonal change of colour remains to be deter- 

 mined.
