These examples are larger and Ijluer than those from Natal ; 

 the black on the ])riniaries is also expanded, reducing the size 

 of the white markings. On the under surface the ground-

This is the first male example I have seen ; on the upper 

 surface it is intermediate between S. nataletisi's and S. 7)yassa' : 

 on the under surface the primaries resemble those of S. nyassa;, 

 bul on the secondaries the central band is united at an angle 

 with that running from the abdominal margin ; the subapical 

 transverse band is abruj)tly widened on first subcostal branch, 

 and runs nearly parallel to the central band, and the outer
