of the primaries, which are fuscous, are checkered with black at the 
ends of the nervules, and are conspicuously white at the apex and 
at the inner angle. The specimen in Dr. Staudinger’s collection 
is labelled “ melanina” in the handwriting of Mons. Mabille. The 
published name is melania, and this of course stands.

The type was purchased from Doncaster with a lot of other 
African material. Whether the locality label attached to the 
specimen is correct I cannot be positively certain, as some of the 
things bought at the time were plainly not from the localities 
indicated upon the labels.

Hab. Zomba, British Central Africa. 
I only know this species by the description given by the author, 
and the figure prepared by Mr. Horace Knight, which is reproduced 
upon the plate. I place it in this section of the genus with much 
doubt, but it plainly belongs here, rather than elsewhere.

Weymer in Stiibel’s ‘ Reise,’ p. 126, pl. iv. fig. 5, describes and 
illustrates a species from Ecuador as Hesperia micacea. Inasmuch 
as Mabille’s name drops as a synonym in the case of the present 
species, that of Weymer should be allowed to stand for the species 
he named.
