white bar of fore-wing although the bhick ground-colour 

 of the apex is almost absent. Compare Figs. 4-7 and 

 Fig. 3, Plate XIV. 

 Fig. 3rt. A. cnccdoit, form daim, under-side (^, Oct., Nov. 1900. 

 Collected in the same locality as Fig. 1«, by W. Doherty. 

 The under-side shows the same faint traces of the sub- 

 apical white bar as the upper-side. Compare Fig. 3. 



4. A. encedon, form daim ^, Jan. 28, 1900. Captured by 



Mr. and Mrs. S. L. Hinde at Kitui, British East Africa 

 (about 4000 feet). The sub-apical bar is rather more 

 distinct and the surrounding ground-colour rather darker 

 than in Fig. 3. 



5. A. encedon, intermediate between form daira and encedon 



S, May 18, 1900. Captured by Mrs. Leakey at Ndeje, 

 Biilemezi, near Mongo, Uganda. In this interesting 

 vai'iety the sub-apical bar is very clearly defined by the 

 greatly increased darkness of the adjacent gnnind-colour, 

 and thus becomes very distinct, altliough it is itself of a 

 darker shade than any of the specimens represented in 

 the three previous figures (3, 3a, and 4). 



6. A. encedon tending towards the form daira in the darkness 



of the sub-apical bar, and towards the form alcippbia in 

 the whiteness of tlie inner part of the hind-wing ^, May 

 19, 1900. Captured by Mrs. Leakey in the locality 

 described in Fig. 5. The apex of the fore-wing would be 

 that of typical encedon but for the darkness of the bar. 

 It is noteworthy that the costal spot of the bar is much 

 lighter than any of the other four component spots. On 

 the under-side of this specimen the bar is much lighter, 

 although not so white as in typical encedon. 



7. A. encedon, iovm alcippina $, Feb. 27 to March 2, 1900. 



Captured by Mrs. Leakey in tlie locality described in 

 Fig. 5. With white, conspicuous hind-wings this variety 

 closely resembles the form (dclppus of Limnas chrysippns. 

 The fore-wings are as in typical encedcriu except that they 

 are somewhat darker than \isual, suggesting, in the inner 

 contour of the black patch, an approach towards the form 

 lycia.
