1894.] FROM BRITISH EAST AFRICA. 567 



tative of A. acrita, from which it only differs in the absence of the 

 broad apical black patch on the primaries ; in well-marked 

 examples all the spots (on the absence of which Dr. Staudinger 

 relies) are well denned ; one specimen even shows an additional 

 spot on the subcostal area, nearer to apex. 



48. ACRJEA NATALICA. 



Acrcea natalica, Boisduval, Voy. de Deleg. p. 590. n. 57 (1847). 

 INgatana, December and January. 



49. Acrcea henippe. 



Papilio menippe, Drury, 111. Exot. Ent. iii. pi. 13. figs. 3, 4 

 (1782). 



One worn female from Ngatana. 



50. AcrjEA anemosa. 



Acrcea anemosa, Hewitson, Exot. Butt, iii., Acr. pi. 3. figs. 14, 15 

 (1865). 



Two good specimens without labels of locality, but probably 

 from the Sabaki Valley. 



51. ACRiEA INSIGiSlS. 



Acrcea insignia, Distant, P. Z. S. 1880, p. 184, pi. ix. fig. 4. 

 No exact locality ; probably Sabaki Valley. 



52. PlAJTEMA MONTANA. 



3 . Planema montana, Butler, P. Z. 8. 1888, p. 91. 



2 • Pattern of male, decidedly larger, the primaries to outer 

 border of secondaries f uliginous ; the band of primaries and central 

 area of secondaries white, interrupted by blackish veins ; base of 

 secondaries suffused with dull tawny buff, the black spots of the 

 under surface showing through. Expanse of wings 82 milliin. 



5 , Kibwezi. 



We have received both sexes of this species from Kilimanjaro. 



53. HyREUS iEQUATORIALIS. 



Lycwna cequatorialis, E. M. Sharpe, P. Z. S. 1891, p. 637, 

 pi. xlviii. fig. 5. 



6 2 , Summit of Mount Hohnel, 16,000 feet ; Kenya and camp 

 below the old ice-fall, 10,500 feet. 



Strictly speaking this species and If. webbianus hardly belong 

 to Hyreus, as their hind wings are not tailed. 



The figure is taken from a somewhat abnormal specimen ; most 

 examples have the dark discal band toothed in the centre, the 

 prominence emitted from the centre of the band and sometimes 

 entirely dividing the white submarginal band ; this is the case 

 with Dr. Gregory's pair of the species, and with several unset 

 specimens shown to me by Miss Sharpe.
