liis conclusion tliat both numbers were affixed to specimens of 

 the same species. 



Inner marginal spots small. Upper surface rectangulated 

 band very sharply definedj and more distinct on its inner 

 border, than is the similar marking on the under surface of 

 the wing. This specimen is placed under A. 9 of West- 

 wood's list (see p. 18), characterized by the band above 

 described.

Opposite "477" Burchell wrote (" 353 "), thus showing 

 that he considered both numbers to be affixed to specimens 

 of the same species. 



Lower inner marginal spot very small : upper represented 

 by a few scattered scales. Very faint indications of the upper 

 surface rectangulated band appear between the second sub- 

 costal nervule and the radial nervure, between the latter and 

 the third median nervule, and between the second and tirst 

 median nervules.

This specimen bears a female body, and as regards size 

 approaches the normal A. thalta female, but its general 

 aspect is so male-like in the opacity of the wings that it 

 seems probable that we are dealing with an unusually large 

 male to which a female body has accidentally been attached. 

 It may here be mentioned that in determining the sex of the 

 Burchell material, we have been obliged to resort to such 

 superficial characters as the opacity of the wings or the size 

 of the specimen, when the abdomen and fore legs are wanting. 



Lower inner marginal spot very small : upper represented 

 by a single scale on each fore wing. Upper surface rectan- 

 gulated band fairly well marked at its origin, but just before 

 reaching the first subcostal nervule it becomes much fainter 

 and terminates at the second subcostal.

It is to be noted that of these two males, taken on the same 

 day, 1448 is the normal form of the species, while 1449 is a 

 round-winged individual similar to 1443. 



Both spots distinct in 1448; and upper surface rectangu- 

 lated band of this specimen very faintly indicated, as in 

 1444. The other S (1449) agrees with 1443 in all essential 

 respects.
