disco-cellular a narrow black streak. Postmedian line very indistinct, dark, with white dot on costa, shaj)ed sijnilarly 
to that of the other species. A white suhmarginal line is indicated. Hindwings vdtli vestiges of an arched dark 
antemedian line, with a similar line distally of centre and a dark suhmarginal line. 28 mm. Nigeria. 
T. latebra Hmps. (33 b). The largest species. Body and wings dark reddish brown. Antemedian line lakbm. 
of forewings black, incurved in cell, excurved below and at inner margin. Reniform stigma with black eflge 
and a few Avhite dots. Median line rather diffuse, blackish, extending over the renifoim stigma. Postmedian 
line double, black, dentate, incurved below vein 4 and conjoined below end of cell by an indistinct ring. Sub¬ 
marginal line ochreous yellow, black-brown inwardly. On hindwings median line is l)lackish, indistinct; post¬ 
median line is double, dentate. Suhmarginal line grey with blackish edges on both sides. 48—54 mm. South 
Africa. 
9. Genus: Tiiviodes 
Palpi similar to those of Lopliotavia. Thorax and abdomen devoid of tufts. Forewings with acute ajjex. 
Outer margin not undulate, but impressed in centre in cj. Vein 6 of forewings below uj)per angle of cell. Type: 
discomma Hmps. 
T. excisa Hmpts. (33 b). Body and wings grey-brown. Antemedian line of forevdngs indistinct, brown, cxcisa. 
incurved in cell, excurved above and beloAv. In centre of cell a white dot. Median line behind the cell, dark, out¬ 
wards to veur 6, then undidate and inwards. Postmedian line angidated outwards to vein 7, then inwards, 
more oblique below vein 3. Hindwings Avith a dark streak at disco-cellular. The median and postmedian lines 
are dark, curved. In $ the postmedian line on forewings is excrnved to vein 6 and parallel to median line. A 
dark spot on costa before apex. 50 mm, $ 46 mm. Nigeria. 
T. congenita Hmpis. (33 c). Body arrd wings paler grey-broAvn vuth violet sheen. The lines of foreAvings congcnila. 
are brown. Antemedian line narrow, curved. Besides the AAdiite cell spot, there are 2 further spots at disco- 
cellular. The median line indistinct, excurved behind the upper angle of cell, more boldly inwards at inner margin. 
The postmedian line AAdth an AA'hite spot on costa and oiiter AAdrite edge, from vein 7 doAvn inAA'ards and undulate. 
HindAvings Avitli broAA'n lines. Median line narroAv, oblique, postmedian line AAdiitish oiAtwardly. Suhmarginal 
line diffuse, the last two lines incurved beloAv the cell. 36 mm. One from Nigeria. 
T. tamsi n. spec. (33 c). The (J resembles a dark excisa. On foreAvings there is a white dot in the cell tamsi. 
and another at loAver angle of cell. No difference is discernible in the formation of the lines in the dark ground 
colour to those of excisa. On hindwings the 3 lines are more approximated to one another, they are straighter, 
the median and postmedian lines Avith fine white edges. Outwardly of the centre of the postmedian line there 
is an irregular yelloAv spot. Outer margin from anal angle to vein 4 is suffused AA'ith bluish. The $ also resembles 
the excisa $, hoAvever, the median line is acutely angidated iiiAvards behind the cell. Postmedian line is more 
excurved at vein 7, thus being similar to the <^. Hindwings are not darker than foreAvings. Median and post¬ 
median lines are closer together, the bluish sheen at margin is fainter than in A- T5 mm. A pair from the Gold 
Coast. Type in the British Museum. 
T. subjecta Wkr. (32 a). Similar to the indian julvescens Hmps., but the median and postmedian lines suhjcda. 
of forewings are closer together and dentate on both Avings. Ground colour is generally darker ochreous red- 
broAvn. An aberrative specimen has the same shade of ground colour as julvescens, but on foreAvings behind the 
postmedian line there are bold dark spots and on hinclAvings 2 roAVS of smaller dots. 35—40 mm. Congo region, 
Natal, Rhodesia. — africana Strd. is more richly suffused Avith broAim than the main type form. airkana. 
T. discomma Hmps. (33 c). Body and Avings grey-broAvn with reddish sheen. Lines broAvn. Antemedian discomma. 
line on foreAvings undulate, incurved in cell. Here also a white cell spot, but Avith dark broAvn disco-celhdar 
dusted Avith bluish AA^hite. Median line indistinct, undulate, excurved behind the cell, then iiiAvards, touching 
the spot (only in the type). Postmedian line outAvardly white at costa, excuived between costa and vein 4, 
then iiiAA^ards. HinclAvings with 2 dark dots at disco-celhdar. Median line dentate, postmedian undidate. In o 
the outer margin of foreAvings ist not indented. 35—40 mm. West Africa. 
10. Genus: ISareia Wkr. 
Palpi shorter than hitherto, the 2nd segment densely hairy. Thorax and abdomen Avithout tufts. Only 
one species. 
B. incidens Wkr. (33 c). Body and wings reddish broAvn, the lines dark broAvn. Antemedian line on inddcns. 
forewings forming 3 undulations, straight, somewhat oblicpie. In cell a large Avhite spot. Reniform stigma 
black, with a Avhite dot beloAV. Median line anteriorly oblicpie, intersecting the stigma, then incurved, undulate, 
to centre of inner margin. Postmedian line outwards to vein 6, forming a point, parallel to margin to A^ein 4, 
then inwards, dentate, with yellow dots outwardly on the veins. At margin below apex a- black ocellus, Avith 
2 small spots above it. The adjoining submarginal line commences at a Avhite sjiot. HinclAvings paler. Ante-
