towards the inner margin. Some dark patches traceable behind the apical Hne. Hindwing with the same 
broad dark marginal band as in raonoplarieta. 45—50 mm. From Uganda,, described according to a couple. 
47. Genus: Eiicliclisenia Hmps. 
Palpi erect, but not so extremely long as in Pamchalciope. Tibiae of ^ long-haired, the middle tibiae 
v. ith a hollow and a hair-pencil, less hairy in the 9. Spines only on the middle tibiae. Beside 5 South Asiatic 
resp. Papuan species (see Vol. XI) there are only two African ones, very unlike each other, the first resembling 
a Parallelia. the second more like a Pamchalciope. Type: mygdon Cr. from India. 
E. erecta Hmps. (30 b). Body dark red-brown. Forewing blackish brown as far as the exterior hne, 
dark brown behind it with a violet reflection. Interior line yellowish white, straight, somewhat inward. Ex¬ 
terior line finely white, sharply extra-angular at vein 6, then inward, slightly compressed in the middle, edged 
rusty red outside. A dark line bent downward from the apex to the angle of the exterior line, inwardly in¬ 
distinctly bordered with dark. A light dentate line behind the exterior line, the points filled inside with dark. 
Hindwing dark without any marking. 30 mm. East Africa, Xatal. 
E. delta Bsd. (— crestonion Sn.) (30 a). Thorax and forewing dark chocolate brown, somewhat lighter 
only at the costal margin. A strong white line from the base near the costal margin to the distal margin at 
the anal angle. A white line at the anterior edge of the cell, beginning somewhat distant from the base, as 
long as the first line, both connected by a third line ending pointedly below. The narrow light distal margin 
is divided by a dark line. Hindwing lighter reddish brown, paler in the d' at the base. 28—32 mm. Very com¬ 
mon in Ea.st Africa, besides in South Africa, in ^Madagascar and the adjoining islands. 
48. Genus: Hypaetra Ga. 
Palpi very long. Anterior tibiae long-haired, only the middle tibiae spined. The only African species 
shows the middle tibiae widened with a long hair-pencil. 8e\'eral species in the Indo-Australian Region, 
among them the type; noctuoidts Gn. 
H. ethiopica Hrn/ps. is rather .strongly built. Thorax and forewing dark brown, paler in the marginal 
area. Interior line black, undulate, outward as far as the submedian fold, then very obliquely inward, broadly 
blackish before it. Brownish ochreous on its outside, extending far outward in the cell, otherwise narrower. 
Median line double, dark, indistinct, outward as far as the ujjper cell-angle, then dentately inward. Exterior 
line black, parallel with it. a dark brown band behind it. Submarginal line dark, dentate, parallel with the 
distal margin, edged with light Vjrown in.side. with .such .sjjots outside at the co.stal margin. Hindwing dark 
brown, with short white lines near the anal angle. 42—44 mm. West Africa. Uganda. 
49 . Genus: Remiodes Hrcip-s. 
The only species of this genus has a conical frontal process and bipectinated antennae, which is rare 
in this subordinate family. Palpi obliquely projecting. Middle and hind tibiae .spined. 
R. remigina Mah. {= pectinata Hrn/ps.) (30 b;. Thorax and forewing dark red-brown with a violet 
reflection. Interior band blackish, obliquely outward, .strongly projecting inward in the submedian fold, 
sharply edged. A median band. dark, obliquely outward, distinct only at the costal margin. The reniform 
macula is a large indistinct dark ring, blackish behind it as far as the exterior line, a similarly large indistinct 
ring, indented outside, is below the reniform macula. Exterior line blackish, outward as far as vein 7, then 
slightly undulated, parallel with the margin inward. Submarginal line indistinct, dark, dentate, blackish 
before it at the costal margin. Hindwing yellow, broadly brown at the margin, abdomen likewise yellow. 
40—45 mm. Togo. Xigeria. Uganda. East Africa. Madagascar. The beautiful species is apparently widely 
distributed, but not common. 
50 . Genus: 3 Iocis Hbn. 
Under this name not being used in Vol. HI Hamp.son has united about 30 species, the palaearctic 
forms of which were treated as CaanindM Mr., Pdrj/rrda Gn., and Rmdgiri Gn., and to which also irugalis F. 
belongs, being distributed over several continents and often doing considerable harm to all kinds of cultivated 
plants in America, especially to ginger. Europe is the only continent, where the genus is not represented. 
The Mrjds are real gra.s.s-loving AYcOrae, sitting, like the European Gonosp. glyphicrx,. on blades and suddenly 
flying up. when they hear the step of an approaching person, only to drop into the grass again a few steps 
further. All the sjjecies exhibit an earthy brown colouring. Some come to the light in the evening in astounding 
numbers. Antennae of the G only ciliated. Apex of forewing rather pointed. Legs thin, tibiae of ^ long-
