Hab. Valley of the Ogové. 
G. cyprures, Holl., var. PALLIDA. 
There are two specimens contained in the Staudinger collection 
in which the markings on the underside of the secondaries are 
quite obscure, and the general coloration of these wings on the 
ee is paler. I propose the name pallida for this varietal 
orm. 
Oxypatrus, Wats.

Mr. Watson has properly cited P. gisgon, Mab., as the female 
of P. ignita, Mab. All the specimens of P. ignita I have ever 
seen, some fifty or more, have been males, and all of P. gisgon have 
been females. I had an opportunity of seeing the type of P. gisgon, 
and of pointing out to Mons. Mabille that it is a female. In the 
‘ Noyitates ’ he cites it in the plate as of this sex. On the under- 
side P. ignita and P. gisgon agree very well. There are two forms, 
probably seasonal, one smaller and more tawny, the other longer 
and darker. Both are represented in my collection and that of 
Dr. Staudinger. 
129. O. annutirer, Holl. (Plate III. fig. 11.)

Oxypalpus ruso, Butl. P. Z.S. 1893, p. 669. 
Hab. Bagamoyo (Mabille); Zomba (Butler). 
The type I saw in the collection of Mons. Mabille. The species 
is not contained either in my own collection or that of Dr. Stau- 
dinger. The figure in the plate was drawn from the type.
