REVISION OF GENUS ZAMARADA 237 



with dark brown. Non-hyaline terminal area light brown (pi. 6, D5) to brownish orange 

 (pi. 7, C4) proximad of dark brown, dentate subterminal fascia; suffused with dark brown 

 distad of it, except between veins M 3 and Cu lb on the fore wing and posterior of vein M 3 on 

 the hind wing, where the non-hyaline area is buff. 



In the male the subterminal fascia is strongly marked in the apical area of each wing and 

 the tornal area of the hind wing and is finely edged distally with buff. 



Measurements. Fore wing: <$ 15-18 mm; $ X 4 _I 5 mm. 

 Distribution. W. Africa, Guinea to Angola. 



Material examined. 



Comibaena reflexaria Walker, lectotype <$, Sierra Leone, 42-31 [pres. by Revd. 

 D. F. Morgan], without abdomen, in BMNH. Designated as 'type' by Swinhoe, 

 1904 : 517. 



Walker described Comibaena reflexaria from a series of four syntypes, two 

 specimens from Sierra Leone, one from South Africa and one without data; each 

 represents a different species. Swinhoe designated a male from Sierra Leone as 

 type, tantamount to a lectotype designation; the female paralectotype from Sierra 

 Leone is Zamarada nasuta Warren, the male paralectotype from South Africa 

 is Zamarada transvisaria Guenee and the male paralectotype without data is 

 Zamarada corroborata Herbulot.

Zamarada reflexaria apsis subsp. n. 



(PL 120, fig. 1080) 



Distinguished from the nominate subspecies by the more extensive striation of the hyaline 

 area of each wing that is found in most examples, by the broader, more rounded excavation 

 of the non-hyaline terminal area between veins M 3 and Cw lb and by the more extensive areas 

 of greyish rather than yellowish buff at mid-termen of fore wing and along the posterior half 

 of the termen on the hind wing. 



Measurements. Fore wing: <$ ^5'5~^T5 mm; $ 15-0-16-5 mm. 



Distribution. Zaire, Uganda, Kenya. 



Holotype $, Kenya: Kakamega, iii. 1966 (R. H. Carcasson), in BMNH. 



Paratypes. Kenya: holotype data, 1 $ (NMK, Nairobi); Kakamega, Kaimosi,
