8. Leone to ANGoLA. CAMEROON to MomBasa. 
Expanse 37-42 mm. Ground-colour sepia black with white 
markings. F.-w. with a white clavate mark nearly filling cell. 
An inner-marginal patch in la and 16 followed by a more or less 
rounded patch of two spots in 2 and 3. A subapical patch of white 
in 4, 5, 6,and 9. In 4 this patch begins only just. below nervule 5, 
so that the spot in that area is a mere streak. The discal marks 
followed by a pale line, beyond which are three delicate whitish 
submarginal lines. Fringes white between nervules. 
H.-w. with a discal white band from inner margin to area 6 about 
5 mm. wide, almost straight on both edges, nervules thereon not or 
very little blackened. Discal and marginal lines as on f.-w. 
Underside. F.-w. just noticeably white at base of costa. H.-w. 
with a white streak at base of costa followed by two more on the 
dark ground of basal area. Other marks as above, but white 
submarginal lines much more accentuated. 
This little species is apparently not very common. It 
may be distinguished from others by the streak of white 
below and adjacent to nervule 5 in f.-w.

Expanse 32-42 mm. Sepia black with white markings. F.-w. 
with white mark in cell, the edges of which are straight and the end 
pointed. An inner-marginal patch of two spots in la and 1b, 
followed by two subquadrate marks in 2 and 3, slightly separated. 
In 4a small distally placed triangular spot, two separated elongated 
spots in 5 and 6, and a small mark in 9. Beyond these discal marks 
a fine white line broken at nervules and bent deeply inwards in 1d. 
Two whitish submarginal lines interrupted only by the nervules, 
and indications of a third on the margin. All fringes white between 
nervules.
