Eu. affinis n. sp. (28 f) in the habitus somewhat recalls Porthesia tabida. Body ochreous-yellow, affinis. 
forewing ochreous-yellow, with 5 bands of blackish irroration, separated by fine whitish lines, parted light 
by the veins, not quite reaching the costal margin. Hindwing and under surface paler ochreous. Cameroon. 
^ type from Lolodorf in the Berlin Museum. The $ which probably belongs hereto exhibits the separating 
lines between the 2nd and 3rd, and 3rd and 4th bands in front combined in a light spot before the cell-end. 
2 $ from Bingerville in the Tring Museum. 
34. Genus: I^aelioproctfs nov. 
Hind tibiae only with terminal spurs, palpi short, forewing without an accessory cell, 11 from the cell, 
10 to 7 forked, 10 rising behind the centre of the distance between 7 to 8 + 9. In the hindwing 3 + 4 and 
6 + 7 forked. $ with an anal tuft as in Euproctis. 
L. iaeniosoma n. sp. (22 a). Body yellowish-brown, abdomen yellow, with black rings. Wings ochreous taeniosoma 
yellowish-brown, hindwing lighter. Togo. 2 $ from Bismarckburg in the Berlin Museum. 
35. Genus: Kuju’ocjis Hbn. 
Forewing without an accessory cell, vein 10 rises from the pedicle of 8 + 9, behind the origin of vein 7. 
Veins 3 + 4 of hindwing from the same place or forked, as well as 6 + 7. Hind tibiae with 2 pair of spurs. 
In this genus also many of the species combined by Swinhoe as Nygmia have been mentioned. It is easily possible 
that a number of them belong to other genera, such as Lacipa etc. The species gracilis, florida, and nobilis 
exhibit an accessory cell in the forewing. Vein 11, however, rises separately, so that they may belong to Laelia. 
Eu. fasciata Wkr. ( = torrida Dist., squamiplaga Wkr., 1 susanna Stgr.) (22 a). Wings of B pale fasciata. 
yellow, of the $ dark ochreous-yellow', forewing with 2 distally curved, almost parallel transverse bands; the 
space between them is more or less powdered with black; such powdering often also near the apex and anal 
angle. — In angolae B.-Bak. ( — arnpla Swh.) the discal space between the two bands is filled up with pink angolae. 
and only margined with black, other markings being absent. Angola. — In stellata Dist. we notice of the red- stellata. 
brown markings only a spot at the cell-end, the black median band being as in fasciata. Transvaal. — In plana plana. 
Faivc. there is a black spot on the side of the hind-margin, one at the cross-vein, and one each in cell 2 and 5. 
In the wdrole of Africa, presumably extending into the palearctic region. According to Swinhoe, also susanna 
Stgr. (Vol. II, pi. 21 i) belongs hereto. 
Eu. rufopunctata Wkr. (22 a). Forewing purely white, with indistinct 3 or 4 pale yellow transverse rufopunda 
stripes, a red dot at the cell-end, one before the margin between the veins 5 and 6, and two at the tornus. ia 
Forewing white. Under surface white. South Africa. 
Eu. haemodetes Hmps. (22 a). Wings yellowish-white, forewing with a red, black-edged spot at the haemodeics 
cell-end, at the tornus, and sometimes below the apex at the margin. Expanse: 34 to 42 mm. South Afuca. 
Eu. incommoda Btlr. Forewing creamy-white, costal margin at the base ochreous-yellow. Hindwing incommoda 
ochreous-yellow, with a whitish costal margin. Body whitish, anal tuft ochreous-yellow. Under surface of 
the wings creamy-white, costal margin of forewing ochreous-yellow. Expanse: 26 mm. Madagascar. 
Eu. sanguigutta Hmps. (22 a). Forewing yellow, with dark yellow antemedian, postmedian, subterminal, sanguigutta 
and terminal bands. At the cell-end a red spot. Hindwing dark yellow. South and East Africa. 
Eu. crocosticta Hmps. Ochreous-yellow, the $ paler, forewing with a red, not black-scaled spot at crocostida. 
the cell-end, without transverse bands. Expanse: 42 to 54 mm. Nyassa and Mashona Land. 
Eu. aureoplaga Kenr. Similar to ochrea Btlr. Forewing ochreous-yellow, hindwing paler, forewing, aureoplaga 
however, with indistinct orange transverse lines, one at the base, two in the discal area, and one before the 
margin. A large reddish spot at the cell-end. Anal tuft black. Expanse: ($) 46 mm. Madagascar. 
Eu. rufiterga Hmps. Head and thorax white, suffused with red, antennal pinnae reddish. Hind legs rufiterga. 
and abdomen white. Forewing white, in the base somewhat reddish; a yellow spot below the centre of the 
cell, some black scales on the cross-vein, and a large black spot on a yellow spot between the posterior angle 
of the cell and the hind-margin. A subterminal dot below vein 8 and one below 6, some black scales above 
the tornus. Hindwing white. Expanse: 26 mm. Gold Coast. 
Eu. mitliata Kenr. Body orange, abdomen whitish-ochreous. Forewing dark orange with bands of miniata. 
pink spots: the first forms a triangular spot at the base, the next consists of 3 irregular spots, then follows 
a postmedian transverse row, finally an irregular subterminal row. Hindwing very pale ochreous. Expanse: 
40 mm (+). — Madagascar.
