59. Abantis paeadisea Butl. 



Tana Eiver, 3800 feet, 16th January, 1899. 

 " Taken on a flowering shrub in one of the hottest places and 

 under one of the liottest suns I have ever experienced " (R. C). 



60. Ptrgus colotes Trim., var. 



S 6 , Kangonde, 4500 feet, Kitwi, 31st December, 1898. 



"Taken when playing together, with a single stroke of the 

 net " (B. C). 



These examples are blacker above and browner below than 

 Angolan specimens, but they are spot for spot alike in other 

 respects.

Muthambi Eiver, 4500 feet, Ndya, 12th January, 1899. 



" An insect new to me ; taken in the early morning on the flags 

 growing on the river's bank " (R. C). 



Mr. Crawshay obtained this insect previously at Kikuyu and 

 Ngongo in July and August, but it is impossible for anybody to 

 remember every obscure Httle thing that has passed through his 

 hands ; it surprises me that Mr. Crawshay remembers so many.

cS . " Quite a new insect to me."' ? ? "No doubt the other of 

 the pair which I saw of which I took the one five or six days ago 

 in precisely the same spot — in a cool glade in my camp close to 

 the stream. I have meantime each day visited the same place in 

 the hope of securing the other insect, but without success until now." 



§ . " Taken in the early morning on the banks of the stream 

 about twenty yards from the spot where I took the pair " {E. C). 



Either the \vhite spots on the primaries are sometimes almost 

 obliterated on the female or the example taken on the 16th January 

 is a male ; it, however, has the white border of the secondaries almost 

 entirely restricted to the fringe; the body having been squeezed put 

 I cannot be sure that claspers are present. In my opinion it is a 

 female (as Mr. Crawshay evidently believed), but an aberrant 

 one.
