bordered with black. $ ivith apical 'patch Hack {sometimes partly 
marked very faintly with purplish)^ with a central roiv of lake-red or 
white spots. Under side creamy or pale-yellow ^ with neuration beyond 
basal area more or less ferruginous-red ; apical patch inwardly rose-red, 
outwardly like hind-wings ; base of fore-wings with a red or orange 
suffusion. 
4 Species. — Celimene, Lucas ; Fholoe, Wallengr. ; Zoe, Grandi- 
dier; Prceclarus, Butl. 
Kange. — Tropical Africa ; Extra-Tropical South Africa as far as 
27° lat. ; Madagascar. 
[Section XVIII. — Eepresentative : Eidimene, Klug. 
Fore-wings moderately produced apically ; apex itself rather 
rounded. 
White, with rather small ochreous-yclloiv {in $ shot with pink) apical 
patch, outwardly very narroivly, inwardly broadly, black boi^dered ; ter- 
minal disco-cellular black spot very large. Under side luhite, with 
neuration mostly orange-red ; hind-margins tinged with sulphur-yellow ; 
an orange-red longitudinal stripe along costa of fore-ivinys ; a discal 
series of black spots, larger in Sexes very similar ; all black mark- 
ings stronger in ^.

I Species. — Eidimene, Klug. 
Eange. — Eastern North-Tropical Africa.] 
Section XIX. — Eepresentative : Chrysonome, Klug. 
Fore-wings as in Section lY., but hind-wings with second sub- 
costal nervule originating at, or only a little distance before, extre- 
mity of discoidal cell, which is considerably less than half length of 
wing. 
Creamy ochreous-yelloiu ivith white bases, black hind-marginal borders 
spotted with ground-colour, and a sinuated black discal ray in fore-ioings 
{sometimes in hind-ioings also) ; or sulphur-yelloiv ivith black apical 
patch and hind-marginal borders similarly spotted. Under side whitish 
or sulphur-yelloiv {field of fore-wings sometimes deep ochreous- yellow), 
with more or less broad ochreous-ferruginous neuration and transverse 
{sometimes submacidar bars of the same colour. Sexes very similar. 
8 Species. — Chrysonome, Klug ; Vesta, Eeiche ; Velleda, Lucas ; 
Amelia, Lucas ; Gaudens, Butl. ; Aurigineus, Butl. ; Ilanningtoni, 
Butl. ; Protomedia, Klug. 
Eange. — All Africa except Extra- Tropical Northern to west of 
Egypt, and Extra-Tropical Southern to south of 30° lat. 
It will be seen from the above analysis that twelve of the nineteen 
sections are represented in South Africa, and the same number in 
North-Tropical Africa, while South- Tropical Africa is richer than both 
by one section. Twelve sections are peculiar to Africa, including
