ginal border, in the fore wings ; and entire want of the 

 broad basal, and especially costal, fuscous clouding, in the 

 hindwings : but on the underside is very similar, differing 

 chiefly in the discal row of spots in the fore wings being 

 much more regular. 



- The above description is made from the only example 

 that I have seen, which w^as taken by Mr. Walter Morant 

 near the Mooi River, in Natal, on the 15th September, 

 1870. 



Hab. — Natal. — In the collection of W. Morant. 



Zeritis Barklyi, n. sp. (PI. II. figs. 8 and 9.) 



Exp. (^) 1 in. 4— 4f lin. ; ( 2 ) 1 in. 4— 5^ lin. 



$. Pale silvery-grey, spotless. Foretving : an ill-de- 

 fined, dull-fuscous, macular or sub-macular, hind-marginal 

 border, forming rather a broad apical mark, but narrowing 

 lower down, and usually more or less interrupted by the 

 ground-colour or nervules. Hindwing : an elongate, ill- 

 defined, apical, fliscous marking, lying between 1st sub- 

 costal and radial nervules. Underside. — Hindioing and 

 narroio border of foregoing ashy broivnish-grey ; rest of 

 forewing orange-red. Foreioing : grey border, widening 

 slightly just before and at apex ; a dark fuscous dash at 

 base inferiorly edging median nervure ; black spots in 

 number and arrangement like those of Z. Thyra, Linn., 

 and allies, viz. 3 white-centred cellular spots, a transverse, 

 discal, irregular row of 6, of Avhich the 4 upper are white- 

 dotted interiorly, and two parallel sub-marginal rows of 7 

 each, of which the outer row is composed of very small 

 spots indistinctly marking the inner edge of the hind-mar- 

 ginal grey border. Hindwing: the following indistinct, 

 hardly sub-metallic, fuscous-edged, greyish spots, viz. 3 

 cellular (basal one minute, middle one near third), 2 supra- 

 cellular (wide apart), 2 infra-cellular, and 6 sub-confluent, 

 forming an irregular discal row ; a sub-marginal roAV of 7 

 thin fliscous lunules, and a marginal one of 7 fuscous sub- 

 lunulate spots (of which the three lower are weU marked); 

 between the tAvo rows one of pale orange lunular marks 

 (the 3 lower of which are usually w^ell marked); on each 

 side of the irregular discal row of spots several more or 

 less indistinct pale orange marks. Cilia fuscous, varied 

 between nervules with greyish-white. 



$. Not so glossy ; forewing with a sub-apical, pale 

 orange-yellow, rounded patch. Foreioing: patch lies
