410 Mr. H. Eltringham on 
I append notes on certain forms of Acraea omitted from 
my monograph, or described since its publication. 
Acraea polychroma, Rebel, Ann. d. K. K. Naturhist, 
Hofmus, Wien, p. 410, pl. 14, f. 3 (1910). 
There seems nothing in the figure or description of this 
form to distinguish it from A. amicitiae, Heron. The 
locality is, however, different, viz. N.W. shore of L. 
Tanganyika, 2,000 m. 
We must, I think, regard polychroma as a synonym of 
amicivae. 
A. pullula, Griinberg, Deut. Zent. Af. Exp., p. 516, - 
pl ads ie7 (911). 
As the publication referred to is difficult to obtain, 
I give herewith a translation of Griinberg’s description. 
Allied to A. vinidia, Hew. Colouring as in var. tenella, Rogenh. 
The yellow markings of less extent, the wings shorter and more 
broadly rounded. 
jg. Upperside, ground-colour blackish-brown, distal half of fore- 
wing uniformly dark, without pale subapical band. Inner marginal 
spot of fore-wing on middle of margin 5.5 mm. in width, of the same 
width in area 1b, extending over the basal part of area 2, obscured 
in the cell and barely indicated in the angle of area 3. 
H.-w. very like that of vinidia var. tenella, the yellow basal part 
somewhat less developed, the blackish-brown border broader, with 
small, barely indicated reddish-yellow marginal spots. The black 
basal spots not perceptible on the upperside. Underside more 
heavily and extensively darkened than in vinidia. Both wings 
with acute angled yellow marginal spots, subapical band in fore- 
wing merely vestigial, hind-marginal patch much as on upperside. 
The pale basal area of h.-w. very much reduced by the black mark- 
ings, the black basal spots of the costa and cell fused together, 
beyond the cell large and very black, the distal ones extended into 
long streaks. The yellowish-red markings distinct only in area 
Ic. On the costa before the precostal nervure a well-defined 
yellowish-red spot. 
Expanse 33 mm. 
Ruanda, Mohasi Lake, vii.’07. 1 3. 
The figure accompanying the description is a very poor 
one, but I should be much surprised if this form is not 
ultimately found to be a mere aberration of A. acerata.
