3. P. I II /(ilia, Gr. Smith, the form peculiar to Mombasa and 

 the immediate neighbourhood. 



4. P. gerda, Gr. Smith and Kirby, a form closely allied to 

 the preceding, but separable, and inhabiting an adjacent 

 region of British East Africa. 



5. P. venata, Butl., originally described from the White 

 Nile, and found also in Abyssinia, Southern Kordofan and 

 the Southern Sudan. 



The type of P. doxo, Godt., belongs to this group, but being 

 a female of unknown locality and in bad condition, it cannot 

 be determined with certainty. The forms above mentioned 

 are probably best regarded as geographical subspecies ; at 

 present they appear to be distinct, but further information 

 may show that they intergrade in certain localities.
