E. quadripartita Wlr. (15 b). Thorax and forewing -white with blackish markings. Median band some- 
Avhat obliqne, slightly nndulated at the edges. A triangular spot at the margin, with an inward point opposite 
the ceTitre of the cell and below it. Fringe white at the apex. Abdomen and hindwing brownish white. 14 mm. 
The species is widely distributed in India. A specimen is before me from Togo. Its only difference may consist 
in the partly dark fringe not mentioned by Hampson. 
E. expatriata Hm.ps. Body greyish brown. Forewing greyish-brown in the basal half, violettish red- 
broAvn in the marginal half, greyer at the margin. Small black dots at the costal margin at the base. Median 
band dark chocolate, edged black, with silvery lines on both sides, slightly excurved at the costal margin, bent 
inwards below the cell. A fine dark line behind it is bent inwards between veins 5 and 1. Cross-vein black, 
submarginal line grey. Hindwing grey, red-brown at the margin. $ 16 mm. Niger District. 
E. trigonodes limps. Thorax and forewing violettish greyish brown, reddish brown in the marginal 
area. Interior line absent, a black dot in the cell. The reniform mactila is a browm shadow. Median line w'hite, 
obliquely outwards from the costal margin to vein 2, then bent inwards, a dark olive brown triangular spot 
before it. Exterior line somewhat dark, beginning with a spot at the costal margin, extending almost parallel 
with the distal margin. Behind it red-brown as far as the submarginal line which is light, flatly convex in the 
middle, with 2 darker spots behind it. Abdomen and hindwing reddish brown. 22—25 mm. East Africa. 
• E. genuflexa H'mps. (15 b). Thorax and basal half of forewing red-brown, lighter olive brown behind 
it. Interior line with a black dot at the costal margin, dark, indistinct. Median line Avhite, extending as in til- 
gonodes, but somewhat more acutely angled, a dark brown band before it. Marginal area marked as in trigono¬ 
des, more uniformly dark brown at the margin. Hind wing orange. The s])ace before the submarginal line on the 
forewing of the $ is someAvhat fiery red. 22—24 mm. South-West and South Africa. 
E. catoxantha Hmps. Thorax and forewing red-brown; the median area darkest, somewhat lighter at 
the margin. Interior line indistinct, doiible, somewhat oblique. Median line doable, the interior branch extra- 
angular below the costal margin and at the median vein, then excurved, the exterior branch obliquely from the 
costal margin to the lower cell-angle, then bent iivwards. Reniform macida represented by a white streak at 
the exterior median line, a brown triangidar spot behind it. Exterior line edged dark inside, excurved as far 
as vein 4. Then a greyish-white band, a red-brown shadow and the srdAinarginal line which is excurved in the 
middle and at the anal angle. Hindwing yellow. 20 mm. Transvaal. 
E. angulissima n. sp. Thorax and forew ing red-brown. Interior line doxible, dark, strongly dentate. A 
light brown stripe from the lower cell-angle towards the costal margin inwards. Outside of it, at the subcostal 
vein, begins a horizontal light line which is then bent dowm extending almost straightly to the submedian 
fold, then obliquely outwards to the inner margin. This line and the light oblique stripe inside broadly edged 
with blackish bro'wn, the bent light line narrowly edged dark also outside, more broadly so only at the costal 
margin. Then follows a light yellowish browai stripe and an olive brown one with a light border-line outside. 
Submarginal line white, from the costal margin to vein 5 inwards, then widely extra-angular at vein 3, out- 
w'ards again below vein 2, blackish brown before it. Pointed dark triangles at the margin. Himhving orange. 
Fringe grey. 24 mm. Cape Colony. Type in the Berlin Museum. 
E. albifascia Hmps. (15 b). Thorax and forewing red-brown. Interior line indistinct, double, oblique. The 
ring-macula is a pale dot edged dark. Median line black, slightly extra-angidar below the costal margin, some- 
wdiat oblique as far as vein 2, then vertical. Behind it a greyish-wliite band enclosing the reniform macula re- 
Xnesented by a dark sjAut. Exterior line brown, fine, on the wdiite band, slightly excurved behind the reniform 
macula, then straight to the inner margin. Submarginal line fine white, double, short black streaks behind it. 
Hindw'ing orange, with a broad brown margin. $ 22 mm. Cape Colony. 
E. citripennis Hmps. (15 b). Thorax and interior half of forewing blackish-brown, lighter as far as the 
interior line. The latter indistinct, double, vertical. Median line black, obliquely bent inwards below the cell. 
The reniform macula is a browm streak wdth 2 black dots behind it. The latter and. the exterior line on a white 
band. The fine brown exterior line is angled behind the iqiXAer and lower cell-angles, then bent inwards. Mar¬ 
ginal area dark again. Submarginal line white, x>roceeding from a sjAot at the costal margin, irregularly angled. 
Hindwing jAale yellow, brownish at the margin. 24 jnm. East Africa. 
E. decissima Wkr. (= africana Fldr.) (15 b). Thorax and forewing blackish browm. Interior line black, 
double, the branches distantly sex)arated. Median line double, the interior branch uniformly dentate, the ex¬ 
terior one obliquely oifrwards to the centre of the wing, intro-angular in the submedian fold; a white band be¬ 
hind it. A dark streak at the cross-vein with a black spot behind it. The feeble exterior line on the light area 
just as angular as in citripennis. Grey spots at the edge of the white band, then 2 white dentate siibmarginal 
lines. Hindwing brownish, lighter at the base, fringe light. 16—2U mm. South and East Africa. 
E. mianoides Hmps. Body and forewing reddish brown, lighter than in decissima. The light band, is 
mostly not of a x^ure white, more grey. Interior line indistinct, black, double. Median line black, narrowly 
edged Avith dark inside, slightly angled almost ox^x^osite the black dot at the cross-vein, then slightly bent in-
