  Perhaps 
  a 
  variety 
  of 
  the 
  last 
  ; 
  described 
  as 
  having 
  7 
  small 
  white 
  

   spots 
  on 
  the 
  fore 
  wings 
  ; 
  it 
  would 
  appear 
  that 
  the 
  submarginal 
  

   spots 
  consist 
  of 
  one 
  near 
  the 
  costa 
  and 
  a 
  double 
  one 
  between 
  this 
  

   and 
  the 
  hinder 
  angle. 
  In 
  E. 
  pallida 
  the 
  former 
  is 
  double, 
  and 
  

   there 
  is 
  an 
  additional 
  spot 
  at 
  the 
  hinder 
  angle.

  Very 
  similar 
  to 
  the 
  last 
  two 
  species, 
  but 
  the 
  pale 
  spots 
  of 
  a 
  

   rather 
  yellower 
  white, 
  and 
  spot 
  5 
  forming 
  a 
  band 
  divided 
  only 
  by 
  

   the 
  nervures 
  into 
  5 
  spots.

  Fore 
  wings 
  rather 
  long, 
  with 
  white 
  spots 
  arranged 
  nearly 
  as 
  in 
  

   X.

  with 
  some 
  smaller 
  bluish 
  spots 
  near 
  the 
  base. 
  

   Hind 
  wings 
  yellow, 
  with 
  rather 
  broad

   head 
  and 
  thorax 
  spotted 
  with 
  white 
  ; 
  abdomen 
  banded 
  with 
  yellow

  I 
  am 
  doubtful 
  whether 
  this 
  species 
  really 
  belongs 
  to 
  

   Xanthospilopteryx, 
  but 
  mention 
  it 
  because 
  it 
  is 
  placed 
  

   there 
  in 
  the 
  Museum 
  Collection. 
  

  

  ''•' 
  All 
  the 
  species 
  of 
  Eusemia 
  described 
  in 
  the 
  work 
  above 
  quoted 
  

   belong 
  to 
  Xanthospiloj^teryx, 
  except, 
  perhaps, 
  E. 
  glossutrix, 
  which 
  

   I 
  have 
  excluded 
  from 
  the 
  present 
  paper 
  ; 
  it 
  is 
  purplish 
  black, 
  with 
  

   a 
  straw-colom-ed 
  marking 
  on 
  the 
  front 
  wings, 
  and 
  white 
  borders 
  to 
  

   the 
  hind 
  wings. 
  It 
  is 
  said 
  to 
  inhabit 
  S.E. 
  Afiica.
