vague, but I think, from the striking character of the uuder- 

 surface markings, there can be little doubt that this is Mabille's 

 species ; the upper surface appears to be not much milike the 

 Pampliila gisgon of the same author. 



141. OSMODES BAKOHA. 



Pampliila ranoha, Westwood in Oates's ' Matabele-Land,' p. 353 

 (1881). 



Zomba, December 1892 and January 1893. 



The Hewitson collection contains two specimens unnamed, 

 labelled " Zanzibar " and " Nyassa " respectively. 



142. Heteroptebfs eormosus, sp. n. (Plate LX. fig. 8.) 



Black-brown, with an angular ochreous subapical band, con- 

 stricted or divided at third median branch, and a small spot of the 

 same colour near external angle ; secondaries with six submarginal 

 ochreous spots, the fringe usually varied mth the same colour ; the 

 head and thorax more or less clothed with dull ochraceous hairs : 

 primaries below dark cupreous brown, almost black ; costal margin

 streak, followed below origin of first subcostal branch by a spot ; 

 a shorter streak in the cell ; a minute transverse spot at end of 

 cell ; the angular band and spot of upper surface bright ochreous ; 

 internervular folds terminating in a marginal series of more or 

 less triangular pale yellow spots ; outer edge of fringe slightly 

 varied vrit\i yellow at apex : secondaries milk-whitish, the sub- 

 median interspace pale sordid yellow, traversed towards anal 

 angle by a looped blackish line from submedian vein ; all the

Evidently this beautiful species is not rare.

 a sinuous transverse spot at end of cell, two obliquely placed
