§§. The hyaline spots in the discal cell of the forewing are united forming a transverse spot.

white discal spots in 1 b to 5 and three subapical dots (in 6 to 8). Hindwing above with a 
narrow white transverse band in 2 to 5, and beneath besides with a triangular spot in the

cell of the forewing are separate. P. jlavifasciola. 
II. Head and palpi decorated with white spots. Forewing above only with three discal spots, a yellowish one

yellowish discal spots. The discal cell of the forewing with two separated or united hyaline spots above 
each other. P. netoplia. 
P. micans Holl. (= marchalii Snell.) (78 g) together with the following species auritincta forms a micans. 
separate, easily recognizable group, and occurs from the Ogowe Valley across Central Africa to British East 
Africa. 
P. auritincta Btlr. (= pyrrhobaphes Mab.) (78 f) is very closely allied to micans, and seems only to auritincta.

transverse band extending at least between the veins 1 b and 6. Ogowe Valley. 
P. borbonica is recognizable by the light yellowish, not transparent discal spot in 1 b of the forewing 
and the under surface being clothed with large, yellowish scales. It is common, widely distributed and occurs 
in two not sharply separated forms. — borbonica Bsd. (78 e, f) is without any hyaline dot in the discal cell borbonica.

of the forewing generally showing a small hyaline spot at the costal margin opposite vein 10. Everywhere on 
the continent of the Ethiopian region. 
P. fatuella Hpjjr. (78 e) is very closely allied to the preceding species and is often mixed up with fatuella.
