111. Corium iridoptera spec. uov. 



<?¥. 28-31 ram. Similar to In/perpln/es Front., Ann. Mii</. Naf. Flist. (8) viii. 

 p. 704, but smaller; forewiiig similarly shaped, the apc.x acmtelj' produced, hiiidwing 

 with termen more convex. .Structure about as iu hi/pci-jiihi/cs, of which the British 

 Museum now possesses, in addition to the type, a S and ? from Abcvdare 

 Mountains, British East Africa (7000 — 8500 ft., S. A. Neave). Antennal ciliation 

 in c? very short (less than one-half diameter of shaft) and even ; c? hindtibia with 

 short hair-pencil from femoro-tibial joint ; S abdomen basally clothed beneath 

 with strong brown hairs, which are not observable iu hi/perphi/es. 



Bluish white, with very strong iridescence ; discal and terminal dots small, 

 the latter in particular strikingly different from the large bold dots of ki/pe.rpkyes ; 

 antemedian and jiostmedian series of dots rather weak, the postraedian less 

 incurved posteriorly than in hi/pcrphyes and less prolonged into dashes ; costal 

 margin of forewing scarcely tinged with grey ; terminal grey line (which in 

 hiiperphjes thickens at the vein-ends) very fine and sometimes almost obsolete. 



British East Africa, the $ (type) and 2 ? ? from N. Kavirondo, Nasiri Hills, 

 4800 ft., June 14, 1911 (S. A. Neave) in coll. Brit. Mns. A pair from south and 

 east slopes of Mount Kenya, 5000—7000 ft., February 8, 1911, are probably 

 conspecitic, but measure 34-37 mm., and the $ abdomen beneath is dark-haired 

 throughout. 



11. Callipotnia angulifera spec. nov. 



c? ? , 42-45 mm. Rather larger thau multicolor Warr., Xov. Zool. vi. p. 323. 



Forewing with distal margin slightly more oblique, the wing thus appearing 

 more pointed at apex ; colour somewhat warmer brown (especially in the cj, which 

 at the same time is more sprinkled with fuscous), postmedian line nninterrnpted, 

 usually rather more pointed (in multicolor rounded) at W, from thence to posterior 

 margin forming a gentle, regular inward curve ; its colour deeper, more ferruginous, 

 accompanied distally by a fine yellowish line ; no round dark spot on posterior 



margin. Hindwing also with a continuous, similarly coloured and similarly 



accompanied postmedian, which is right-angled on R^, thence nearly straight in 

 both directions. 



Under-surface dull reddish, strongly suft'used with olive-grey, thus much more 

 sombre than in multicolor ; markings obsolete excepting a discal spot and post- 

 median line, the latter on forewing much less projecting in middle, on hindwing 

 more angled in middle, than in multicolor ; S hair-tuft coloured as in multicolor. 



Near Oetakwa River, Snow Mountains, Dutch New Guinea, up to 35(10 ft., 

 October— December 1910 (A. S. Meek). Type ((?) in coll. Rothschild. Also a 

 pair from the Upper Setekwa River, in the same district, 2000 — 3000 ft. 

 August 1910, in coll. Rothschild. 



12. Celerena remutata spec. nov. 



9,02 mm. Probably related to mutata Walk., List Lcp. Brit. Mu.^. xxxi. 

 p. 107, bnt with the dark border of both wings reduced to about the extent of that 

 of uiiti.K Warr., the oblique dark band from midcosta of forewing not joining the 

 border near tornus but separated by a small space of the ground-colour as in 

 trijlava Warr. From both mitis and trifliwa, remutatn differs in the rather leas 

 deep golden ground-colour and h'ss black borders (varied with grey as iu mut(it(i,(Aa.)
