420 AMYOPS; GALONA; FENTONIA. By M. Gaede. 
C. rosinaria Hmps. (70 c). Thorax greyish-brown, abdomen yellowish-brown. Porewing greyish-brown 
lines black. A notched subbasal line to vein 1. Interior line double, vertical to the inner margin, almost straight. 
Exterior line notched, outside somewhat lighter. Submarginal band whitish with black spots, particularly 
above vein 2. Hindwing silky white, at the anal angle brown, above it a black double streak. 38 mm. Natal. 
C. maxima sp. n. (70 d). Thorax greyish-brown with a yellowish-green median spot; abdomen greyish- 
brown. Forewing greyish-brown. Subbasal line black, extending to the cell-end, the base of the wing grey. 
Interior line vertical to the costal margin as far as the submedian fold, then removed inwards; before it 2 
parallel dark brown nebulous lines. Cross-vein black. Exterior line almost parallel to the interior line, outside 
edged with white, before it a nebulous line. Submarginal line thick with streaks on the veins, from above vein 3 
somewhat inwardly bent. Hindwing white with the usual spot at the anal angle. 55 mm. East Africa. In the 
hindwing veins 3 -f 4 on a very short stalk. The antennae of the $ are not pectinate to the tips, yet it is very 
closely allied with rosinaria. Type: 1 $ in the Museum of Stockholm. 
C. ochribasis Hmps. Forewing in the proximal half ochreous brown and red-brown, bordered by an 
oblique, curved line. Subbasal and interior lines only marked by spots. An oblong brown spot below the base 
of the cell. The rest of the wing is greyish-brown with a broad white band behind the median line. Exterior 
line marked by brown streaks. Traces of a white submarginal line. Hindwing white, margin brown, at the 
anal angle narrower. 55 mm. East Africa. 
C. plagosa Rothsch. Thorax and abdomen of a reddish wood-colour. Forewing cinnamon-reddish with 
many indistinct brown notched lines. A light green spot below the base of the costal margin. A blackish-brown 
broad faded band from before the centre of the costal margin to the anal angle with a branch to x /± of the inner 
margin, between them grey. A large pale green subapical spot. Hindwing of a brown wood-colour. 47 mm. 
Niger District. 
29. Genus: Amyops Karsch. 
Proboscis stunted, palpi short. Antennae of <$ and $ pectinate almost to the tips. Forewing rather 
long and narrow. Vein 5 rises above the centre, 6 on a very short stalk with 7 -j- 8 -f- 9, 10 forming a long 
accessory cell with the stalk of 8 + 9. In the hindwing veins 3 and 4 almost from the same place, 5 before the 
centre, feebler, veins 6 + 7 on a long stalk, 8 as far as the cell-end close to the cell. 
A. ingens Karsch (= gigas Dist.). Thorax black; patagia white, in front with an angle. Abdomen yellow 
with a black median line and black end. Forewing brown with white stripes, in the middle suffused with bluish. 
Hindwing white, with a very broad black margin. 68—80 mm. From Togo to East Africa, Delagoa Bay, 
Transvaal. 
30. Genus: Graloiia Karsch. 
Proboscis absent, palpi porrect, somewhat longer than in Amyops. Antennae bipectinate almost to 
the tips in both sexes. Forewing broad, vein 6 close below the upper angle or also stalked with 7+8 + 9. 
Vein 10 forms a long accessory cell with the stalk of 8 + 9. Hindwing slightly excurved at the costal margin, 
6 + 7 on a long stalk, 8 in its whole length parallel to the cell. 
G. serena Karsch ( = pyrrhotricha Karsch $) (70 d). Thorax black, patagia pinkish-white. Abdomen 
carmine with black dorsal spots. Forewing brownish black. A radial band above and below the median vein 
to the apex pinkish-white. An exterior band of black spots from vein 4 to the inner margin mostly only in the 
$ well visible. Hindwing white, in the $ at the costal margin and anal angle black, in the $ a broad black 
marginal band. 46—60 mm. Togo, Angola, Rhodesia, East Africa. 
31. Genus: JFeiitonia Btlr. 
Palpi short, erect, abdomen long. Forewing moderately broad. Veins 6 + 10 + 7 + 8 + 9 stalked. 
In the hindwing veins 6 + 7 on a short stalk, 8 close at the cell almost to its end. Antennal pectinations 
of different length. Type: ocypete Brem. from Eastern Asia. The two Ethiopian species do not resemble the 
Indians in the scheme of marking. 
F. xylostola Hmps. Antennae of $ with short pectinations. Thorax and abdomen red-brown mixed 
with white. Fore wing red-brown, densely dusted with grey. Subbasal line of black scales. Interior line of 
erect black scales, in the submedian fold incurved, above the inner margin excurved. Exterior line of black 
scales, at the costal margin and as far as vein 2 excurved, then inwards. A whitish submarginal line and a black 
undulating marginal line are traceable. Hindwing red-brown. 42 mm. Sierra Leone. 
F. corticicolor Aur. Brownish, abdomen at the end paler, greyish-yellow, forewing greyish-brown with 
a blackish-brown marking. At the base of the costal margin, in the cell and below it oblong spots. Median line 
strongly notched, particularly at veins 3 and 6. Exterior band undulating, strongly angled at veins 3 and 4, 
distal margin grey. Hindwing brown. 46 mm, Cameroon,
