ELLENBECKIA; BATOCNEMA; BHADINOPASA; LIBYOCLANIS. By Dr. M. Heking. 
plagiata. P. plagiata R. J. Forewing grey, feebly reddish, with a large brownish-black spot in the centre. 
Before the centre 3 indistinct transverse lines, beyond the discal spot two more transverse lines and an oblique 
spot before the apex. Hindwing greyish-brown, basally paler, kinder surface cinnamon-brown with 3 very 
indistinct parallel transverse lines. Expanse: 60 mm. Tanganyika. 
leucophaea. P. leucophaea R. & J. (61 f). Forewing brownish whitish-grey; antemedian and discal lines double, 
brown, the spaces between them filled up, both being distally convex; a double postdiscal line and a submargial 
line of angular spots. Some indistinct subbasal lines, a white stigma. Hindwing brownish-grey. $ mostly 
less distinctly marked. British East Africa, Betchuanaland. 
16. Genus: J^llenbeckia R. u.J. 
Anterior tibiae with thorns, middle tibiae without thorns, the spurs of the posterior tibiae short. Pulvillus 
and paronychium entirely absent. 
monospila. E. monospila R. ch J. Body smoky grey, beneath almost white, without markings. Forewing above 
grey, without transverse lines, with thin black longitudinal streaks in the cell, one each on veins 3 to 6 from the 
cell half-way to the margin, and one on the basal half of vein 1; a small black stigma on the cross-vein, a round 
black spot before the tornus below vein 2. Hindwing basally whitish-grey, towards the margin darker, veins 
in the discal area deeper brown. Under surface greyish-white. Expanse: 45 mm. East Africa. 
Subfamily: Ambulicinae. 
Last antennal joint short, above densely scaled. 
17. Genus: ISatociiema R. u.J. 
Middle tibiae without thorns, hind tibiae with 2 pair of spurs, anterior tibiae ending in a distinct thorn, 
frenulum present. Apex of forewing truncate, somewhat emarginated. 
cocquereli. B. cocquereli Bsdv. (61 e). Forewing with 4 darker spots at the costal margin, hindwing with a uniformly 
broad dark marginal band and 2 dark transverse lines before it. In the nomenclatural race from Madagascar 
comorana. the ground-colour of the hindwing is chrome-coloured, in the Comoro-race: comorana R. <£• J. orange-yellow; 
the latter race has shorter and broader wings, the light areas of the fore wing are more pinkish tan-coloured. 
The basal spot at the costal margin is smaller, the brown submarginal line is less curved, rather straight between 
veins 3 and 7. In a form from the Isle of Aldabra the forewing shows a fifth costal-marginal spot in the centre 
of the last third, the dark marginal band of the hindwing ends at vein 7 and does not reach to the costal margin: 
alddbrensis. aldabrensis Auriv. 
africana. B. africana Dist. (61 e). Forewing with but two dark spots at the costal margin, hindwing sulphur- 
coloured, with a marginal band narrowing down very much from the apex posteriorly, and a greenish-brown 
hook from the tornus. Transvaal, German East Africa. 
18. Genus: Rliacliuopasa Karsch ( Rhadinopsis Ky.). 
Anterior tibiae without thorns, not terminating in a thorn, hind tibiae with 2 pair of spurs, middle 
tibiae without thorns; hind tarsi half as long as the cell of the hindwing; the claw-joint of the tarsi with a 
pulvillus, the first joint of the anterior tarsus normal with long spurs. Frenulum present. Apex of forewing 
roundishly truncate. 
hornimani. Rh. hornimani Drc. ( = udei Karsch.) (62 a). Forewing olive green, with 2 silvery grey transverse bands 
crossed by green lines and being convergent behind. Hindwing brownish-red, towards the margin darker, the 
discal lines in front indistinctly waved. West Africa. 
19. Genus: liibyoclaiiis R. u. J. 
Middle tibiae with thorns at the apex, hind tibiae with 1 or 2 pair of spurs, the longer one of them 
is shorter than the first tarsal joint, twice as long as the shorter one which is somewhat shorter than the width 
of the tibia, pulvillus and paronychium present, the latter on each side with 2 appendages. Frenulum present. 
The margin of the wings is not indented. The genus differs from the Indian Clanis in its smaller palpi and 
shorter spurs of the middle tibiae. 
bicolor. L. bicolor Roth-sch. (62 b). Forewing unicoloured reddish-brown, with a darker brown spot at the apex, 
without any other marking. Hindwing dark pinkish-red. Beneath the basal half of the forewing is pinkish red; 
from the base of the cell a dark brown line to the apex of the wing; hindwing with a pinkish red spot at the 
anal angle, Body reddish-brown. Middle tibiae without a white streak on the upper side. Expanse: 96 mm. 
Sierra Leone. 
karschi. L. karschi R. & J. (62 a). Forewing with a strongly produced apex, olive green with 2 or 3 brownish- 
green antemedian lines; in the basal half dusted with dark grey, also in a spot below the costal margin and 
one at the costal margin before the apex. Stigma small and white. Hindwing pinkish red, at the margin broad 
olive brown, with a round black basal spot. Fore wing beneath of a bright olive green, basally-centrally pink, 
costal-marginal spot and marginal spot greyish-white. Hindwing beneath paler, with a red spot along the anal
