characterized by having all the spots of the fore wings white and 

 the underside paler and browner. These examples are small (exp. 

 al. 6 2 in. 9 lin., 5 3 in.) ; and the male has the fore wings 

 decidedly less elongated apically than usual, while the ochry- 

 yellow band of the hind wings is in both sexes paler and rather 

 naiTOwer. 



Judging from the brief description (Proc. Zool. Soc. 1888, 

 p. 91), I should refer to this variety of A. eclieria the A. hanning- 

 tonii of Butler, from Terta near Kilima-njaro. I also consider 

 that A. jacksoni, E. M. Sharpe (op. cit. 1891, p. 633, pi. xlviii. 

 fig. 2), from Sotik, Kavirondo, is inseparable from the same variety, 

 only differing in the reproduction on the upperside of a good many 

 more of the hind-marginal and submarginal spots of both wings 

 always present on the underside.

Six examples captured in the Pungwe River present no variation 

 from the Natalian type-form.

Three specimens from Pungwe River quite agree with extra- 

 tropical examples. Mr. Selous noted a good many of this con- 

 spicuous species settling on bushes among large trees in a shady 

 ravine.

5. Ypthima astebope, Klug. 



A male (Christmas Pass) and a female (Mineni Valley) are 

 above the usual size and paler ; in these respects, in the distinctness 

 of the common submarginal dark streak, and in the well-defined 

 pale space round the outlines of the fore wings they approach those 

 brought from Tropical S.W. Africa by Mr. Eriksson ; but as regards 

 the underside, the minute striolation of both wings and the ocelli of 

 the hind wings are much better developed and approximate these 

 two examples to the smaller specimens received from Natal and 

 Zululand.

There are four males of this distinct species — three from 

 Christmas Pass and one from Mineni Valley. In the hind wings 

 the minute subapical and inferior anal-angular ocelli are wanting 

 on the upperside, and in two examples the first and third in the
