Imago. — Characters generally of Eurytela. Antennce with a longer 
club ; eyes smooth. Thorax rather thicker, more rounded. Fore- 
tuings : not apically produced ; hind-margin not angulated or dentated, 
but very slightly sinuated. Hind-wings : not so prominently humped 
near base ; hind-margin rather more decidedly sinuated than on fore- 
wings. Middle- and hind-legs with the tibise and tarsus more spiny, 
and the tibial spurs longer. Abdomen more slender and much longer. 
Pupa. — Slender, elongate, especially in abdominal region ; anal 
extremity with suddenly-narrowed point of attachment from blunt end 
of abdomen. Cephalic prominences well-marked, acutely pointed ; 
dorso-thoracic elevation highly ridged to a sharp point ; edges of wing- 
covers prominently ridged at shoulders and again at posterior angles, 
forming strong projections laterally ; between these two hinder projec- 
tions, at base of back of abdomen, a pointed tubercular prominence ; 
two minute tubercular points on median line of back, about midway 
between base and extremity of abdomen. Antennte-covers prominent. 
(These characters of the pupa are given from a living example 
sent to me by Colonel Bowker at the beginning of December 1878, 
from Natal.) 
The elongated abdomen and almost entire hind-margins of the 
wings are the features which mainly distinguish Hypanis from Eury- 
tela. Its pattern and colouring are, however, highly characteristic, the 
fulvous-ochreous upper side being varied with black bands and irregular 
markings, while the under side of the hind- wings is remarkable for the
