area almost wholly fuscous varied with bluish ; while all the spots 
and other black markings are very much thinner, and the greenish- 
white much brighter, than in Benguelce throughout. 
From the West-African Crenis Amulia (Cram.) the species de- 
scribed is easily separated by its much bluer tint on the upper side, 
and by the much wider and greenish-white instead of bluish-white 
markings on the under side, although in the feature of the almost 
uniform ochre-yellow of the under side of the fore-wing the two species 
approach each other. 
The only example of this very beautiful Crenis that I have seen is the $ 
above described, which was taken by the late Mr. J. J. Monteiro at Delagoa 
Bay in 1877, and Vv^as acquired for Mr. Hewitson's collection, now in the 
British Museum. Mrs. Monteiro has informed me that this butterfly was 
captured on the wing " a little overhead," at a spot called Poulana, and that 
no other example was met with. 
In a paper in the Annals and Mag. Nat. Hist, for August 1883, Mr. A. G. 
Butler records the receipt of " a splendid male " of C. Rosa from the Victoria 
Nyanza, but does not note in what respect it differs from the female.

Imago. — Head of moderate size, hairy, with a small tuft of longer 
hairs at base of each antenna ; eyes usually hairy ; much elon- 
gated, not compressed laterally, separate throughout but converging 
slightly at tips, — second joint tufted above and finely hairy beneath, — 
terminal joint unusually long (about half as long as the second), rather 
blunt at tip, bent at a very obtuse angle with second joint and pro- 
jecting horizontally about level with top of head, densely scaled ; 
antennce of moderate length, with a gradually formed but rather short, 
slender, laterally-flattened club, ending obtusely. 
Thorax rather slender ; back shortly pilose anteriorly and poste- 
riorly ; breast rather scantily hairy. Fore-ioings : generally more or 
less produced apically, usually angulated at extremity of lower discoidal 
(radial) nervule and prominent at extremity of second median ner- 
vule ; costa but little arched ; apical angle well marked ; hind-margin 
dentated, usually more or less excavated in middle ; inner margin
