Miss E. M. Sharpe on new African Lycamidge. 105 
to the anal angle is a patch of rufous-brown, with two small 
tails. 
Exp. 23 millim. 
Hab. Sierra Leone. 
Zeritis latifimhriata , sp. n. 
Allied to G. liarpax , Fabr., but differs in the greater extent 
of the reddish yellow on the fore wing, thus making the black 
border narrower ; there is a black spot at the end of the dis- 
coidal cell. The base of both wings is suffused with black. 
The hind wing has a narrow black line along the hind 
margin with a grey fringe ; the costal portion is black. 
There are two tails, the last being very thick. 
The underside is paler than in Z.harpax, with the silver lines 
more marked ; between the two tails on the hind wing is a 
large spot of silver. 
This may probably turn out to be the female of Z.fallax. 
Exp. 30 millim. 
Genus Aphn^eus. 
Aphnceus chalybeatus , sp. n. 
Nearest to A. orcas , Drury, but is much smaller and the 
blue not so bright nor so distinctly marked on either of the 
wings. 
The underside is a deep brownish red with spots of silver 
enclosed in black ; from the end of the discoidal cell below 
the first median nervule is a silver streak on the fore wing. 
The hind wing is similar to the fore wing, with the excep- 
tion of two oblique silver lines between the submedian and 
internal nervures. 
Exp. 29 millim. 
Hab . Sierra Leone. 
Genus Lyc^nesthes. 
Lycoenesthes voltce , sp. n. 
Entirely white, with the base, costa, apical portion, and 
hind margin of the fore wing light brown ; there is a trans- 
verse line of brown at the end of the discoidal cell. 
The hind wing has the hind marginal border brown, with 
three angulated lines between the second and first median 
nervules and one near the anal angle. The fringe on the 
hind wing is white, with three tails at the end of the second 
and first median nervules and submedian nervure.
