I have no doubt that the South African specimens I have seen belong here, 
though there are a few points of difference. No mention is made of the black 
postmedial curved streak from vein 3 to inner margin and it is also not shown 
in the figure of the <$, but it is present in the figure of the $; the head, thorax, 
antennae and legs are dark fuscous, not black as stated ; no mention is made of 
the dark fuscous abdominal patch on dorsal side; the white of the fore wing and 
tegulae has a pinkish tinge and is not pure white and my <^s are somewhat 
larger, 50 mm. 
I have further seen a $ from Shamva (S. Rhodesia), which is in Father 
O’Neil’s collection, which clearly shows that G. pyrrhotricha is the $ of G. serena . 
One 3 in my collection is from Que-que (South Rhodesia), kindly presented 
to me by Dr Peringuey, and I have another badly damaged <$ from the same 
locality. No dates were given. 
The $ was taken in Dec.. 1917 and has the white of the fore wing and 
tegulae distinctly pink.
