1920] Holland, Lepidoptera of the Congo 151 



where it crosses the middle of the cell, being invaded by a sharp tooth-like projection 

 of the dark basal area of the wing. There is a regular curved series of black circular 

 spots beginning between veins 2 and 3 and running upward to the costa, the spots 

 gradually increasing in size toward the costa, and being located nearer the outer 

 margin of the band than its inner margin. On the lower side of the Avings there is a 

 dark narrow line of deeji brown or black which runs from the tip of the tail-like pro- 

 jection of the anal angle of the hind wing to about the middle of the costa of the fore 

 wing, simulating the appearance of the mid-rib of a leaf. On either side of this 

 central transverse line the wings are more or less rufous, irregularly mottled with 

 darker brown, and being heavilj' clouded with dark brown at the apex of the primaries 

 and the anal angle of the secondaries. The fore wings near the apex and the hind 

 wings near the anal angle are marked with lighter marginal and submarginal narrow 

 lines and more or less frosted with light-colored scales. The series of spots which are 

 conspicuous on the upper side reappear on the lower side in the intc'spaces, but on 

 the lower side are pupilled with white, in most, but not in all cases. 



9 . The female is not vmlike the male, but the Avings are broader, and at the 

 apex of the primaries not so strongly falcate, and the transverse band of the second- 

 aries is more or less creamy white, especiallj^ toward the anal angle. Expanse, cf, 

 45-50 mm. ; 9 , 50-55 mm. 



The male type (Medje) is in The American Museum of Natural History, the 

 female allotype (Cameroon) is in the Holland Collection in the Carnegie Museum. 



Four males were taken by the Lang-Chapin Expedition at Medje, the dates 

 of capture ranging from July to September. 



I have long had this species in my collection, where it is represented 

 by specimens collected for me many years ago in southern Cameroon 

 by the late Dr. A. C. Good. I take pleasure in naming it in honor of my 

 friend, Prof. Henry Fairfield Osborn of The American Museum of 

 Natural History, with whom I have spent many pleasant hours both at 

 home and abroad in the pursuit of pleasure and knowledge.

The collection upon which I am reporting contains six males and 

 one female. Four of the males were taken at Medje in June and July, 

 the other two at Niangara in November. The female was captured at 

 Medje in September. The transverse band in the female is much lighter 

 than in the males, inclining to yellowish.
