39. Genus: ( yniaroa limps. 
Hind tibiae with 2 pair of spurs; forewing without an accessory cell, 10 forked with 6 to 9, rising before 
vein 7; in the hindwing 6 and 7 rise from the same place. 
€. leptopepla Pimps. Body yellowish, mixed with a darker colour, tibiae and tarsi with black rings, leptopcpl.i. 
Forewing yellowish, powdered with black. Subbasal line indistinctly undulate with a more distinct black spot 
at the costal margin. Antemedian line irregularly dentate, distally convex. Median line with a black spot at 
the costal margin, then indistinctly undulate. Postmedian line undulate, slanting as far as below vein 6, then 
inwardly curved; beyond it a similarly running line. Subterminal line indistinct, undulate. Hindwing golden 
yellow, with a dark spot on the cross-vein and an indistinct subterminal line. $ more brown, particular^ in 
the hindwing. Expanse: 38 to 46 mm. Basuto Land, Cape Colony. 
40. Genus; Portliesaroa gen.nov. 
Hind tibiae with 2 pair of spurs. In the neuration similar to Porthesia , but in the habitus more similar 
to Leptaroa and others. In the hindwing one vein is absent (3 + 4 being fused); in contrast with Porthesia , 
the posterior angle of the cell is very much produced, 6 + 7 rise on a long pedicle from the anterior angle 
which is still far before the centre of the wing. The costal margin of the forewing ist hardly convex, in Porthesia 
very convex. Type of the genus: aureopsis Pier. 
P. aureopsis sp. n. (28 e). Habitus similar to that of Laelia aurea Janse from South Africa. Head aureopsis. 
and thorax above brown, abdomen orange, beneath whitish. Fo^ewing greyish-brown, the markings dark 
brown, indistinct. Traces of a subbasal dot below the cell and one on the cross-vein, nebulous antemedian 
and postmedian bands, behind the latter band a row of dots, a marginal line interrupted light by the veins. 
Hindwing and under surface of both wings deep orange-yellow, apex of forewing dark brown, interrupted orange 
by the veins. Madagascar. $ type from Diego Suarez in the Tring Museum. 
P. lacipa sp. n. (28 e). Body spotted white and black, abdomen golden yellow with black dorsal lacipa. 
spots, ends of tegulae orange. Forewing white with a subbasal, antemedian and postmedian transverse row of 
black dots, behind the latter a dark shadow and some spots, at the margin a series of internerval spots. Hind wing 
yellow. Forewing beneath blackish-brown. <$ type from Loiodorf, Cameroon, in the Berlin Museum. 
P. noctua sp. n. (28 d). Body similar to lacipa, forewing brownish-white, with a dark brown spot noctua. 
at 14 of the costal margin and % of the hind-margin, an antemedian dot, transverse line, and blackish submarginal 
spots and marginal line. Hindwing yellow. type from Loiodorf, Cameroon, in the Berlin Museum. 
41. Genus: IJasychoproctis gen.nov. 
Hind tibiae with 1 pair of very long spurs, antennae of $ similar as in Dasychira strongly pectinate, 
palpi straightly porrect, projecting a little beyond the frons. Forewing without an accessory cell, 11 rises from 
the cell, 10 forked with 7 to 9, rising before 7, 6 from the same place as the pedicle. In the hindwing 3 + 4 
and 6 + 7 forked; vein 5 in both wings rather indistinct, rising almost midway between 4 and 6; the genus 
is an intermediary between the Lymantriidae and Noctuidae, though the whole habitus is like that in the Lyrnan- 
triidae. 
D. dubiosa sp. n. (22 f). Forewing red-brown, base white, behind it a red-brown basal area oblicpmly dubiosa. 
defined by a dark line; postmedian line blackish; a red-brown streak from the cell-end to the costal margin 
before the apex, a feeble submarginal line, besides this the anterior part of the wing is white, the posterior 
part wood-coloured brown. Hindwing greyish-white. Madagascar. 3 $$ from Betsileo in the Berlin Museum. 
42. Genus: Suarezia gen.nov. 
Hind tibiae with 2 pair of spurs, palpi and antennae as in the preceding genus. Forewing without an 
accessory cell, vein 11 separate, 10 forked with 7 to 9, rising behind 7, 6 far separated from the pedicle. In 
the hindwing 3 + 4 on a long, 6 + 7 on a short pedicle, 5 rises in both wings considerably above 4, though 
nearer to 4 than to 6. 
L. btpimcta sp. n. (21 c). Body brownish-grey, forewing white, thickly powdered with brownish-grey, bipuncia. 
so that in fresh specimens only the antemedian line, the postmedian line at the costal margin, an area around 
the limbal line, and a fine submarginal line remain white. The antemedian line is at the hind-margin turned 
very much distally, just like the postmedian line which is broadly thickened blackish between the veins 2 and 5, 
the limbal line is composed of dots, at the margin a fine black lines formed of streaks. At the cell-end 2 black 
dots. Hindwing pale yellowish-grey, in the distal half darker. 5 $$ from Diego Suarez, Madagascar, in the 
Tring Museum.
