(520) 4. Xanthospilopteryx batesi Druce

 Xanthospilopteryx batesi Jordan, 1913, Seitz, Gross-Schmett., XV, p. 5, PL iv/. 



The species is represented by two males and two females in fairly 

 good condition, all taken at Medje, the females in July, the males in 

 August. The type of the species described by Druce was a female, 

 and the two females before me agree exactly with the description given 

 by the author, but the males differ in that the hind wings on the under 

 side are sohdly black and without the "wide j'ellow band along the 

 costal margin extending from near the base almost to the apex." The 

 species was originally described from a specimen captured on the Ja 

 River, Cameroon.
