16 Mr. W. F. Kirby's Notes on the African Saturniidcs 



3. B. Angasana, Westw. Natal. 



4. B. Tliomsonii, n. sp., infra. Camaroons. 



5. B. Eblis, Streck. Camaroons. 



A single specimen, very badly rubbed, but differing in 

 no respect from the description. 



6. B. Nictitans, Fabr. Sierra Leone. 



7. B. Tyrrhena, Westw. Natal. 



Genus Imbrasia, Hiibn. 



1. /. — , sp. n. ? Sierra Leone. 



I do not venture to describe a single specimen in bad 

 condition, in the absence of any of the allied species to 

 compare with it. 



Genus Ukota, Westw. 

 1. U. Sinope, Westw. Natal? 

 A single specimen, erroneously labelled " Brazil." 



Genus Antherjda, Hiibn. 



1. A. Surakuy Boisd. Madagascar. 



2. A. C]/the7'ea, Fabr. Africa. 



A pair in poor condition, mthout locality. This is 

 known to be a very variable species, and the figures of 

 Sulzer {Bomb. Hesperus minor, Gen. Ins. t. 21, f. 1) 

 and Stoll {Att. Capensis, Pap. Ex. iv. t. 302 A, B, 

 325 G) are very dissimilar, the former agreeing most 

 nearly with the Fabrician description. The figure in 

 Hiibner's Sammlung, vol. i., differs so much that I have 

 ventured to describe it below as A. Hilbneri, from the 

 figure. 



3. A. Dione, Fabr. Sierra Leone. 



Petiver's figure (Gaz. t. 29, f. 3) probably represents 

 this species, otherwise the typical West- African form has 

 never been figured. The two following species have been 

 considered to be varieties of A. Dione; but this appears
