on liind- margin about or rather below first median nervule), and in- 
wardly by a dull-brown isli bar, broader and shorter than the black 
one in the and ending on lower radial nervule ; a small fuscous 
terminal disco-cellular spot ; blackish irroration limited to costa and 
discoidal cell. Undek side. — Hind-wing, and hasi-costcd and anneal 
hind-marginal areas of forc-iving, very pale straiu-yelloiv ; in both wings 
a fuscous terminal disco-cellular spot, larger in hind-wing. 
In a ^ from the Lydenburg District of the Transvaal the under 
side of the hind-wings and apex of fore-wings is tinted with pale 
creamy-pinkish. A $ taken on the Limpopo by Mr. Selous exhibits 
on the upper side of the hind-wings a very faint small fuscous mark 
on the costa beyond the middle. 
Among the drawings of some of Wallengren's types, kindly pro- 
cured for me by Mr, Chr. Aurivillius, was a careful figure of the $ 
Agoye, thoroughly agreeing with the former's description (loc. cit.). 
The species is a very distinct one, easily recognised by the small size 
and peculiar ochreous-orange tint of the apical patch, to which in the 
$ are added the fine black neuration and irroration in both fore and 
hind wings. 
This is a rare butterfly in collections, and was for many years known 
to me only by a series of seventeen specimens (only one $ ) brought from 
Damaraland by Mr. J. A. Eell, and by two or three other examples from the 
same country in the collection of the late Mr. C. J. Andersson. These examples 
had been pressed flat in a book, and did not properly exhibit all the characters 
of the species; but I have recently (in 1883 and 1885) received in good order 
a few individuals of both sexes from the North- West Transvaal and farther 
northward, from which the above description has been made. 
I have no particulars as to the habits of Agoye, or as to its special stations. 
In geographical range, though known to occur from Damaraland on the west 
to the Lydenburg District on the east, it seems to be very restricted in lati- 
tude, — its place south of the 26th parallel being apparently taken by the 
nearly allied Boivkeri, mihi.
