Additional locality : — Zululand : Etshowe {A. M. Goodrich). 
The single 9 in Captain Goodrich's collection was taken in March 1887. 
It differs from those described in the text by the possession of a good-sized 
space of white in the lower central area of the hind-wings, extending from the 
basal to the hind-marginal blackish.

A remarkable Aberration of this Variety, taken at Pinetown, Natal, by 
Major D'Aguilar, in March 1886, has been sent to me by Colonel Bowker. 
In this example (a $ ) the fore-wings are obscured with sooty black, altogether 
obliterating subapical bar, and leaving only a paler dusky space along inner 
margin and in middle of wing ; black spots enlarged, lengthened, diffused. 
The hind-wings have a broad dusky-black border, pierced deeply by the much- 
elongated, outwardly-acuminate, discal spots, which unite with the inter- 
nervular dusky rays ; the basal and terminal disco-cellular spots are also much 
enlarged and elongated. On the under side similar peculiarities are observable, 
but in both fore and hind wings the hind-marginal border is yellowish, and in 
the hind- wings the elongated discal spots are more conspicuous on the clear 
ground. 
A less remarkable " sport " of the typical or rufous form of this species is a 
$ taken at Etshowe, Zululand, by Mr. T. Vachell, in which the discal spots of 
the fore- wings are greatly elongated towards base. 
Additional locality in Transvaal : — Barberton (C. F. Palmer).

In March 1888 I received from Mr. J. M. Hutchinson a number of speci- 
mens of the pupa of this species (from larvae collected at Estcourt, Natal), four 
of which were still alive and yielded the perfect insect. This pupa, though 
smaller and more slender, is not at all unlike that of A. Horta ; the ground 
being white or creamy, with the outlines of wings and neuration strongly
