African Species of the Genus Neplis. 555 
Underside pale dull ochreous, rather darker over basal half of 
f.-w. Paler marks as above, but h.-w. discal band reaches prac- 
tically to base and is ill defined distally except in very dark 
specimens. Nervules and internervular rays well marked. 
ochracea f. ochreata. 
Differs from the type form in having the yellow bands narrower 
and the f.-w. discal band is interrupted in 1b. I have examined an 
example of the armature of Lord Rothschild’s parvimacula and it 
is the same as that of ochracea. I cannot discover any difference 
in outward characters between forms ochreata and parvimacula, 
and both are described from the same locality. 
f. milbraedi. 
Differs from the type form in having the yellow bands rather 
broader and the costal spot wanting in f.-w. This latter point is 
no real distinction, as otherwise typical forms are without the spot. 
The resemblance of ochracea to exaleuca in all but colour 
is very remarkable, and it is tempting to regard them as 
forms of the same species; nevertheless, although the 
armature of exaleuca is variable, I have not found an example 
approaching agreement with that of exaleuca.

.Expanse 45-50 mm. Ground-colour dark sepia with white

to this species if we substitute white for ochreous patches, and add 
that there is a break in the inner-marginal patch in area 1b. The
