Lasiocampid.e. 



204. Heteeopacha sp. 



A single female practically agreeing in structure and general 

 appearance with the Texan H. rileyana, but too much worn for 

 the pattern to be critically compared. 



$ , between Voi and Xdi, 2ud June, 1897. 



The specimen is an interesting addition, in spite of its poor 

 condition, on account of its evident close affinity to a New World 

 species.

Fresh examples are darker coloured than the typical form (which 

 was evidently somewhat faded) ; the silvery white marking on the 

 primaries also sometimes is continued back completely to the base, 

 though the basal half is less purely white than the permanent 

 marking. 0. donaldsoni is new to the Museum collection.

The female is quite new to the Museum : structurally it per- 

 fectly agrees with Lebeda nobilis. A single male from Delagoa Bay 

 was received in 1893, but is so much more yellow and altogether 

 brighter in colour than the female that it was not recognized as 

 Dewitz's species ; it also differs in having the body above glistening 

 golden buff, with a large black dorsal patch extending from the 

 base to the anal segment.

208. SCOTINOCHEOA XNCONSEQUENS, 



Scotinochroa inconsequens, Butler, P. Z. S. 1896, p. 845. 



Maziwa Mitatu, 24th March, 1897. 



A single worn and very dirty male specimen, which must, I 

 think, be referable to this species, but differs in having a pale buff 

 patch with reddish centre at external angle of primaries ; other- 

 wise it agrees in pattern with the type : it is interesting as a variety. 



Scotinochroa is very closely related to Zinara^ Walk.
