70. ACE^A GTJILLEMEI. 



S . Acrcea guillemei, Oberthiir, Etudes, livr. xvii. p. 19, pi. 1. 

 fig. 1 (1893). 



$ . Smoky grey, w\i\x black borders and spots as in the male. 



Zomba, July 1892 and January 1893. 



This species, ^Wth its dusky female, is rather strikingly distinct ; 

 it does not appear to be rare. 



71. ACR^A NATALICA. 



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

 S 2 , Zomba, July 1892 ; Lake Mweru. 



72. ACE^A AECTICINCTA. 



Acrcea arciicincta, Butler, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 5, vol. xii. 

 p. 103 (1883). 



Acrcea anemosa, Staudinger, Exot. Schmett. pi. 33. fig. 1. 



Zomba, July 1892. 



As I pointed out in my description, the black border of the 

 secondaries in this Acrcea is only half the \\idth of that in 

 A. anemosa : the black oblique streak at the end of the cell of 

 primaries is also narrower ; it is a well-marked representative form, 

 between which and the species named by Hewitson I have seen 

 no hnks. 



73. ACR^A ARECA. 



Acrcea areca, Mabille, Bull. Soc. Ent. France, 1888 ; Nov. Lap. 

 p. 100, pi. xiv. p. 5 (1893). 



Acrcea Mara, Grose Smith, Ann. & Mag. Nat. Hist. ser. 6,

S , Zomba, July 1892 ; 2 , December 1892. 



The female has a pale subapical white patch immediately beyond 

 the black oblique bar after end of cell of primaries. 



74. Acrcea acara. 



Acrcea acara, Hewitson, Exot. Butt, iii., Acr. pi. 3. figs. 19, 20

2 . Var. Acrcea pseucloly da, Butler, Cist. Ent. i. p. 213 (1874). 



S ? , Zomba, July 1892. 



A. pseuclolycia is a rare albino form of the female. 



75. Planema johnstoni. 



S . Acrcea jo7mstoni, Godman, P. Z. S. 1885, p. 537. 



2 . Acrcea (Plctnema) joJmstom, Butler, P. Z. S. 1888, p. 91. 



2 2 , Zomba, December 1892 and January 1893. 



As already stated, Dr. Holland has given the full synonymy of 

 this species, which is more variable in colouring than any other 

 Planema. I have seen examples in various collections corr spend- 

 ing with most of those figured by M. Oberthiir.
