Donovan in his plate figures the female of this species, which 
may always be recognized by the elongate marginal spot on the 
secondaries beyond the end of the cell. This spot has the form of 
a parallelogram, and does not fuse with the adjacent spots so fully 
as is the case in the male, where its sharp outlines are lost in the 
spots on either side of it. Dr. Staudinger gives a good figure of 
the male in his ‘ Exotische Schmetterlinge.’ Mons. Mabille kindly 
determined for me a number of species upon the occasion of a 
recent visit to Paris, among them Pardaleodes fulgens, Mab. The 
specimens so determined are undoubtedly C. galenus, Fabr.,. ¢. I 
have a series of nearly 100 specimens of both sexes, some of them 
taken in cottu, and am satisfied of the correctness of the synonymy 
given as above. 
This is one of the commonest of West-African butterflies and is 
found from Senegambia to Upper Angola, and Manica (T'rimen).

Having seen the types of P. rutilans, Mab., and of P. tergemira, 
Hew., and a carefully executed copy of the drawing of 7. woer- 
mann, 2, made by Ploetz, I have not a shadow of doubt as to the 
correctness of the above synonymy.
