SOUTH-AFRICAN BUTTERFLIES. 
separated from it by black nervure ; the sexual discal coating of hairs 
somewhat woolly, specially apparent on median and radial nervules 
separating spots of band ; cilia with very minute white inter-nervular 
dots, except just below apex, where a very small white spot on hind- 
marginal edge (between third and fourth subcostal nervules) with 
adjoining white cilia is rather conspicuous. Hind-wing : band median, 
but nearer to base than to hind-margin, its inner edge sharply defined, 
nearly straight, — its outer edge somewhat beyond middle, rather dif- 
fused, pierced slightly by black inter-nervular rays ; a series of six 
conspicuous, moderate-sized, more or less rounded spots (each crossed 
by inter-nervular fold), usually touching, but sometimes just separate 
from, white marks of cilia, which are very much larger than in fore- 
wing ; the first and second of the hind-marginal spots smaller than the 
rest. Under side. — Outer half of liind-iving and apical area of fore- 
wing dark ochreous-broivn ; in hind-iving, median hand greatly reduced, 
and space hetiveen it and base didl yellow-oclireous ivith Mack markings. 
Fore-iving : ground brownish-fuscous ; most spots of band larger, on 
each side more rounded, less widely separated than on upper side, — 
the second spot almost obsolete and (together with the first, which is 
indistinctly defined) confused with some oblique greyish-white ill- 
defined apical clouding ; subcostal nervure at base edged beneath by 
white scaling. Hind-iving : band greatly narrowed, its outer half 
(except on costa) being obscured by pale-brownish, and further pierced 
by inter-nervular brown rays and marked by two brown striae in dis- 
coidal cell ; basal yellow-ochreous with the crossing nervures, a rounded 
spot, and thick end of ray between costal and subcostal nervures, a 
three-branched disco-cellular streak, and thick ends of rays on each 
side of submedian nervure, all black ; a small white spot at origin of 
median and submedian nervures ; just above radial nervule, about 
midway between end of cell and hind-margin, an ovate whitish spot, 
variable in size and definition ; hind-marginal spots much smaller than 
on upper side, — the third distinctly elongated in direction of discal 
spot, and the lower ones usually distinctly divided by blackish inter- 
nervular rays. 
Head and body above black. Head with basal and terminal joints 
(hirsute) of palpi, a pair of frontal and three pairs of vertical spots, 
and a spot outwardly edging each eye, yellowish-white. Thorax above 
with two pairs of similar spots on prothorax, and another pair (larger 
and hirsute) on pterygodes ; breast black, with nine or ten large ochre- 
yellow, yellowish, and yellowish-white spots on each side ; legs black, 
with the femora whitish or yellowish in front. Abdomen laterally 
dusky-brownish ; inferiorly pale-yellowish or yellowish- white, with two 
parallel longitudinal streaks and segmental incisions black. 
$ Quite unlike closely resembling ordinary $ of Papilio Cenea, 
StoU, and, like it, mimicking Amauris Echeria, Stoll. Brownish-black 
loith white spots ; hind-iving with a pale ochreous-yellow broad band (or
