I. malgassica Kenr. Body brownish-grey, thorax with a few pink hairs, abdomen yellowish. Forewing malgassica. 
pale brownish-grey with numerous darker dentate transverse lines. Hindwing semi-transparent white. Expanse : 
38 mm. Madagascar. 
I. lata Holl. (26 a). Body light brownish-grey, abdomen whitish, forewing of an almost white ground- lulu. 
colour with fewer though broader brown markings. Brown are the base, a distally convex antemedian line, 
distally to it the whole cellular portion, a very broad postmedian line, a similar submarginal line, and traces 
of a terminal line. The latter three are broken up into spots. Hindwing all white, at the margin with some 
brown dots. Expanse: 39 mm. Cameroon, Ogove. 
86. Genus: Hbn. 
Hind tibiae with 2 pair of spurs, palpi with only two joints. Forewing with an accessory cell. 10 rising 
from it before 7. In the hindwing veins 6 and 7 from the same place, 3 and 4 forked. Forewing of the $ with a 
pointedly produced apex. 
P. pennatula F. (= securis Hbn.) (25 c). Anterior half of the forewing varying from a yellowish pennatula. 
brown to whitish, the posterior longitudinal half bluish-grey, at the hind-margin often brownish and with 
traces of black stripes. Hindwing whitish. Distributed in the whole Indo-Australian region. South and East 
Africa, Cameroon. — Cf. Vol. II, p. 115—116, pi. 22 c; Vol. X, p. 292. 
87. Genus: Terphotiirfx Holl. 
Forewing with an accessory cell, vein 11 rises separately from the discal cell, in the hindwing 3 X 4 
from the same place or forked. Hind tibiae with 2 pair of spurs, anterior tarsi with appressed scales, middle 
tibiae densely clad with long-stalked scales. 
To this genus probably belong also a few species enumerated in the Euproctis. 
T. lanarla Holl. (26 e). Forewing creamy-white, in the centre clouded with brown. Three rows of lanaria. 
dark dots on the costal margin, one beyond the cross-vein, two before the apex. A subbasal transverse line 
and-a subterminal line projecting towards the margin on vein 2 are paler, on the proximal side edged with dark 
brown. At the place, where the subterminal line projects distally, there is a series of black dots, proximally 
defined by yellowish spots; distally to them there are black spots on the fringes. Hindwing pale yellowish- 
white, fringes partly dark brown; in the $ the wing is slightly clouded with brown. Expanse: 25, 9 30 mm. 
Ogove, Cameroon, Fernando Po. Larva with long light yellow hair, dorsally on the segments 4 and 9 
with 2 scale-pencils. On the segments 7 to 10 a large vesicular protuberance. Pupa yellowish-white, bare, • 
lying in a thin web composed of the hair of the larva. 
T. tenuis Holl. (26 e). Forewing whitish, densely powdered with rusty brown, particularly at the tenuis. 
apex and distal margin. A small black dot in the centre of the cell, two similar ones above the tornus. At 
the cell-end a narrow macula shaped like a K. Subbasal and postmedian lines paler. A white spot at the 
apex, followed by some darker crescents, the third of them with a white sagittiform spot. Hindwing purely 
white. Expanse: 20 to 30 mm. Ogove, Cameroon. 
88. Genus: .ILipsirorioniisi gen. nov. 
Anterior and middle tibiae with projecting hairs, hind tibiae with appressed hairs, the latter with. 2 
pair of spurs. Palpi with 3 joints, projecting slightly beyond the head. In the fore wing vein 11 rises separately, 
10 forked with 8 -)- 9 from the accessory cell, behind r ' 2 of the pedicle, 7 separated from the pedicle from the 
accessory cell, 6 separated from it. In the hindwing 6 and 7 are separated, 4 nearer to 3 than to 5. In fresh 
specimens at the tornus a dentiform tuft of scales. Genotype: 
L. convexa sp. n. Body pale ochreous, dorsal tufts at the ends brownish. Forewing at vein 4 with convexa. 
a distinctly prominent margin, brownish-red, at .the base olive-green, above the hind-margin a triangular 
yellowish-white macula crossed by brown, a similar one at the cell-end and the base of veins 3 to 5. At the 
margin some blackish dots. Hindwing yellowish-white. $ type from Lolodorf, Cameroon, in the Berlin Museum. 
L. uniformis sp. n. Margin less projecting, forewing more uni-coloured, macula at the cell-end indistinct, uniformis 
the spot at the hind-margin powdered with dark, hindwing suffused with pale pinkish-brown. $ type from 
Ogruga, Niger, in the Tring Museum.
