Antananarivo (Kingdon). 



The characteristic projecting patch of scales from the inner 

 margin of the primaries seems to satisfactorily establish the 

 generic position of this species. 



We have received from Antananarivo what I believe to be 

 the male of my Gogane ochrea. If so, the species would be 

 better placed in Chcerotriche, as the form of the male and its 

 broadly pectinate antenna? agree with that genus rather than 

 with Gogane : the males of Gogane correspond in form and 

 antennae with the females of Chcerotriche ; the females of 

 Gogane have the antennas as in the males. The male of G. 

 ochrea may be characterized thus : — Smaller than the female, 

 with shorter wings, the primaries decidedly more orange in 

 colour ; an abbreviated longitudinal black dash and two dots 

 just above the origin of the median branches, and a black- 

 edged rounded grey spot near the middle of the inner margin ; 

 a few black scales on the internal fringe below this spot.
