Second Group of Species. 
The only species of this group differs also in the marking from the other species, the hindwing being 
on both sides decorated with the dark brown, white-centred dots, three of which are in the basal part (in 1 c, 
7, and the cell), the 8 others forming a bent discal row (in 1 b to 7). Forewing with 2 similar basal dots 
in 1 b and besides with hyaline spots in (1 b), 2, 3, 6 to 8, and in the discal cell; the two spots in the cell are 
sometimes combined into one. Forewing elongate with an almost rectangular apex. 
S. hollandi Btlr. Wings above monotonously brown without dark markings, beneath the basal part hollandi. 
of the forewing, and the hindwing almost entirely clothed with pale violettish-grey scales. Abdomen and 
palpi above brown, beneath whitish-grey. Nyassa Land; Rhodesia and Kigonsera in East Africa. 
Third Group of Species. 
By their size and shape of the wings the species of this group approximate those of the first group. 
Antennae with white rings and a long thin club. 
Review of the Species. 
A. Forewing with hyaline spots of unequal size, many of which are angular or irregular; the discal cell with 
two hyaline spots which are often united into a transverse spot. Both wings with distinct black spots 
on a somewhat lighter ground. 
a. Ground-colour of both wings (but not the black spots) on both sides, particularly above, strewn with 
greyish-blue scales. 8. grisea. 
[i. Wings almost without any bluish scales at all. 
*. The hyaline spot in the discal cell of the forewing is transverse or composed of two spots. 
S. majorella. 
**. The hyaline spot in the discal cell of the forewing is irregular angularly broken and usually forms 
three points one of which points towards the distal margin. 8 . tricerata. 
B. Wings very densely scaled. Forewing only with minute though numerous, equally sized hyaline dots. 
Hindwing with similar, whitish, but not transparent, often very indistinct dots. Fringes of the wings 
broad. Both wings with minute light marginal dots between the ends of the veins. 
a. Fringes of the wings light-spotted. 8 . astrigera. 
(3. Fringes of the wings without light spots. 8 . necivei. 
S. grisea Heic. (= micacea Mob.) (76 g) can be distinguished from all the other species by the greyish- grisea. 
blue scaling of the wings and body. Fore wing with hyaline spots in 2, 3, 6 to 8, 11, and two such spots 
often united in the discal cell. Liberia to Gabun. 
S. majorella Mab. (= motozi Karsch) (76 g). Forewing with the same hyaline spots as in grisea and majorella. 
besides often with 1 or 2 hyaline dots in 1 b; the hyaline spots, particularly that in 2, are often larger than 
in grisea. On being slightly magnified, the upper surface of the wings proves to be scantily strewn with small 
light grey scales, whilst at the apex of the forewing they are somewhat more densely strewn. Sierra Leone. 
S. tricerata Mab. (76 g) only differs in the shape of the hyaline spot in the discal cell of the fore wing; tricerata. 
it may only be a variation of S. majorella. Sierra Leone. 
S. astrigera Btlr. (76 h). Forewing generally with light dots in lb to 8, 11, and in the discal cell, astrigera. 
often also with two basal dots in 1 b. Hindwing at least with one dot in the cell and a bent row of discal 
dots, often also with some other dots. Nyassa Land. Rhodesia. — neavei Riley seems only to differ in the neavei. 
darker colour of the wings, the fringes being spotless. Rhodesia. 
Fourth Group of Species. 
Of the numerous species of this group many are not at hand, for which reason I am forced to base 
the following review merely on the colouring. 
Review of the Species. 
I. Hindwing above as far as the margin with a dark ground-colour, without a light marginal band. 
A. Hindwing beneath with a dark ground-colour, or rarely with a yellow ground-colour, but with a com¬ 
plete dark macular marking.
