NYMPH ALIDJE HARMA. 



HARMA THEODOTA. 3, 4. 



Upperside. Male rufous orange ; both wings crossed before the middle by a 

 band of paler colour : both wings with the outer margin brown (narrow on the 

 anterior wing, broad on the posterior) ; both with a submarginal band of lunular 

 black spots. 



Underside rufous brown ; both wings with several irregular spots of white 

 (some tinted with yellow) from the base to the middle : both with three bands of 

 conical spots between the middle and the outer margin ; anterior wing with some 

 irregular spots in the eel], as in the genus Adolias. 



Expan. 3^ - in. Hab. Calibar. 



In the Collection of W. C. Hewitson. 



Mr. Doubleday put the species of this genus with Adolias, and, except in general appearance- 

 there is very little to divide them and the neighbouring genera from it, or from each other. Eury- 

 pheue and Harma come very near together, as is shown by the similarity of the undersides of Harma 

 Theodota and Euryphene Lesbonax ; Euryphene is very close to Aterica, and Euryphene Soemis bears 

 a near resemblance to two of the species of Eomalasosoma, which I have figured, to R. Luperca and 

 R. Losinga. 



The butterfly figured by Herrich Schaeffer in his Aussereuropaischer Schmetterlinge, Fig. 8, 

 belongs to this genus.
