( 342 ) 



triangular, at least as large as in eurijnomc ; eight yellowish snbmarginal spots. 



Hindwing : pale area extended from costal to abdomiual margin and from near 

 base to round postdiscal spots, veins within the area black at least distally ; a 

 complete series of yellowish snbmarginal spots, which are somewhat larger than in 

 euri/nomc ; and an also complete row of white marginal dots ; white fringe-spots 

 present on both wings. 



Underside : markings as large as above or larger ; the dark costal and distal 

 jiarts of the forewing and the distal area of the hindwing shaded over with grey, 

 only the basal patch of the forewing remaining deep black ; ochraceons basal 

 markings similar to those of S, paler ; snbmarginal spots of hindwing white. 



cJ ? . Neuration : essentially as in cur>/nomc. 



Early stages not known. 



Ilab. West Africa : Cameroons to Angola and the Arnwimi Forest. 



In the Tring Museum, 6 c?(?, 2 ¥ ? from: Bipindi, Cameroons (Zenker); 

 Carnotville ; Lukolele, Congo ; Cubal R., Angola, April 1899 (Penrice) ; 4 days' 

 march from Fort Beni, Congo Free State, 8. v. 1899 (Dr. Ansorge). 



7. Euxanthe ansorgei spec, no v. 



c?. Similar to E. ci-osslei/i, but the markings in the middle of the wings 

 much reduced. Most likely only the eastern subspecies of crosslci/i. 



Wings, upperside. Forewing less stumpy than in crossle^i ; basal area 



obscure chestnut, a pale basal costal streak creamy buff and ochraceons ; anterior 

 cell-spot minute, posterior one ovate, much narrower than the interspace between it 

 and median patch M' — M- ; median streaks SC^-'' — M' thin and much shorter than 

 in crossle>/i, streak R^ — M' midway between cell and snbmarginal dot, streaks 

 M' — SM^ also reduced, being more like those of eurinome than those of crossleyi, 

 streak along internal margin shorter than in crosslei/i and longer than in eimnome ; 

 four minute postdiscal dots ; white snbmarginal spots as in crossleifi. — Hindwing : 

 median area e.Ktended to near base as in crosslet/i, and of the same pale yellowish 

 green colour, a streak behind cell and one each in front of and behind SM° white ; 

 the median area smaller than in crossleyi, the streaks being shorter, not extending 

 beyond the bent of R^ streak R^ — M^ very small. 



Underside representing similar differences from crossleyi as upper. Bases of 

 wings brighter ochraceons ; greenish cell-patch of forewing occupying less tlian 

 one-third of the cell ; distal areas of both wings paler than in crossleyi. 



Neuration : as in crossleyi, but SC^ of forewing free.* 



? . Not known. 



Ilah. Patsho, Nandi country, Uganda Protectorate. One S caught by Dr. 

 Ansorge on February 22nd, 1899. 



This species stands in a somewhat similar relation to crossleyi as does wakefieldi 

 to eurinome* 



• We have lately examined two specimens from the Hope Department, University Museum, Oxford. 

 These specimens liave the spots slightly less reduced and SC- of the forewing anastomosed to C. We 

 have no longer any doubt that the form described above is a subspecies of crossleyi. Its name is 

 E. nvssleyi angtrgei.
