40 Dr. G. B. Longstaff on 
(miles). It is found in Abyssinia, Somaliland (the commonest 
butterfly at Zaila), the Victorian Nyanza district, British 
East Africa, German East Africa and in Senegal. 
In two males I detected a slight scent, in one described 
as “ sweet,” in the other as “ stuffy.” 
55. Teracolus achine, Cramer. 
This fine species is variable and accordingly has received 
several names. J’. svmplex, Sharpe, was described from a 
dry-season male from Durban; antevippe, Boisduval, and 
helle, Butler, are names given by the latter author to 
Petherick’s specimens (both sexes) from the White Nile. 
Selous, in 1911, took two males of the extreme dry-season 
form at Tawfikiya [Lat. 9° 25’ N.]. 
In 1912 I secured four males and two females on the 
White Nile, viz. single specimens at Diléb (not far from 
Tawfikiya), Hillet al-Nuwér, Kanisa and Kiré, and a 
pair at Rejaf. From these occurrences it may be gathered 
that on the White Nile 7. achine is confined to localities 
south of Lat. 9° 30’ N., and that it is not very common 
anywhere. 
Cholmley took a dry-season male (svmplex, Sharpe) 
north of Suakin. Peel took a wet-season female in Somali- 
land. I took six males and four females at Port Sadan. 
It occurs in Rhodesia, Natal, and Cape Colony, and 
indeed probably over the whole of Africa south of the 
Sahara, if with Dr. Dixey we reckon the West African 
T. cartert, Butler, as a sub-species. 
56. Teracolus evippe, Linné. 
The form of this variable species usually met with on 
the White Nile is epigone, Felder, which is the same as 
microcale, Butler. 
Petherick took a male somewhere on the White Nile. 
Loat took a male and six females at Mongalla. 
I did not meet with this species in 1909, but in 1912 
took twelve males and twoj}females in localities ranging 
from Abba Island [Lat. 13° 22’ N.] to Gondokoro. It was 
not common anywhere, but three out of my fourteen 
specimens were captured on the small patch of firm ground 
in the Sadd known as Hillet al-Nuwér [Lat. 8° 13’ N.]. 
Col. Yerbury met with it at Aden [epigone], but so far 
as I know it does not occur at Port Sidan.
