p. Marginal band of hindwing above 3 to 6 mm broad, extended from the hind-margin to vein 6. Fore¬ 
wing with 5 to 8 hyaline dots. Hindwing beneath almost to the base and costal margin orange or yellow. 
1. Marginal band of hindwing above only 3 to 4 mm broad orange ($) or pale yellow ($). S. brigida. 
2. Marginal band of hindwing above about 6 mm broad and with black discal spots in 4 and 5. S. hereus. 
S. motozi Wallengr. (= pato Trim., helmi Karsch, $ = pertusa Mab .) (76 e) differs from all the other motozi. 
species in the hyaline spot in the centre of the hindwing. Forewing with hyaline spots in 2, 3, 6 to 8, 11, and 
with a frequently large transverse spot in the discal cell; sometimes also with 1 or 2 spots in 1 b. Under sur¬ 
face particularly of hindwing spotted yellow. Cape Colony to Angola, Somali Land, and Abyssinia. Sene- 
garnbia. — ophthalmica Mab. only differs in the yellow spots beneath being better developed and occurring ophthalmi- 
also on the forewing above. Delagoa Bay. — ophthalmicodes Strd. is based upon a $ in which the hyaline ca - 
spot of the hindwing is punctiform. German East Africa: Mkatta. 
S. motozioides Hall, is unknown to me, but it may be determined according to the marks stated in motozioides. 
the review. Ogowe Valley and British East Africa. 
S. haplopa Swh. (76 g, as haploa). The figure does not necessitate any further description. Ruwenzori. haplopa. 
S. plistonicus Plotz (76 g) is very much like the following lucidella. Hindwing on both sides with more plistonicus. 
numerous and more distinct dark spots. Gold Coast to Rhodesia. Figure copied from Plotz. 
S. lucidella Mab. (76 e) only differs from plistonicus in the marks already mentioned above. German lucidella. 
East Africa. 
S. kobela Trim. (76 f). The marking above is to be seen from the figure. Beneath some of the light kobela. 
dots of the upper surface are often absent, and the hindwing shows a curved transverse row of black, often 
white-centred discal spots which are sometimes also visible above. Cape Colony to Transvaal. 
S. lunula H.-Drc. (76 g). Hindwing on both sides with a black marginal band, above in the centre but lunula. 
very faintly lighter, beneath somewhat more distinctly lighter brownish-yellow, so that the large black spots 
become visible. In the figure the hindwings are too dark. Congo District: Kassai. 
S. maxima Neave. Forewing with one hyaline dot each in the discal cell and in the areas 2, 3, 6 to maxima. 
8, beneath with ochreous spots in the cell, at the base of the areas 4 and 5 and behind the centre with a 
transverse row of angular yellow spots in 1 b to 7; at the margin on each side of the folds with a yellowish 
dot. Hindwing above greyish-brown, with distinct black spots: one basal spot each in 1 c, 7 and the cell, a 
median spot at the apex of the cell, discal spots in 1 c to 7, and submarginal spots in the same areas. Hind¬ 
wing beneath with the very same spots distinctly contrasting with the bright yellow ground-colour. Rho¬ 
desia. — flava Riley differs in both wings above showing large angular orange spots, and is considered as the jlava. 
dry season form. Rhodesia. 
S. pandaensis Joicey & Talbot. Upperside black, densely strewn with greyish-brown scales, and with pandaensis. 
spots of that colour. Forewing with one hyaline dot each in the cell and in 1 b, 2, 3, 6, 8, greyish-brown 
spots and a grey marginal line. Hindwing with the usual transverse rows of greyish-brown spots. Forewing 
beneath with a black ground-colour and yellow spots, like in maxima. Hindwing beneath blackish-brown 
with transverse rows of orange spots. Congo District: Lufira Valley. 
S. Iaelius Mab. (= synestalmenus Karsch) is somewhat larger than the following species and at once laelius. 
discernible by the dark under surface. Forewing with hyaline spots in 2 and 3. Togo Land to Gabun. -— 
trlstis Rbl. (76 f as laelius). Forewing without hyaline spots in 2 and 3. East Africa : Bukoba. — laelioides tristis. 
Riley is darker, and both wings beneath at the margin broadly lighter yellowish-grey; the number of hyaline iaelioides - 
dots on the forewing varies. Rhodesia. 
S. eliminata Holl. (76 f). Forewing generally with hyaline dots in 2, 3, 6 to 8 and in the cell at eliminata. 
the anterior margin. Hindwing above with indistinct dark spots. Both wings beneath with a yellow ground¬ 
colour and rows of dark spots. German East Africa to Abyssinia. •— deserticola Rbl. is the dry season and desert deserlicoia. 
form. It only differs in the more olive green ground-colour above and the lighter yellow ground-colour beneath. 
Sahara; Sudan; Kordofan; Arabia. 
The following five species (?) exhibiting a yellow under surface of the hindwing with reduced 
dark markings, I unfortunately only know from the descriptions and figures. I was therefore unable to dis¬ 
tinguish them more accurately in the review and can merely repeat here the most important statements of 
the descriptions. 
S. bouvieri Mab. (= philotimus Plotz, motozioides $ Holl.) (76 e; the original figure of philotimus Plotz). bonvieri 
Forewing with two hyaline dots in the discal cell and one each in 2, 3, 6 to 8, 11. Plotz in his description 
does not say anything about the dark submarginal dots surrounded with a light colour on the forewing above.
