XXXVIII. — Descriptions of some East- African Lyceenidae. 

 By Hamilton H. Deuce, F.Z.S., F.E.S. 



Colonel Swinhoe has lately received a collection of Lepi- 

 doptera from Dar-es-Salaam, and has placed the Lyceenidte in 

 my hands for examination. Amongst them are specimens of 

 Chrysorychia amanga, Westvv., and also of C. punicea, Grose 

 Smith, with which the recently described G. cruenta, Trimen 

 (P. Z. S. 1894, p. 55, pi. vi. fig. 13, <y), is identical. This 

 figure is a very bad one, and the conspicuous white marking 

 which is really on the fore wing below the first median nervule 

 is here shown on the costal margin of the hind wing. 



There is also a male Hypolycosna Buxtoni, Hew., which is 

 much larger and deeper in colour on the upperside than the 

 typical form. 



Col. Swinhoe has kindly presented us with the types.
