wing upperside — a feature which appears in a lew of Mr. 

 Neave's captures from much further south. This marking, 

 which is probably ancestral, deserves special study in long 

 series from as many localities as possible. No models were 

 taken with these three examples. The hind-wings of the 

 Namirembe $ are symmetrically shorn, probably by a bird. 

 [Since the above was written a $ Concordia taken on July 31, 

 1918, in a dry stream bed at Ankwabe, Port. E. Africa (40° E., 

 13° S., about 1000 ft.), has been received (labelled " Crenid ") 

 from Capt. Carpenter. The specimen, which is beautifully 

 fresh, exhibits an unusual development of yellow over the 

 basal half of the upper surface of both wings, especially 

 marked in areas 7 and 8 of the hind — a result which may 

 be related to the outlying locality on the E. fringe of the 

 range. Still later another fresh $, also labelled " Orenis" 

 has been received from Monapo, Port. E. Africa, 30 m. W. 

 of the coast opposite Mozambique Islands (Sept. 13, 1918). 

 The basal areas are only slightly yellowish.] 



Concerning these 3 C. Concordia 1916 spoken of in the 

 last paragraph Capt. Carpenter wrote on May 20, 1917, from 

 Itigi : " I had rather suspected that the Crenidomimas was 

 a mimic. I seemed to remember a picture of it in Eltringham's 

 book [ w African Mimetic Butterflies,' pi. vi, fig. 15]. I only 

 caught three or four, I think, and it was excessively wary 

 and not at all abundant. I did not ever see a model, but 

 as the country was in the dry period it doesn't do to con- 

 clude that the model is not there. It was in very open 

 country, sometimes thorn bush, which is extremely bad for 

 butterflies generally. Didn't I get some Crenis in the Kakindu 

 forest ? But probably not the species which the Crenidomimas 

 mimics." [None of the blue species are in the Kakindu 

 collection . | 



Capt. Carpenter's account of the Lulanguru Nymphalinae 

 continues : 



" The cream of the Nymphaline population at Lulanguru 

 is provided by my pet genus Pseudacraea. [The notes on 

 Ps. poggei, Dew., and the new form carpenteri are published 

 in Proc. Ent. Soc, 1918, pp. v-xxii.|
