with less crennlate proximal edge ; from the former also in the separation of central 

 band from tornns, and from the latter in the absence of subapical yellow patch.

Cartaletis Warr. 



My division of this genns into sections ( Ge«. Itis. 104, pp. 100-101) is not quite 

 correct. " Section II. — Build slender," etc., should stand at the top of p. 101 -jforheii 

 and concolor, which Warren placed in Cartaletis, certainly belong to his Leptaletis, 

 i.e. the slender section. Indeed Butler's type of cariahilis (the name-type of 

 Leptaletis) seems conspecific with concolor ; the ampliflara forms may possibly 

 represent a separate species, and so may the redder forbesi Druce, but material 

 which is accumulating seems to indicate that we are dealing with one polymorphic 

 species, as is also believed to be the case with C. libi/.^sa = monteironis = ethelinda. 



13. Cartaletis libyssa euparypha subsp. nov. 



cJ?, 60-66 mm. Slightly larger than the typical eastern race, somewhat 

 brighter fulvous (less reddish), the white spots on the thorax more strongly 

 developed, marginal band of forewing somewhat differently shaped, its proximal 

 edge being more strongly curved or even bent in the middle ; submarginal spots of 

 both wings purer, less creamy white, the subapical of forewing narrower, one or 

 two additional spots behind M-, the entire series on the hindwing larger than in 

 the type form. 



Congo, without more exact locality. Type (c?) and jiaratype in coll.

14. Paraptychodes perfulva spec. nov. 



cJ, 33 mm. Difiers from the type species (tenuis Bntl.) in having the 

 subapical blotch of the forewing fulvons, not white. The yellowish-fulvous face has a 

 larger and deeper black spot on the upper part than in any specimen of tenuis 

 before me ; the abdomen is as bright fulvous as the wings, not more whitish, as is 

 usually the case in tenuis. Wings narrow, hindwing with a strong inner-marginal 

 fold, reaching nearly to M and M-, and mixed with black on the upper surface. 

 Unfortunately I am only able to comiiare ? ? of the type species. 



Witu, British East Africa, February 28, 1912 (S. A. Neave). Type in coll. 

 Brit. Mns. 



A ? much larger (54 mm.) from Mozambique (coll. Brit. Mus. ex coll. 

 Distant) agrees in the fulvous subapical patch, but differs in that this reaches the 

 costal margin, the narrow black costal edging of the forewing failing entirely, 

 though there is a small black mark at base and anotiier at before (ine-third, and the 

 hindwing has a complete, though rather narrow, black distal border, into which 

 the ground-colour projects somewhat between the veins ; upper part of face 

 not black. 



!•"). Paraptychodes costimaculata spec. nov. 



?, 01 mm. Head fulvous, with a broad black band across upper part of face 

 and a large lilack spot in middle of vertex. Palpus blai-k, first and second joints 

 fnlvoMs beneath. Antenna thick, black, closely lamellate, without the short 

 IK'ctinations of tenuis. Thorax fulvous, broadly black mi-diodorsally and mixed 

 with Idack beneath. Abdomen fulvous abdve, whitish y( ilow beneath ; belted with 

 black at ends of seirments.
