SATYRIN^. 
lOl 
wing not reaching ocellus, but scarcchj reaching Icyond outer transverse 
streak, whichj with that in cell, is usually clearly marked in both sexes. 
Hind-wing : two crenelated dark-brown transverse lines, one before, the 
other about middle ; ocelli very faintly represented by pale dots and in- 
complete pale rings, seven in number ; beyond them a lunulate dark 
line. In both wings a dark line along, and close to, hind-margin. 
In some $ specimens the ocellus of fore- wing is tripupillate, the 
lowest pupil indicating the existence of a second ocellus ; and two $s in 
my collection have, in addition to the large three-pupilled ocellus, two 
well-marked smaller ocelli between first and third median nervules, the 
lower being the larger. In one ^ the fulvous indistinctly extends 
round outer edge of large ocellus, as in Cramer's figure, and indications 
of this appear in others. 
Aberr. — Fore-iving : fulvous paler than usual, well-defined, dis- 
tinctly and broadly divided into two portions, basal and subapical 
(very much as in Fseudonymflia Trimenii^ ButL), the dark dividing 
space being limited by the two dark transverse streaks usually obser- 
vable in the and dusted with fulvous ; ocellus bipupillate, larger 
than usual, more obliquely placed. Hind-wing : three of the four 
ocelli rather larger than usual and very distinct. Under side. — More 
ochreous ; markings less distinct. Fore-wing : fulvous paler ; outer 
dark transverse streak straighter and more strongly marked. 
Hah. — Zwaarte Ruggens, Uitenhage District; August iZyo {J. 
H. Bowker). 
Godart (loc. cit.) notes two males in which the fore- wings wholly 
wanted the ocellus on the upper side, but on the under side were quite 
as usual. 
Larva. — Pale sandy-brown ; along middle of back a fine double 
black line, between two sinuated dusky streaks ; on each side a sub- 
dorsal, broad, dusky streak, crossed superiorly on each segment by a 
short, oblique, narrow mark of the ground-colour ; spiracles black, 
surrounded by dusky irroration. Head large, dark-brown, set with 
short black bristles and sandy hairs. Body generally rather closely 
set with short black bristles ; tail very slightly bifid, the two short pro- 
minences sandy, set with black bristles like the rest of the surface. 
Pupa. — Pale-sandy, inclining to reddish abdominally, everywhere 
minutely reticulated with fuscous. A fuscous line down middle of back ; 
the edges of all the limbs, and the neuration of the wings defined by 
fuscous lines. Back of abdomen with a pale- sandy streak on each side 
and two very indistinct central ones ; a series of indistinct paler spots 
just above spiracles. Length 71 lines. Form like that of Clytiis, but 
abdomen shorter inferiorly, being more abruptly curved. 
Not suspended ; lying perfectly free and unattached. 
Mr. T. D. Butler and Mr. K. Lightfoot both brought me examples of this 
larva, but I did not succeed in rearing any of them. The latter, however, 
was more successful, obtaining two pupae from larvpc collected in August 1885.
