iriarking. — citrinula Sfrd. has the thorax and forewings yellow, the latter somewhat green except at the base 
and costal margin. Marking also greenish. 24 mm. South and East Africa, Madagascar. 
3. Genus : Clilorozada Hmps. 
Proboscis normal, palpi thin and very long. Antennae of ^ ciliated. Abdomen with 2 small tufts. 
Forewing: veins 3—5 near the lower cell-angle, 6 below the upper angle, 7 from the angle, 10 + 8 -|- h stalked. 
HindAving normal, vein 8 from near the Imse of the cell. Type; verna Hnvps. All the species from Africa; ex- 
cejding metahuca. only 1 specimen is known of each species. 
Ch. pyrites Hmps. (18 d). Thorax pale green, abdomen flesh-coloured. Forewing green. Interior line 
Avhite, edged with black in front outside, more incurved in the cell and submedian fold. Exterior line also 
Avhite, edged with black inside in the anterior part, still more undulate than the interior line. Submarginal 
line Avhite, dentate. HindAving flesh-coloured. $ 26 mm. Gold Coast. 
Ch. prasina Hmps. (18 d). Thorax and foreAA'ing yelloAA'ish green, abdomen and hindAving flesh-coloured. 
Interior line black, finely edged A\ith black inside, almost straight, someAA'hat oblique. Exterior line edged 
AA’ith AA'hite outsitle, projecting outAA'ardly in the cell, then someAA’hat steeper to the inner margin. Traces of 
a dark submarginal line. HindAving someAAdiat darker above the inner margin. $ 28 mm. Gold Coast, Cameroon. 
Ch. metaleuca Hmps. (= esmeralda Hmps.) (18 d). Thorax and foreAA’ing bluish green. Abdomen and 
hinclAA'ing reddish yelloAA’. Interior and exterior lines of foreAA’ing AA’hite, both proceeding from a black spot at 
the costal margin. The interior one almost straight, somewhat obliquely outwards. The exterior one uni¬ 
formly slightly excAirved, only slightly concave in the submedian fold. A fine black dot at the cross-vein. The 
$ shoAA’s the thorax and foreAvdngs red-broAvn. Other forms of the $ are the folloAA’ing; — metaleucana Strd. 
ForeAA’ing AA’ith AA’hite dots at the tAvo transverse lines in the submedian fold. — purpureofusca Strd. Median 
area of foreAving suffused Avith violettish broAvn. — olivaceoviridis Strd. Basal and marginal areas of foreAving 
oliA’e green, median area Auolettish broAA’ii. — 18—20 mm. Central, South and East Africa. Besides there are 
tAvo cou]des from East Africa before me, in AA'hich the AA’hole foreAA’ing exhibits a Auolettish broAvn hue. 
Ch. verna Hmps. Thorax and foreAA’ing })ale bluish green, abdomen broAAn. The marginal area on the 
foreAA’ing is slightly dusted AA’ith broAAU. Interior line black, erlged AA'ith AA’hite inside, shaped as in metaleuca. 
At the cross-Amin likeAA’ise a black dot. Exterior line black, edged AA’ith Avhite outside, undulate, oblique as far 
as A’ein 6. then Amrtical, thus somewhat different from metaleuca. Submarginal line finely black, undulate, one 
AA’hite dot each before and behind it at the costal margin. HindAAdng pale brownish ochreous, darker at the 
margin. 20 mm. Mashona Land. — Only the ty])e seems to be knoAvn, ca])tured by Marshatl near 
Salisbury. 
Ch. endophaea Hmps. (18 e). Thorax light sap-green, abdomen brown. ForeAA’ing pale sap-green. In¬ 
terior line AA’hite, edged AA’ith broAvn outside, oblique, concave in the middle. The median area behind it at 
the inner margin AA’ith a broAA’ii spot. The usual black dot at the cross-vein. Exterior line Avhite, edged AA’ith 
broAA’ii inside, someAA’hat more exciU A’ed than the interior line. Submarginal line vertical, formed of black 
dots. HinclAA’ing broAA’n. 22 mm. Gold Coast. 
Ch. purpurea Kenrick (18 d). Body and AA’ings violettish grey. ForeAA’ing dark A’iolet behind the in¬ 
terior line, only the apical area lighter again. The interior line is fine AA’hite, dentate, similar to the other 
species. Taao dark dots in the cell. Exterior line fine AA’hite, someAA’hat oblique, hardly A’isible. Submarginal 
line of () dark spots in the light a])ical area. 26 mm. Madagascar. 
4. Genus: rioplioerama Hmps. 
Excepting the pointed apex of the foreAA’ing, the exterior is similar to the Genus Chlorozada. Palpi 
likeAA’ise A’ery long, but erect and very hairy behind. ForeAA’ing AA’ith the normal areole. Neuration of hindAving 
like that of Chlorozada. Type; phoenicocMora Hmps. Only three African species are knoAvn. 
L. phoenicochlora Hmps. (18 e). Thorax yelloAA’ish green, abdomen reddish. ForeAving yelloAvish green, 
the costal margin finely yelloAv. Interior and exterior lines Avith a black dot at the costal margin, then in¬ 
distinct, dark, excurved. A black dot at the cross-vein, near the apex 3 AA’hite dots at a red streak. Sub- 
marginal line shadoAvy. HincRving Auolettish red. — In postalba cj' Strd. the hindAving is Avhite at the base. 
— mediopurpurea Strd. sIioavs the median area of the foreAvmg lined Avith Auolettish grey and speckled broAvn- 
ish. — On the contrary, medioclara Strd. is Avhiter in the median area. There occur also specimens in Avhich 
the foreAA’ing is broAvnish grey, somewhat reddish at the base. 26—28 mm. West and South Africa. 
L. hemipyria Hmps. is similar to the preceding species, but the abdomen is fiery red, black at the end. 
ForeAA’ing also similar, but an iron-broAvn spot at the anal angle, the interior side of Avhich is someAvhat extra- 
angidar in the submedian fold. Hinchving fiery red. J mm. Gold Coast.
