Palpares pardaloides Weele. 



Figured by Van der Weele, Madagascar, Figure 5; also the male appendages 

 on page 257. 



Fourth anal of f. w. with four branches and two cross-veins; third 

 anal of h. w. simple, no cross-vein to second. Legs deep black. 



In the Brussels Museum is a long series from Madagascar 

 that tends to connect this species to P. insularis. 



Palpares nigrita Navas. 



Figure — Plate XIX, Figure 27, and Navas, original. 



Fourth anal in f. w. with two branches and two cross-veins; third 

 anal of h. w. simple, and one straight cross-vein to the second anal. No 

 band under antennse. 



P. languidus Navas appears also to go here, but the figure 

 of the hind wing is broader than usual. 



This is a species that stands in the Rambur collection 

 with the label P. manicatus R., P. tigris Walk. var. de tigris 

 Dalm, and also a label "Seneg" Rambur's manicatus according 

 to him had two radial sectors like tigris, and with no locality 

 label, so I cannot believe that this specimen is Rambur's t3"pe 

 of P. manicatus. I figure the hind wing of this specimen, 

 (figure 27). 



Palpares walkeri McLach. 



Figure— Plate XIX, Figure 21; Navas, Broteria X, p. 35. 



Fourth anal of f . w. with two or three branches, and two cross-veins; 

 third anal of h. w. simple, three or more cross-veins to second, and one 

 to fourth. No band under antenna. 



P. dispar Navas seems to be the same species. 

 Palpares angustus McLach. 



Figure— Plate XVIII, Figure 7. 



Fourth anal in f . w. with three branches, and four cross-veins ; third 

 anal of h. w. has an oblique cross-vein to second and two cross-veins 

 before it. Legs all deep black; the stigmal band of the hind wings 

 sometimes has an upper inner projection. There is no band under 

 antennae. 



The variety oranensis grades into the type. 



Palpares hispanus Linn. 

 Figure — Navas, Inseeta, 1911, p. 265. n 



The fourth anal of f. w. has one or two short branches and two 

 cross-veins; the third anal of h. w. is simple, with an oblique cross-vein 

 to second, but none to fourth. The marks on the abdomen (Fig. 33) 

 are very characteristic; as in other species there is much variation in 

 the extent of the marks on wings, and in the width of the hind \vings.
