the submarginal series of blackish, spots in the hindwings 
incomplete. On the underside both sexes of /. semulus 
are well distinguished by the not only very much nar- 
rower but also quite differently coloured — red^ instead of 
orange-ochreous and black-edged — transverse streaks, 
and by those of these markings that are sub-basal and 
disco-cellular being reduced to short widely-disconnected 
portions, instead of constituting continuous bands (from 
costal edge of the forewings) common to both fore and 
hindwings. The conspicuous feature common and 
peculiar to aphnaeoides and aemulus on the underside is 
the submarginal series of small black spots in both 
wings. 
Mr. A. E. Eiunt sent me his description and drawing 
of the ? in March, 1893, and noted that the only 
specimen he had seen was found by a child on the 
Blackburn estate near Urban, Natal. 1 was disposed 
to think that the specimen depicted might be an 
aberration of I. ajphnxoides/^ until the arrival, in March, 
1894, of the fine 6 above described, which was captured 
on the Berea, D'Urban, by Mr. A. D. Millar, on the 17th 
November, 1889. Mr. Millar writes that this example 
was settling on the leaves of a creeper covering the bush 
at the side of a road; it took a short flight before it 
re-settled and was captured, and examination showed 
that it was not I. sidus, which on the underside it much 
resembled. No second specimen has been seen by either 
observer.
