6 Colonel C. Swinhoe's Deso^iptions of Neiv Species of 



The underside of the hind-wing is very distinctive; the 

 upperside is well figured by Semper. 



Tagiades menaka. 



Pterygospidea menaka, Moore, P. Z. S., 1865, p. 778 (nee 



Plotz). 

 Tagiades vtUticrna, Plotz, J. B. Nass. Ver., xxxvii, p. 47 



(1884), pi. 1093. 



Calcutta (Flotz). 



These are undoubtedly identical. Plotz misidentified 

 menaka ; he figures atticus as menaka. 



Tagiades louisa. PI. I, fig. 5. 



Tagiades louisa, Swinhoe, Ann. Mag. N. H. (7), xx, p. 432 

 (1907). 



Rossel Island, types in B. M, 



Tagiades brigidella. 



Antigomis brigidella, Plotz, Stett. ent. Zeit., xlvii, p. Ill 



(1886), pi. 1563. 

 Sarangcsa aurimao^go, Holland, P. Z. S., 1896, p. 10, pi. iv, 



f. 8. 



Njara {Plotz), type in coll. Erhardt. 



Dr. Holland seems to have overlooked this species of 

 Plotz, it is not referred to by him; his types came from 

 Gaboon and Sierra Leone ; Professor Erhardt has pencilled 

 in the plate " aurimargo, Holland," and I think there can 

 be no doubt about it. 



SEMALEA, Holland, P. Z. S., 1896, p. 64, type pulvina, 

 Plotz. 



Semalea pulvina. 



Hesperia pulvina, Plotz, Stett. ent. Zeit., xl, p. 353 (1879).

f. 14. 

 Cohalus carlo, Mab., Bull, Soc. Ent. Fr. (6), ix, p. clxix 



(1889). 

 Hesperia tenehricosa, Plotz, MS., pi. 264. 



Ahmi {Plotz). 



Plotz evidently changed the name of his species after 

 figuring it; there is no figure oi pulvina, and on the plate 

 representing tenehricosa is pencilled "= pulvma."
