(2) H.w. spots confluent in a large black basal patch 



orina orineta (264) 

 H.-w. spots though obscured by basal suffusion are obviously 

 not conjluent .... . parrhasia /. oppidia (278) 

 (y) F.-w. with elongated red patches between the nervules orina(263) 

 F.-w. with orange spots between the nervules . insularis (345) 

 (z) F.-w. fully and thickly scaled with the exception of three small 

 quadrate well-defined transparent or semitransparent sub- 

 apical spots in 6, 5, and 4 . . . safie antinorii (316) 



F.-w. not so (1) 



(1) On the nnderside the base and inarcjin of h.-w. are dark brovni 

 enclosing between them a narroio ochreous central band 



peneleos pelasgius (269) 

 H.-vj. beneath not so marked ...... (d') 



(z) The transparent areas are confined to three or four very small, 

 very sharply defined subapical spots in f.-w. . . . (a') 



Transparent areas not so confined or at least considerably 

 elongated ......... (d') 



(a') F.-w. ground-colour reddish brown . . amicitiae (317) 



F.-w. ground-colour brown black ..... (6') 



(b') H.-w. with a red band . . . peneleos pelasgius (269) 



H.-w. without a red band ....... (c') 



(c') H.-w. with a fairly broad yellow central band safie safie (315) 

 H.-w. with a very narrow, or no band . . safie antinorii (316) 

 {d') Large forms with an expanse of Aving of about 60-90 mm. 

 F.-w. for the most part transparent but having two irregu- 

 larly outlined transverse oblique dark bands, one from costa 

 at a point just beyond middle of cell, to the hind angle. 

 The second just beyond cell. (These bands may be rather 

 faint.) Apex and hind margin usually somewhat darkened (e') 

 Expanse of wing usually much less. In any case pattern not 



as above (g') 



(e') H.-w. fully scaled all over vesperalis (48) 



H.-w. partly transparent (/') 



(/') F.-w. dark bars and h.-w. basal scaling heavily developed 



pentapolis ejMica (46) 

 F.-w. dark bars and usually h.-w. basal scaling lightly developed 



pentapolis pentapolis (46) 

 {g') H.-w. with a quite well-defined transparent or semitransparent 

 marginal border more or less dusted with black scales . {h') 

 H.-w. with margin at least as fully scaled as rest of wing . (i') 

 (A') H.-w. border broad and the blackish dusting quite evenly dis- 

 tributed, (Tarsal claws equal) . . quirinalis (308) 

 H.-w. border narrow, the blackish dusting concentrated towards 

 anal angle. (Tarsal claws unequal) . . orestia (305)
