NYMPH ALIN^. 253 



On the upper side of the fore-wing Boisduvali in both sexes wants 

 altogether (or occasionally presents a slight trace of) the large isolated 

 black spot of the discal row which lies between the first median nervule 

 and the submedian nervure. 



This species is abundant at Port Natal, where I met with it in June and 

 August 1865, and again from January to April 1867, A tree in the Botanic 

 Gardens near D'Urban was shown to me by the superintendent, a great number 

 of the leaves of which was white with the empty pupa-skins, and I found one 

 pupa from which the imago was on the point of emerging. This pupa was 

 slender and subangulated, but, as the imago was completely developed, I could 

 not record the proper colour or marking. 



C Boisduvali appears to range farther southward than Q. Ncdalensis, a female 

 specimen having been sent to the South-African Museum which was taken by Mr. 

 Alexander Bowker at Pembroke, near King William's Town, in March 1873. 



Colonel Bowker has twice sent me the paired sexes ; they were taken in 

 August 1878 and March 1879. I ^^^^ previously taken a pair at D'Urban, 

 Natal, in April 1867.

^ Dull ochreotcs-hrown ; the fore-wing with a darker sjxtce and some 

 pale dull yellow-ochreous marks. Fore-wing : a fuscous-brown space 

 near costa, about and beyond middle, forming an ill-defined cloud, 

 commencing immediately beyond extremity of discoidal cell ; this cloud 

 encloses a yellow-ochreous spot a little beyond cell, and is bounded 

 externally towards apex by an elongate paler spot close to costa, and 

 between third and second median nervules by a smaller similar spot 

 ill-defined outwardly; towards hind-margin the ground colour is paler 

 and very faintly tinged with yellow-ochreous (except near apex) ; a 

 submarginal row of very indistinct inter-nervular small fuscous-brown 

 spots. Hind-ioing : very faintly tinged with yellow-ochreous about 

 apex, near which are two faint fuscous-brown dots. Under side. — 

 Hind-ioing and apical area of fore-vying crea7n-colo2cr, inclining to 

 argillaceous. Fore-wing : yellow-ochreous, becoming much paler beyond 

 middle ; fuscous-brown cloud very conspicuous, and the ochreous spot 

 it encloses larger and better defined than on upper side ; the two outer 

 spots, on the contraiy, much less distinct, and quite merged in the 

 ground-colour; costa from base narrowly bordered with dull cream-
