black discai spots; forewing besides with a black costal-marginal band, a black dot in the cell and a black trans¬ 
verse spot at the cell-end; the discai spots of the forewing are 6 (in I b to 6) and are situate a little nearer 
at the margin than they usually are, those of the areas 4 to 6 are contiguous and are situate in a slanting, 
straight line extending towards the centre of the margin; hindwing with 6 separate discai spots, in the centre 
also outside of the basal area with a distinct blue reflection. Beneath the hindwing, as well as the costal margin 
and apex of the forewing are of a rusty brown; forewing otherwise reddish-yellow with the usual black spots 
and close before the margin with a row of black submarginal dots; hindwing almost unmarked, but generally 
with a bent row of white postdiscal dots. Cape Colony, in the south-western parts. 
Ph. chrysantas Trim. Of this species only the 0 is known and has been described. Wings above light chrysantas. 
orange-yellow with a narrow black marginal band and black discai spots in the usual number and arrangement; 
the marginal band is tapering off posteriorly and at the apex it encloses a rounded white spot; hindwing above 
orange-yellow with or without discai spots and with a narrow dentate marginal band; the species is particularly 
distinguished by the broad white-spotted fringes. Beneath the hindwing and the costal and distal margins 
of the forewing are light grey with the usual spots some of which are filled up with gold. Cape Colony. 
Ph. lycegenes Trim. (70 i). Wings above orange with a coppery lustre, at the base slightly darkened, lycegenes. 
at the margin with a narrow black, more or less dentate marginal band; hindwing otherwise usually unmarked; 
forewing with a basal dot in 1 b, a dot in the cell, one at the cell-end and an almost coherent row of discai 
dots, all of which are black. Forewing beneath orange-red, at the costal margin and apex grey with the same 
spots as' above and besides with small black submarginal dots. Hindwing beneath yellowish brownish-grey 
with small basal dots and streak-shaped discai dots being united to a line. Natal. 
Ph. lyncurium Trim. (70 i) only differs from lycegenes by the marks stated in the review. Hindwing lyncurium. 
beneath with more or or less distinct orange submarginal bows. Only found in Caffraria on the Tsomo River. 
Ph. aethon T> * im . (70 h). Wings above orange-red with a black marginal band and 5 or 6 similar aethon. 
discai spots; forewing besides with a transverse spot at the cell-end, a basal spot in 1 b and generally also in 
the centre of the cell; forewing beneath besides with submarginal dots in 1 b to 7: hindwing beneath light 
rusty brown with several silvery spots. Transvaal. 
Ph. felthami Ti 'im. (70 h). Wings above orange-red with a black central spot and black discai spots felthami. 
which are normally arranged; forewing besides with an equally broad black marginal band enclosing small 
marginal spots of the ground-colour; hindwing instead of the marginal band with separate black submarginal 
dots; margin of hindwing at the end of vein 4 distinctly angular. Hindwing beneath Isabel-coloured grey with 
large, ring-shaped, but indistinct markings. Amongst the downs on the Minzenberg River in Cape Colony, 
discovered by Mr. H. L. L. Feltham in 1900; it is very swift on the wing and always settles down on shrubs, 
not on the ground. 
Ph. chrysaor Trim. (70 i) is very much like the following species and only differs by a narrower chrysaor. 
marginal band above, a more lustrous ground-colour, a more extended anal angle of the hindwing, and particularly 
by the different position of the discai spot in 1 b on the forewing. Cape Colony, Caffraria, and Natal. 
Ph. zeuxo L. Wings above lustrous golden orange-red with a black central spot and discai spots being zeuxo. 
normally arranged; forewing besides with a black, equally broad marginal band and a small dot in the discai 
cell; hindwing with a narrow, at the apex broader marginal band, and distinct black submarginal spots. Fore¬ 
wing beneath reddish-yellow, at the costal and distal margins dark grey, spots distinct. Hindwing beneath 
grey with rather indistinct spots. Cape Colony, environs of Cape Town. 
Ph. oreas Trim. (70 i). Wings above orange-yellow, at the base dusted with blackish; the dusting oreas. 
on the hindwing extends to the centre or the discai spots; both wings above with discai spots and a marginal 
band; the latter is on the forewing broad and coherent, on the hindwing narrow or broken up into spots; fringes 
of the wings spotted white at the ends of the veins; forewing beneath orange-yellow, normally spotted and 
with distinct submarginal spots; hindwing beneath rust-coloured with numerous silvery, angular or streak- 
shaped spots or markings. Natal hitherto only met with on a little area in the Mountains. 
21. Genus: Crudaria Wallengr. 
I have formerly combined this genus with Phasis, but here I quote it not without diffidence as a separate 
genus. Crudaria is distinguished by the forewing showing only 11 veins, vein 9 being absent and vein 7 termina¬ 
ting into the apex or into the costal margin close before the apex, and by the hindwing being lobate at the 
anal angle and provided with an extremely fine small tail at the end of vein 1 b. Both marks may occur separately
