An example sent from Koro-Koro is rather larger than 

 usual, expanding 11 lin., and the ground-colour of the 

 underside is rather darker, and not so ochreous. A 

 similar specimen, of even larger size (exp. 1 in>), was 

 taken by Mr. W. Morant, in the Orange Free State, at a 

 spot named " Doom Kopje." This latter individual pre- 

 sented an additional white dot just beyond the lowest 

 spot of the discal row in the fore- wings. 



Pyrgus Mafa, n. sp. (PL VI. fig. 12.) 



Allied to P. Vindex, Cram. (Pap. Exot. iv. 122, pi. 

 cccliii. f. G. H) . 



Exp. lUlin.— 1 in. 



BlacJc, spotted v-ith tohite : the spots in ntimber and 

 arrangement quite as in P. Vindex, but mostly smaller, and 

 very sharply defined. 



Underside. ITlnd-wing : the sub-basal and central 

 white stripes rather narrow, not oJdique, interrupted more 

 or less marliedly in two places; of the separate spots or 

 portions of the stripes, the largest is the middle one of 

 the central stripe, which is denticulate hath inwardly and 

 outwardly, but much more strongly outwardly; a snh- 

 marginal roiv oj distinct white dots, continuous of that in 

 the fore-wing ; the inner-marginal fold widely white. 



The characters italicised above seora to be constant, 

 and I have therefore treated the race as distinct. Mr. 

 Bowker found this Pyrgus not uncommon, most of his 

 .specimens having been captured at IMascru, and one near 

 Koro-Koro. An example in Mr. W. ^Nforant's collection 

 was found at Potchefstroon, Trans- Vaal.
