256 Mr. N. Pritey’s Notes on 
at base of area 3 and a large oval one below it in area 2, three sub- 
apical spots in usual position, the lowest beyond the others; two 
round dots in 16 basally, a broad transverse band, broken up on 
costa, darkest against the hyaline spots in cell, broader but lighter 
thence to inner margin, a large squarish patch not reaching costa, 
bounded by the three subapical hyaline spots and reaching similar 
spot in area 3, two rather indefinite spots below hyaline spot in area 2, 
a straight cloudy band from apex to inner margin near outer angle, 
broadest below vein 4, and the whole of areas la and 12 all darker 
than the ground-colour; the marginal area lighter and shinier as 
to ground-colour. Hind-wing: some obscure darker markings 
basally hardly separated from a sub-basal transverse obscure band 
of darker spots; this latter followed by a similar broad discal band 
close to which, on its outer edge, there appears to run a series of 
black dots; a similar submarginal band of equal width except 
anteriorly, where it extends to the margin, equally ill-defined; 
marginal area rather lighter. 
Underside, fore-wing : as above, but lighter; of the dark markings 
the most conspicuous are the distal pair of spots in 1b and that part 
of the submarginal band which is represented in areas 4 and 5 by 
two triangular spots, the other dark markings very obscure; imme- 
diately beyond and touching the hyaline cell spots is a lighter area 
with a faint reddish tinge. Hind-wing : much lighter than above, 
especially posteriorly; darker markings are: three indistinct square 
spots in area 7, a transverse line near cell end, one at cell end and one 
centrally in area 6, from which a wavy interrupted dark line, broadest 
in 4 and 5, extends to vein 1b; an oblong lighter, almost reddish patch 
from just within cell to the dark markings in area 4 and 5. 
Palpi, head, thorax and abdomen above of same colour as wings. 
Palpi below grey, thorax, body and 2nd and 3rd pairs of legs 
matching the wing coloration; first pair of legs externally white. 
Antennae grey, white ringed, the club above black, below grey 
centrally, otherwise white. 
9. Exactly like the male. 
Length of fore-wing, 3 and 9 15°5 mm. 
B.M. Types No. Rh. 074, 3, and 075, 9, Solwezi, bred

Of this species Dollman says: “‘ Never caught on the 
wing. The larvae, which were found in numbers on a 
small herbaceous plant near the Solwezi River, are brown, 
with the head nearly black. They live in the usual Hes- 
perid fashion in a spun-up leaf or leaves.” 
The species was also obtained on the Lualaba River and
