A singular intermediate form between P. Panda and P. Leda is described 
and figured by Mr. Godman {Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1880, p. 183, pi. xix. 
fF. 2, 3) as P. Pione, from a specimen obtained by Mr. Last on the Gnuru Hills, 
opposite Zanzibar. In this species the white of the upper side is less deve- 
loped than in Leda, leaving a brown inner-marginal border from base to beyond 
middle in the fore-wings, and a costal narrow one in the hind-wings ; the ocelli, 
too, are mostly visible. On the under side it is much nearer Panda, being 
everywhere striated except for a small discal space in each wing immediately 
before the ocelli. Only a single example occurred in Mr. Last's collection.

Judging from the descriptions given, I think Mr. Selous' Tropical South- 
African species is identical with the Yphthima Bera of Hewitson {Ent. M. 
Mag., 1877, p. 107), from Lake Nyassa, from vfhxoh Neocoenyra dn;plex, Butler 
{Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1885, p. 758), a native of Somaliland, does not appear 
to be separable. Mr. A. W. Eriksson has lately (1888) sent me fourteen speci- 
mens taken on the Okavango River.

Four more examples of this rare butterfly have come under my notice ; 
one was captured by Mr. H. L. L. Feltham on the summit of Table Mountain 
on the 15th January 1888, and three were taken by Mr. R. M. Lightfoot on 
the same mountain, but at the lower elevation of about 2390 feet, on the 
ist February 1889.

There is considerable ground for believing that the variety occurring in 
both these species in which the under-side ocelli are very greatly reduced or 
almost obsolete is the winter or dry-season form. My attention was directed 
to this view by Mr. L. de Nic^ville, who sent me his interesting paper on the 
analogous cases observed by him among Indian Satyridce of the genera Myca- 
lesis, Ypthima, and Melanitis {Journ. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, Iv. p. 229, 1886). 
In Safitza and Perspicua, all the specimens which bear dates of capture by 
myself or others in Eastern South Africa have been carefully referred to, and 
I find that all but one Zululand Safitza, ticketed March 1887 (which has small 
ocelH), and a Natal one ticketed May 1884 (which has them moderately deve- 
loped), bear out M. de Niceville's Indian experience that the summer or wet- 
season specimens have the under-side ocelli fully developed, while the winter 
or dry-season specimens have them either greatly reduced or obsolete. It is 
worth noting that at Knysna, on the south coast of Cape Colony, where the 
year is not sharply divisible into a wet summer and a dry winter season, but 
where the rainfall is more irregularly distributed, the long series of Safitza
