Foda, 20ih October, 1883. 



The allied N. saclava is intermediate between N. marpessa and 

 N. nemefes, the figure by Chenu being, however, too inaccurate to 

 sliow this; the larger spots of primaries are wider and whiter, and 

 united at their opposed angles ; the band across the secondaries is 

 also slightly wider and of a pure white colour. I cannot find any 

 additional markings in N. marpessa such as ate described by Hopffer 

 and Trimen, all the white spots in N. marpessa from Natal, Angola, 

 and Abyssinia being represented in the three examples of N. saclava 

 labelled Madagascar in the Hewitson cabinet ; the white spots of 

 the zigzag discal series and of the submarginal series are, neverthe- 

 less more prominent in N. marpessa.
