antemedian line ; siibbasal markings consisting of a small 

 triangular red mark on costa, a black dot in cell, and an 

 oblique, red, black-mixeJ dash behind SM" ; lines red ; 

 antemedian rather thick, straight, from before one-third 

 costa (where it is proximally edged by a few black scales) 

 to beyond one-third hind margin ; postmedian arising on 

 costa about midway between subbasal mark and apex, 

 strongly oblique outwards to M', here sharply bent, then 

 straight to hind margin near tornus ; a large anterior and 

 a minute posterior black cell-dot ; a red costal mark shortly 

 beyond the postmedian line, connected with it by a faint 

 reddish mark (really the reddened tips of the costal fringe) ; 

 terminal line orange, thickening at apex. 



Hind tving red-orange or orange-red, above with costal 

 margin pale. 



Fore wing beneath indefinitely mottled with ochreous and 

 orange, posteriorly whitish ; base of costa and lobes redder ; 

 costal edge whitish in front of the lobes ; antemedian and 

 postmedian lines present, but indistinct. 



Mindanao, Philippines (/. J. Mounsey), 2 (J c? . Probably 

 near axiologa, Swinh. ; may be placed as No. 648 c in the 

 subfamily. 



2. ChioiKsma brunneistriga^ sp. n. 



? . — 19 mm. 



Closely similar to rubristi'iga, Holl., the red markings 

 light ochreous-brown. 



Fore wing with antemedian line strongly bisinuate ; 

 postmedian rather thick, rather strongly angulated outwards 

 in middle; three black-brown subapical spots, the middle 

 one (between 11^ and R") well developed, the anterior and 

 posterior ones minute. 



Fort Crampel, French Congo. 



Possibly a form of ruhristriga, Holl., as the colour is 

 known to be somewhat variable, and specimens of apparently 

 that species from Sierra Leone and Gold Coast in coll. 

 British Museum show faint traces of a brownish subterminal 

 spot between R^ and K^, but the antemedian line seems too 

 different, and the Cameroon series in coll. Joicey shows 

 no transitions towards the new form. 



3. Chiouisma additicia, sp. n. 

 ? . — 22 mm. 



Closely similar to basisticta, Hmpsn., slightly broader- 

 winged. Head white. 



Fore wing with the markings yellowish ochraceous
