6. Genus Erites. 



Krites, Mab. Bull. Soc. Ent. Beige, p. Ixxi (1891). 



Type, melunia, Mab. 



Very close to Sarangesa, from which it may be separated by the 

 more dentate margin to the hind wing, and by the lower margin of 

 the cell between veins 2 and 3 being straight. 



djfflcehe, Wllgr. 



And one unidentified species. 



A species closely allied to motozi, WUgr., had been wrongly 

 identified as djcelceUe in the British Museum collection. Therefore 

 all Mr. Butler's records of djcehelce really apply to this other species, 

 which is apparently unnamed, and which is in the British Museum 

 from Aden, Wadelai, Somali, and Abyssinia, the true djceltelce being 

 represented only from British Caffraria, Cape of Good Hope, 

 Transvaal, and Natal. 



7. Grenus Sarangesa. 



Sarangesa, Moore, Lep. Geyl. i. p. 176 (1881).

Type, micacea, Mab. 



Sape, Mabille, Bull. Soc. Ent. Beige, p. Ixvii (1891). 



Type, luddella, INIab. 



Antennae : club moderate, slightly recurved. Palpi porrect ; third 

 joint short, bluntly conical. Fore wing : inner margin longer than 

 outer margin; cell less than two-thirds the length of costa: vein 12 

 reaching costa well before end of cell ; discocellulars suberect, the 

 lower the longer ; vein 3 shortly before the end of cell ; vein 2 

 nearly three times as far from end of cell as from base of wing ; the 

 lower margin of cell slightly arched between the origins of veins 

 2 and 3. Hind wing : outer margin slightly sinuate ; vein 7 very 

 shortly before end of cell ; discocellulars and vein 5 barely traceable ; 

 vein 3 immediately before end of cell ; vein 2 hardly nearer to end 

 of cell thau to base of wing, iliud tibite with two pairs of spurs in 

 some species, with a tuft of hairs attached to the proximal end.

And seven unidentified species. 



The genus Sf//?ehas been erected by Mabille for nintozi and its allies, 

 but these species all fall into the genus Sarangesa. The species 

 micacea is one of the many species described by Hewitson which 

 have been redescribed by Mabille.
