240- B. NiTiicoBNis, Ploetz. 

 . Hesperia niveicornis, Ploetz, 8. E. Z. vol. xliv. p. 3 (1883). 



ffab. Angola. 



I only know this species from the figure of Ploetz. It is very 

 remarkably ornamented upon the underside of the wings, and the 

 description given is sufficient to enable its identification. 



241. B. (?) NBOBA, Mab. 



Famphila neoba, Mab. C. E. Soc. Ent. Belg. vol. xxxv. 

 p. clxxxviii (1891). 



Hah. Cameroons {Mahille). 



I only know this species from the description and the drawing 

 of the type furnished me by Mons. Mabille. It is impossible 

 from either to be sure of the species or its generic location. 



242. B.(?) ZBPHOEA, PJoetz. 



Apaustus zepTiora, Ploetz, S. E. Z. vol. xlv. p. 156 (1884). 

 Hah. Angola (Ploetz). 



I do not know this species save by the description. It does 

 not seem to apply to any of the species known to me in nature. 



243. B. (?) BATJEi, Ploetz. 



Hesperia hauri, Ploetz, S. E. Z. vol. xlvii. p. 98 (1886). 



Hah. Aburi. 



I do not know this species, and locate it here provisionally. . 



244. B. (?) MUEGA, Mab. 



Pamphila murga, Mab. Ann. Soc. Ent. France, (6) vol. x. p. 31 

 (1890). 



Hah. Caffraria (Mabille). 



Mons. Mabille compares this species with P. natalensis, Ploetz. 

 I cannot discover that Ploetz ever published a species under the 

 name of natalensis. Erom the description, the insect seems to be 

 possibly a Baoris, but it may be a Pardaleodes. I locate it here 

 provisionally, as I am unable to learn anything about it from the 

 author of the species. 



245. B. (?) HOLTzn, Ploetz. 



Hesperia holizii, Ploetz, S. E. Z. vol. xliv. p. 43-4 (1883). 

 Hah. Angola (Ploetz). 



I can make nothing out of either the description Or the figure 

 of Ploetz. The insect represented seems both to myself and to 

 Mons. Mabille to be a possible variety of C. mathias-mohopaani. 

 I amj however, very strongly inclined to the opinion that it is the 

 same insect recently described by Mr. Trimen under the name 

 Pamphila monad (q. v.).
