142 Mr. A. G. Butler on new Species of Agaristide. 
a black anal tuft: primaries below black; a white subcosta 
litura at base; a large ochreous spot near base of cell; a 
broad internal testaceous streak; an irregular transverse 
ochreous band; subanal spot and subapical spot as above: 
secondaries as above: body black, spotted with white; legs 
black, varied with orange, and dotted with white. 
Expanse of wings 3 inches 2 lines. 
3, Zoolu (Angas); 2, Natal (Gueinzius). Type, B.M. 
The above is the L. euphemia, var. 6, of Walker’s ‘ List.’ 
It and the two following may be at once distinguished from 
E. euphemia (irrespective of other characters) by the white- 
spotted prothorax; in HL. euphemia the prothorax is orange, 
longitudinally streaked with black. 
9. Husemia africana, n. sp. 
Nearly allied to H. euphemia, from which it may be at 
once distinguished by the single large central ochreous spot 
on basal area, extending from the costal to the submedian 
nervure, and the white-spotted prothorax. 
Expanse of wings 2 inches 8 lines. 
$, D’Urban, Feb. 1867 (Zrimen); 3 2 , Natal (Guetnzius 
& Gooch); g, Zoolu (Angas). Type, B.M. 
The example from Zoolu is rather smaller than the Natal 
form. This species is the HL. euphemia, var. y, of Walker’s 
‘List,’ and is the southern representative of that species, 
which we have from the coast of Guinea, Ashanti, and the 
White Nile. 
10. Husemia ochracea, n. sp. 
9. Allied to EL. euphemia, but smaller; the wings shorter ; 
the subbasal spots of primaries broader ; the subapical elon- 
gated spot rather nearer to the apex, and not notched internally ; 
the secondaries bright ochreous, with the usual black border ; 
the prothorax dotted with white. 
Expanse of wings 2 inches 2 lines. 
Congo (Richardson). ‘Type, B.M. 
I have seen the male of this species in Mr. Stretch’s col- 
lection ; it is the L. ewphemia, var. e, of Walker’s § List.’ 
11. Husemia tricolor, n. sp- 
?. Allied to H. hesperoides: wings above dark brown; 
primaries with a central, oblique, creamy-whitish band, taper- 
ing from the subcostal nervure near end of cell to near the 
external angle, diffused internally from the median nervure
