Lepidoptera from Southern Africa. 417 



Family 43. Ennomidse. 

 Genus 95. Hypeeythea, Gue'ne'e. 



124. Hyperythra leucicolor } n. sp. 

 Hyperythra limbolaria (part.), Walker. 



£ . Bright saffron-yellow, more or less speckled with brown, 

 crossed by two diffused pule reddish grey bands or lines, the 

 external one internally bisinuate on both wings, bounded ex- 

 ternally near outer angle of primaries by one dusky spot, and 

 near apex of secondaries by two. Wings below paler, the inner 

 band only represented by a reddish spot on interno-median 

 interspace, the outer one by a continuous chain-like discal 

 series of rosy spots with carmine margins ; a black dot on 

 discocellulars. Expanse of wings 1 inch 1 to 3 lines. 



$ . Not unlike GueneVs figure of H. limbolaria, but with 

 only three (almost equidistant) lines across the primaries and 

 two across the secondaries, the inner band below much inter- 

 rupted. Expanse of wings 1 inch 7 to 9 lines. 



Natal (one male). 



We received both sexes of this species in a collection sent 

 to England last year by Mr. J. V. Gooch. It was at the 

 time supposed to be the Javan H. lutea of Cramer (H. limbo- 

 laria, Guenee) ; but it is clearly quite distinct. 



Genus 96. Cabeeodes, Gue'ne'e. 



125. Caberodes interpellans, n. sp. 



<$ . Wings greyish brown, slightly shot with a rosy tint ; 

 markings precisely like Ellojria flagitiaria — that is, a curved 

 subbasal and a waved discal dark brown line, with a black 

 spot on discocellulars in primaries, and a subangulated discal 

 line and black dot in secondaries ; antennas rather unusually 

 wide towards the base, and thorax very robust. Expanse of 

 wings 1 inch 7 lines. 



Natal. 



Family 44. Boarmiidae. 



Genus 97. Gnophos, Treitschke. 



126. Gnophos umbratilis, n. sp. 



J . Wings greyish brown in appearance, but really yellowish 

 testaceous, densely mottled with blackish brown, crossed in the 

 middle by two ill-defined dusky lines ; black discocellular 

 dots ; a small elongate black dot at centre of second median 

 interspace of secondaries : wings below much less mottled
