Species of Lycenide from West Africa. 825 
Acrea tgola leonina, subsp. n. 
3. Upperside: primaries hyaline, very slightly tawny (yet 
hyaline) over the cell and inner marginal area, beyond the 
middle of the cell a very slight trace of a darkish spot; apex 
and posterior margin broadly dusky. Secondaries reddish, 
with decidedly broad blackish margin ; all the veins dusted 
with black nearly up to the cell, and between each of the 
veins a dark longitudinal dash of blackish nearly equal in 
length to the dusting just mentioned; a row of four black 
basal spots below each other, followed by a similar row of 
five spots, the one in the cell being shifted slightly base- 
wards, beyond which is a row of three spots slightly curved 
and rather larger, beginning with one in the cell and reaching 
to the internal vein; beyond this is a straight row of three 
spots, the first on the costa, the second at the upper extre- 
mity of the cell, and the third below the cell in the angle 
formed by the first median vein; these spots are plainer on 
the underside than on the upperside. Beneath, the primaries 
are very shining; the apex and the posterior margin are 
yellowish, the short dusky dash between the veins being 
much plainer than on the upperside: secondaries much paler 
and shining, the dusky veins and dashes showing through 
more distinctly. 
?. Upperside: primaries hyaline, but altogether duskier 
than in the male: secondaries as in the male, but duskier ; 
spots as in the male, but with the addition of one very small 
spot immediately below the second one of the last row. 
Underside: the difference in both wings is just the same as 
in the male. 
Exp. alar., ¢ 2, 56 millim. 
This subspecies was taken in November, January, and 
again in June. It differs from zgo/a in that the whole of the 
primaries are hyaline, with barely a trace of the tawny red. 
On the secondaries the arrangement of the spots differs, and 
igola lacks the broad dusting of the veins. 
Pentila septistrigata, sp. n. 
3. Upperside: both wings white. Primaries with a broad 
dark costa and a very broad, dark, irregular apical area ex- 
tending from just in front of the cell on the costa to rather 
lower than the third median vein on the posterior margin, 
with no spots or other marks. Secondaries with a distinct 
fine dark margin from the anal angle to the third median vein 
on the posterior margin ; otherwise without any marks, except
