Hab. Nyassa (Thelwall). 
This and the last described are very different from any 
other species, but singularly like each other in marking,

Hesperia vermiculata. 
Alis supra fuscis: anticis punctis quinque hyalinis punctoque 
opaco flavis, puncto in cellula punctisque in fascia longitudinali

Upperside dark brown. Anterior wing with six spots, five 
of which are transparent and slightly tinted with yellow: one 
in the cell, oblong; five in a longitudinal central band, the

broadly yellow. The abdomen dark brown, banded with 
yellow.

Posterior wing yellow, spotted with black and white; the 
base and costal margin dark brown, with the nervures yellow; 
two white spots below the middle of the costal margin, a 
white spot near the inner margin; a transverse series of black
