base of the cell. Costal margin finely black; in avnmtii'pennis (p. 15) it is not Idack. A})ical area black, similar 
to Wey. afhene(3d), with a black lobe and a white dot in it as in aurantiipeiinis. The black distal margin i.s 
continued to the inner margin. Between veins 7 and 4 there is a narrow, little dentate white band in the narrow 
margin. Besides one small sidDinarginal spot each is below veins 4 and 3. Hindwing corres])onding to anjyro- 
gramma Hmps. (4 a), d 60 mm. Lake Albert. 
13 . Genus: Scliaiisia Aarsr/i. 
S. schultzei Atir. has been described as Tnerta, but as it is compared with memnonia and cosmeiica sclmltzci. 
Karsch which are dealt with on p. 16 as Schausia, we also place it there. The whole body is black, the abdomen 
with paii'ed red-browm hair-pencils. Fore wing black, with blue scales at the base and a purely white median 
band from the centre of the costal margin to the inner margin a little behind the centre, about 5 mm broad, 
touching the cell-apex with its inner side. The veins behind it are dusted light blue. Hindwing black, median 
band broad, white, uniformly bent, not reaching the costal margin. $ 50 mm. Congo. 
S. costistrigata B.-Bak. likewise resembles memnonid Karsch. Body black, the dorsiim nut-brown, costi- 
Both wings black with a broad white centre. Forewing with 3 indistinct rows of blue scales, a broad white strujata. 
stripe behind them from the costal margin to the inner margin. From the interior edge of this stripe a subcostal 
stripe extends into the subapical area. It exhibits erect white scales where it crosses the main stripe, it is grey 
behind it in the black area. The veins in the distal area are dusted blue. Hindwing with a very broad white 
median band, so that the base is only black for a short distance. 48 mm. Cameroons. 
14 . Genus: Aegocera Latr. 
Ae. ferrugo Jord. has the size of rectilinea (4 c). Both wings rusty red with yellow fringes. Thorax ferrugo. 
creamy with red-brown lines. Abdomen orange brown with black dorsal spots. Forewing black at the costal 
and inner margin with yellowish-white scales. A yellowish-white faded radial stripe through the submedian 
fold and a similar marginal line. Similar spots near the base of the cell, before the upper cell-angle and behind 
it, the latter luniform. Hindwing somewhat less reddish than the fore wing, traces of a dark brown cellular 
spot. Fringe darker yellow than on the forewing. 36 mm. Abyssinia. 
Ae. brevivitta Hmps. The form — rectilineoides Bothsch. differs from the typical form in its yellow hind- recti- 
wings. The distal area and the central spot are red. Nigeria. luieoida 
Ae. naveli Le Cerf. Forewing almost the same as that of trimeni (2 f), hindwing of thomensis (4 cl), ma-eli. 
Forewing brown with two whitish ochreous bands. The one radial band at the lower cell-margin as far as vein 2, 
the other at the cross-vein as far as the base of vein 3. On both sides of the cross-vein short olive streaks and 
a similar one from the apex of the radial band to vein 1. Hindwing dingy orange. Marginal band broad brownish 
black, narrowly continued at the inner margin. Base and costal margin dusted black, a dark spot at the upper 
cell-angle, d' 42 mm. San Thome. 
Ae. anthina Jord. As large as AHtr. menete Cr. $ (3h). Thorax orange with black stripes. Abdomen anihina. 
orange ochreous. Forewing with a maize-coloured interior band, 5 mm broad at the ends, 7 mm in its centre. 
Its interior edge is straight, angled outside below the cell, with a black central spot. A lead-coloured double 
spot in the basal area, a large yellow spot and a small one at the costal margin. A lead-coloured line and a 
rusty red spot between the cell and the inner margin. A yellow comma with a leaden line on either side is at the 
apex of the cell. Behind it a large yellow costal spot 5 mm large. Then follow 2 leaden lines at short distances, 
filled with rusty red, the edge also rusty red. Hindwing ochreous with the usual dark margin and cellular 
spot. Nigeria. 
Ae. comorana Jord. Quite unlike the other species. Thorax brown with Avhite stripes, abdomen orange conwrami. 
with black dorsal spots. Forewing reddish sandy grey vdth black scales. A silvery white line on the cross-vein 
is edged with wood-brown, both enclosed by a blackish-brown ring which is open in front. Basad to it a similar 
ring-spot. A faded white stripe from the base to the centre of the wdng gradually widens, extending uiDwards 
into the cell, downwards to the submedian fold. A faded white stripe behind the cross-vein is connected with 
the radial stripe. Distally to it an indistinct pale olive-red double line. The interior one bent, the exterior one 
straight. The whole wing is sti’ewn with silvery scales. Hindwing ochreous, with a black narrow margin inter¬ 
rupted at the ends of the veins. Distal margin somewhat undidate in both wings. $ 38—47 mm. Greater Comoro. 
15 . Genus: Mitroplirys AMrsc/?. 
M. ansorgei Bothsch. (3 h). Thorax red-brown with white stripes. Abdomen orange with black seg- ansorgei. 
mental margins. Forewing red-brown, with yellowish-white scales at the costal and inner margins. A yellow band
