The type, a female from S. Africa, is in the National 

 Collection ; it is very faded and worn, and has lost its 

 abdomen, but the markings are distinguishable ; the 

 insect is very variable, but the markings can be traced 

 through all the variations.

Walker's types are in this Museum from South Africa, 

 where the species seems to be quite common ; Warren's 

 type, a male from the Escarpment, is in coll. Rothschild. 



This species is superficially not distinguishable from 

 Poly stroma s%d)spissata, Warr., Nov. Zool., iv, p. 237, but 

 the latter can easily be separated by the male having a 

 tuft of black hair, on the fore-wing below, somewhat as in 

 the genus Fhotoscotosia.
