and terminates on the inner margin in the usual V-shaped spot; the postmedian 

 macular band is darkest and broadest opposite the end of the cell, and is edged in- 

 wardly and outwardly by lighter lines; the submarginal line which is somewhat 

 irregularly curved is thinner and not as conspicuous as the other lines; it is succeeded 

 just before the margin by a series of semilunate darker spots in the interspaces from 

 the upper angle as far down as vein 3; between veins 2 and 3 there is a conspicuous 

 ocellus, defined above and on the sides, but not outwardly, by red. The pupil is deep 

 black irrorated with a few bright metallic blue scales; at the inner angle there is an 

 imperfectly formed ocellus, red above, pupilled with black, and dusted with a few 

 bright scales. The marginal line is thin and dark and contrasts against the paler 

 shade within and the lighter cilia without. Expanse, 16-20 mm. 



The collection contains three specimens, all caught at Meclje, one in 

 April, one in June, and one in July. They are males. The type and a 

 paratype are in The American Museum of Natural History, one para- 

 type is in the Holland Collection in the Carnegie Museum. I take plea" 

 sure in naming this species in honor of the amiable curator of the entomo- 

 logical collections of the American Museum.

There are two males, one caught at Risimu in September 1909, the 

 other at Medje in July 1910. The insect is not uncommon in the 

 interior of Cameroon, but I have never seen a female and this sex seems, 

 so far as I can now recall, never to have been thus far described.
