C. clarivenata Front (16 d), described as a Chora, is evidently another of the outliers of (Jolochora, with riarirrmati. 
the 1st and 2nd subcostal well stalked and the tibiae not hairy. Antennal pectinations reaching t(j near apex. 
Fovea present. Very distinct in the rather dark brown colour and yellowish white lines and veins. Upper 
Kasai River, 1 q. 
C. indivisa Front (18 b), from Sao Thome, was separated from divisaria by the longer antenna, with huHvijia. 
about 42 joints pectinate, 10 not so, the pectinations themselves longer, and by the somewhat less deeply ex- 
angled postinedian of the forewing; hindwing and underside on an average rather darker than in divisaria. 
A variable series of 7 dS collected by Mr. Tams leads me to doubt whether it is more than, a race, antemedian 
on the whole less oblique, median indicated at least by dark vein-spots. 
C. divisaria Walk. (= acutangida Warr.) (16 e). Very variable in size and coloration, but generally dhisariu. 
easy to recognize by its shape, its well-differentiated pale (white or yellowish) median area and the strong out¬ 
ward projection of the postmedian. Striicture about as in ynonograymnaria, from which it is best distinginshed 
by the postmedian line and most of the other characters mentioned above under ansorgei. The larva, according 
to Platt, feeds on Royena villosa and Combretum gueinzii. Blown larvae from U. F. Leigh (Congella) — pro¬ 
bably correct though he was not always reliable — recall the typical section of Ecfrojns but are somewliat more 
elongate; face rather flat; body with a slight ridge dorsally and a pair of small humps on the 6th abdominal. 
Natal (loc. typ.) Ziduland and Transvaal. — ab. crassilineata Front, founded on a C from Barberton and a $ crassilincaia 
from Durban, is distinguished by the intensification of the black lines throughout. — acygonia Hnips., a acygoyiia. 
from Bangueolo district, N. E. Rhodesia, is probably also a mere aberration, the colour contrasts not very 
strong, the postmedian line complete but not thickened, on bot wings with the angle very acute. — separataria sepamtarla. 
MdscM. (= basilaria Mab., rufilimes Warr.) (16 e). I am not sure whether the forms of divisaria from Tropical 
Africa (Gambia to Cameroons and even Kenya) are separable inter se, or indeed whether they are always se¬ 
parable from the Natal race, but if they are, the above names are available for the West African (Gold Coast, 
Assinie and Warri respectively). On an average they are less large than the typical form, sometimes much 
smaller. — chresima subsp. nov. C —‘^1 mm, $ 54 mm. Very distinct in coloration, entirely lacking the red- chreshna. 
brown shades; the pale parts with weak brown suffusion, basal area of forewing and both distal areas with 
the irroration and suffusion olive-grey, strongest in the C<S\ midcostal spot in the large; Inndwdng wdth 
the angle of the postmedian line not acute. Angola; Amboim district (Dr. K. Jordan); Quirimbo, 75 km. E. 
of P. Amboim, 300 m, 2 CCI Fazenda Congidu, 700—800 m, 1 $. 
C, melancheima sjj. n. (18 c). At first sight very like a small (37—38 mm) divisaria, wdth sharp colour meJanchei- 
contrasts; structure agreeing essentially, except that the first two subcostals of the forewdng are wnll sejiarate 
at their origin. Wings purer wdiite but (at least in the type form) wdth more copious irroration and wdth indica¬ 
tions of a dark streak or longitudinal suffusion in the median area and extending beyond the postmedian; a 
weak reniform cell-mark outlined; median area narrow, the antemedian more bent inward near costa and 
angled outward near the cell-mark, the postmedian much less angled than in divisaria. Hindwdng with cell- 
mark striguliform, conspicuous, iiostmedian complete, crenulate, not particularly irregrdar. Ivory Coast; 
Bingerville (G. Melolt), type d' in Tring Museum, paratype in British Museum. Also a somewdiat less irrorated 
C from Old Calabar in the latter collection. 
C. hegemonica Front (18 c). Palpus shorter than in divisaria, tongue present, though rather short and hcgemonica. 
very slender; structure otherwise similar to that of divisaria, wdiich it also somewhat approaches in size and 
design. 1 suspect, however, that it may be nearer to simnlatrix. Rnw^enzori. 
C. burgeoni Front, from W. Ruw'enzori (Kalonge, 1 C), is probably nearest to hegemonica (18 c), the hurgeom. 
underside — as in that species, but not in simv.latrix — strongly marked. Smaller (45 mm), less broad-wdnged, 
w'armer brown, the outward angle in the postmedian further w'eakened on both wings, on the forewing forming 
a moderate curve, on the hindwing a scarcely perceptible one. Femora hairy; foretibia strongly tufted, nidtibia 
somewdiat hairy. 
C. opisthommata sp. n. (16f). Expanse 40—50 mm. Palpus short. Forecoxa heavily clothed in front, oplsthom- 
tibia not exceptionally clothed; femora somewhat hairy. First tw'o subcostals of forewdng moderately stalked. maia 
Scheme of colouring much as in divisaria, but the shape, the cleaner whiteness of the ground-colour and the 
sharpness of the cinnamon outer band give somewdiat the impression of a gay Neocleora and this is enhanced 
by the presence of a large, slightly or moderately wdiite-pupilled or grey-pupilled cell-spot on the hindwing. 
Underside irregularly strigulated and suffused wdth grey, the cell-spots strong, the postinedian line discernible. 
Perinet, E. of Tananarivo (N. and G. Olsoufieff), 6 d'J' in the Tring Museum. 
C. disgrega sp. n. In structure closer to divisaria (16 e) but with 1st and 2nd subcostal w'ell free; antenna disgrega. 
rather less short, pectinate nearly to apex. Expanse 45 mm.' Forewing with apex and termen more rounded,
