vein 7, one basally in Ie below origin of vein 2, two discal and one 
marginal series; the inner discal series of six spots, a largish one in 7 
above origin of vein 7, one each in 5, 4 and 3 very close to cell, a 
pair in lc; the outer series of eight, one each in 7—2 and a pair in lc, 
parallel to margins; marginal series of six in areas 16, Ic (two) to 4; 
the base of wing and areas la and 10 with slight greyish scaling. 
Palpi, head and thorax above, and body above and below of same 
colour as wings; palpi below yellowish-white, thorax the same, 
ereyer posteriorly; Ist and 2nd pairs of legs inwardly paler, the ex- 
tremities of all tarsal joints of paler or white. Antennae black, white 
ringed, the club broader, white-banded just beyond commencement. 
Length of fore-wing, 11°5 mm. 
B.M. Type No. Rh. 071, 3, Yiafusa R., Lukanga Valley, 
N.W. Rhodesia, vin. 1915 (H. C. Dollman). 
There is only this single specimen in the Dollman Coll., 
there are, however, four other male specimens in the B.M. 
from N.E. Rhodesia, collected by 8. A. Neave. The species 
is of variable size, some being as large as S. astrigera Butler, 
to which it is closely related. It resembles the Indian 
species, S. satt de Nicé., very much in appearance.

(Plate VII, fig. 14.) 
g. Upperside, both wings: dark roughish grey-brown with darker 
shadowy markings. Fore-wing: the whole surface, but more 
particularly the base and hind margin, with faint brassy reflections, 
a minute white spot in anterior part of cell just below origin of vein 
11, a similar spot towards base of area 3 and an oblique one below 
it in area 2, three small subapical spots, subquadrate, the lower one 
very slightly beyond the others, all hyaline; a darker transverse 
band, whose inner edge shades into the ground-colour, from costa 
to inner margin, and whose outer edge runs from costa just before 
end of vein 12, just within hyaline cell spot to posterior edge of cell, 
where it is sharply angled, thence to the hyaline spot in area 2, and 
thence to inner margin, but fading away on vein 1, outwardly bor- 
dered by a narrow parallel area sprinkled with grey scales; beyond 
this a large squarish darker costal area, reaching to subapical spots 
and posteriorly but indefinitely extending into cell so as to appear 
to fuse with the transverse band towards base of vein 3, but not 
actually doing so, and also fusing in the other direction with the 
cloudy submarginal band, about areas 3 and 4; beyond subapical 
spots, and touching them, a small triangular greyish patch; margin 
greyish with a fine dark grey line before fringes, which are white
