even closer to that of C. adela 5 , but the central stripe is straighter 

 and ver}^ dark, with the irregular series of spots which bound it 

 internally white, the outer border (excepting at its extremities) 

 sandy brown, and the discal marldngs very indistinct. Expanse 

 of wings 64 milliiu. 



Two males and one female were obtained. 



4. Precis aukokina Butler. 



A female (very much shattered) of an example in \\hich the 

 tawny band crossing the wings is nearly half as wide again as 

 usual. If this should be ]:)roved to be a constant difference in 

 Uganda specimens, it would be necessary to regard them as 

 representing a distinct local race. 



5. Precis oebrene Trimen. 

 Two males. 



6. Precis boopis Trimen. 

 One shattered male. 



7.- Precis gregorii Butler. 

 A pair in poor condition. 



8. Cyrestis elegans Boisd. 

 A much shattered specimen. 



9. Eurttela htarba Eabr. 



Two examples. 



It is difficult to decide whether these Eastern examples should 

 be assigned to typical E. hyarha or var. angustata ; they seem to 

 vary as regards the width of the white band. 



10. Vanessula milca Hewits. 



An example with an unusually broad tawny band, remarkably 

 resembling the female of Precis (turovina in the same collection 

 excepting in size. 



11. Planema latiiasciaxa E. M. 8harpe. 



Two males. 



This is neA^" to us. 



12. AcRiEA ADMATHA., var. leucogkapHjV Hibbe. 



Two males. 



This is an extremely pretty local race of the species, which 

 Capt. Hobart assures me was quite common.

13. Nychitona medusa, var. immaculata Auriv. 

 One male.
