E. borguensis Hmps. (4e). Spots arranged as in albicincta , but all the hyaline areas much smaller, 
the small subbasal spot on the forewing is entirely absent. Abdominal rings 1 and 3 to 5 orange. Nigeria. 
E. ansorgei Rothsch. (4 e) also lacks the subbasal spot on the forewing, but the other spots are larger, 
of a more lustrous white, whilst those in the hindwing are rather of the same size. Abdominal rings 1 and 3 
to 5 orange. Uganda. 
E. myopsychoides Strd. (4 f) resembles less a Myopsyche than a Ceryx albimacula, but it is distinguished 
by the much longer distal margin of the forewing and the absence of the white transverse stripe at the base 
of the abdomen. The black triangle on the tornus of the forewing is very large, and so is the black triangle 
of the apex of the wing. From West Africa. — ab. albifrons Strd. has a white frons, and the hyaline spot 
in the cell of the forewing is smaller. -— ab. typica Strd. (5 a). Forewing only in the basal third hyaline, the 
whole rest brownish-black with a fine hyaline patch in the centre. Hindwing margined with black. According 
to Gaede (i. 1.) from the same patria. 
9. Genus: Stietoiiaclia Hmps. 
Separated from the Dysauxes, which the insects on the whole resemble by the brown spotted forewings 
and the yolk-coloured hindwings, by the hindwing having only 5 veins instead of the 6 in Dysauxes. The genus 
is entirely confined to the Island of Madagascar, where 6 species occur. 
S. amplificata Saalm. (4e). Forewing with 5 yellow spots, hindwing with a small anal spot before 
which the margin is somewhat concave. 
S. anastasia Oberth. (4 f) is the largest species. Abdomen with a dark dorsal streak. The central spots 
of the forewing are confluent. 
S. niyodes Guer. (= zygaenoides Mob., agnes Oberth.) (4 f). Smaller and with narrower wings than 
anastasia ; hindwing at the cross-vein and distal margin irregularly black-spotted. 
S. reducta Mab. (= anapera Mab.) (4 f). Abdomen not orange, but blackish-brown with orange 
bands on the rings 2, 3 and 0. Near the base of the forewing a yellow cross-band, in the disc a large white 
area and in the apical part 2 smaller ones. 
S. maria Oberth. (5 a) is separated by the abdomen being yellow with black crossbands on each ring. 
Forewing with a spot in the cell near the end. — ab. hova Strd. has a uni-coloured yellow abdomen, the basal 
area of the wings being cpiite yellow, the black areas tarnished with yellowish. 
S. marietta Oberth. (5a). Abdomen yellow; hindwing with a black marginal band; forewing with a 
yellow subbasal spot below the cell. A small hyaline spot in the cell-end; behind the centre a yellow transverse 
spot. 
10. Genus: Pseailoiiaelia Btlr. 
Distinguished from the preceding genus by the subcostal vein of the forewing having 4 (instead of 5) 
branches. 
Ps. puella Bsd. (5 a) is very similar to Nadia parvigutta (Vol. II, pi. 9 i), but the marginal black in 
the hindwing is more irregular. -— minor Rothsch. is still smaller, and of the small spots on the forewing there 
are but faint traces. South East Africa. 
Ps. fasciata Gaede sp. n. (4 f). ,,Similar to puella , the spots in the forewing more yellow and flown 
together in pairs. 20 mm. German East Africa.“ (M. Gaede, ined.). 
Ps. bifasciata Aur. (5 a). Like fasciata, but the distal orange band is only half as broad, and the 
central band is divided into a large lower spot and a very small upper one. East x4frica. 
11. Genus: Mieronsu'lia Hmps. 
Distinguished from Pseudonaclia by the veins 4 and 5 not being forked, but rising from the cell. AH 
the 6 species known occur in Madagascar. 
M. muscella Mab. (4g). Hindwing of d very small. Forewing with 5 yellow spots, the two basal 
ones of which are confluent. — In ab. flavia Oberth. the yellow spot in the submedian area extends so far towards 
the margin, that it is confluent with the yellow spot in the cell-end. 
M. tenera Mab. (4 f) is smaller, forewing with 6 spots, the subbasal and median ones of which are 
confluent forming transverse bands. 
M. leopardina Rothsch. (4 g). The 5 spots of the forewing are separated, much smaller than in the 
preceding ones; hindwing dark brown with a small yellow spot in the disc and at the anal angle.
