(659) 3. Boarmia (?) species 



A somewhat defective male, which upon the whole seems best re- 

 ferred to this genus but which I cannot determine specifically. It was 

 caught at Medje, August 3, 1910. 



Negla Walker 



(660) 1. Negla tenuiorata (Walker) 

 Narthecusa tenuiorata Walker, 1862, List Lep. Het. B. M., XXIY, p. 1140. 



Four males and one female of this common species taken at Medje 

 in July and August 1910. 



Amnemopsyche Butler 



(661) 1. Amnemopsyche circumdata (Walker) 

 Girpa circumdata Walker, 1864, List Lep. Het. B. M., XXXI, p. 209. 



Nine specimens from scattered localities, the dates of capture 

 ranging from March to December. 



(662) 2. Amnemopsyche flavibasis (Warren) 

 Hylemera flai'ibnsis Warren, 1897, Nov. Zool., IV, p. 241. 



A single male specimen caught at Medje, April 6, 1910. The des- 

 cription given by Warren fits the insect so closel}^ as to leave no doubt as 

 to the correctness of the determination. It is strictly congeneric with 

 G. circumdata Walker. 



PiTTHEA Walker 



(663) 1. Pitthea continua Walker 

 Pitthea continua Walker, 1854, List Lep. Het. B. M., II, p. 463. 



Three specimens, two caught at Medje, one in April and the other- 

 in August, tile third captuicd at Niangara in November 1910. 



(664) 2. Pitthea famulita, new species 



Plate XIII, Figure 3, cf 

 (f. Superfifiidly resembling P. famula (Drury), but much smaller, with nar- 

 rower wings, and different markings. Antennie, eyes, and upper side of palpi deep 

 black ; lower side of palpi orange; frons, and a narrow line behind each eye pure white; 

 upper side of head, tegula>, patagia, thorax and upper side of abdomen bluish fuscous; 

 lower side of thorax blackish with orange spots at the insertion of the legs; legs 

 blackLsh marked on the tibia- with a fine white line internally; the sternites of the 

 abdomen dark orange, the pleurites having the same color as the top of the abdomen, 

 which is extended downwardly on the sternites on their posterior margin, giving the 

 orange surface of the lower side of the abdomen an annulated appearance. The pecu- 

 liar organ to which Dr. Karl .Jordan calls attention in the Novitates Zoological, 

 XII, p. 506, is well developed, as in all other species of the genus and its allies which
