S. Africa {Plotz). 



On the plate is " natalica, Plotz," but he published the

 before going to press ; on the plate is written in pencil 

 « = fiara."

Angola {Plotz). 



Butler's type came from Lower Nyika ; it is much like 

 Plotz's figure, and if not identical, it is certainly a race of 

 the same species.

 Sambawa and West Java ; Plotz figured it under the name 

 firdiLsi, but did not describe it, having discovered it was
