N. luxuriosa sp. n. (75 c). Similar to elegans, with a broad olive green median band mixed with blackish 
and lead-colour, distally to it a narrow and indistinct transverse line which, in the prolongation of the cell, is 
broadly connected with the median band, besides some green dusting before the apex. Below the apex 2 or 3, 
above the tornus one tiny black dot. Hindwing white, at the apex traces of a blackish marginal line. Body 
whitish, thorax more yellowish. Forewing beneath white with a green costal margin, hindwing white, o type 
from Tabora (leg. A. Reuss) in the Berlin State Museum. 
N. auricincta Btlr. (75 c) (lacides Drc.). Forewing white, with 5 tan-coloured transverse lines, 3 black 
marginal dots at the apex and one at the tornus. Hindwing white; with a narrow brown marginal band. 
Segmental margins of abdomen golden yellow. East Africa. 
N. afflicta sp. n. (75 c). Body wiiite, abdomen somewhat ochreous. Forewing more oblong, with a 
more oblique margin than in the preceding species, dusted with brownish, and with two brownish, strongly 
zigzag-shaped oblique transverse lines which are almost contiguous; towards the base from the inner line an 
oblique streak straight from the inner margin to the cell. At the apex a brown crescentiform spot, similar 
ones at the lower portion of the margin. Hindwing white. Cameroon. Female type from Buea, in November, 
also from Rei Buba in June (Berlin State Museum). 
N. improba sp. n. (75 c). Forewing short and rounded, of a lustrous greyish wiiite, with an irregular 
dark brown irroration at the inner margin near the base, a dark brown indistinct postmedian line being strongly 
excurved in the anterior part, and a dark brown spot at the cell-end. Distal margin fine brown, at the tornus 
somewhat broader. Hindwing wiiite. kinder surface of forewing in the costal half (at the termen broader) deep 
dark brown. Body w'hitish, with brown abdominal tufts. Cameroon. Male type from Ngoko Station in the 
Berlin State Museum. In April. 
N. alianta Karsch (75 c). Forewing brown, with a purple median band which is centrally somewhat 
strangulated, and towards the base defined by a light line, then by a darker line. From its outside at the costal 
margin obliquely to the termination of vein 2 extends a darker brown band which ends in 1 or 2 black marginal 
dots. At the margin below the apex another black dot. Hindwing ochreous, sometimes more or less darkened 
brown. East Africa. 
N. argenteobrunnea Strd. (75 c). Forewing lustrous whitish, with 3 or 4 brown transverse lines which 
are expanded to broad spots at the inner margin, at the tornus 1 or 2 deep brown dots. Hindwing greyish 
ochreous. Spanish Guinea. 
N. quinquestrigata Strd. (75 d). Forewing brownish, at the margin somewhat whitish, with 4 oblique 
dark brown transverse stripes, the two interior ones not reaching the costal margin, the third strongly flawed 
at 1 c and containing a black dot, the fourth slightly curved to the tornus which it does not reach, in some 
places crossed yellow' by the veins. Hindwing dark yellow'. Spanish Guinea. 
53. Genus: I^emboptcris Btlr. 
Antennae plain. Hind tibiae with 2 pair of long spurs. In the forewing 7—9 stalked. In the hindwing 
3 and 4 from the same place, 6 + 7 stalked. 
L. puella Btlr. (75 d). Forewing snow-white, costal margin narrow ochreous, 2 black dots at the apex 
and 2 in the centre, one of which is below vein 2, the other below vein 6. Hindwing pale golden straw-coloured, 
with a blackish apical dot. British East Africa. (Unknown to me.) 
54. Genus: Pachyplilebina gen.nov. 
Antennae to the ends plainly pectinated. Palpi moderately long, slightly upturned, hind tibiae with 2 
pair of very long spurs. In the forewing veins 4—6 rise separated from each other below the upper cell-angle, 
9 + 10 stalked, 11 anteriorly very convex, together with 9 + 10, or on a short stalk. Anterior edge of cell at 
this place as well as the base of the stalk strongly thickened. In the hindwing the cell is only as long as + of 
the wing, 6 + 7 on a short stalk, 8 right behind the base strongly divergent with the cell. Type of the genus: 
P. degenerata sp.n. (75 d). Forewing lustrous loam-coloured grey, with 4 blackish transverse lines, 
the two inner ones in the middle very much broken, the lower portion of the last line adjoining to the margin. 
Hindwing dark grey, fringe speckled lighter. Cameroon. Male type from Loloclorf in the Berlin State Museum. 
55. Genus: Teinorliyuclia Holl. 
Female antennae plain. Palpi very long, projecting snout-like, laterally compressed. Allied to the 
Indian genus Scopelodes. 
T. umbra Holl. Body reddish-brown, palpi dark brown. Forewing brown, with an indistinct dark 
median transverse line and a more distinct one from the costal margin before the apex to the margin above 
the tornus. Hindwing pale reddish brown. All the fringes darker. On the under surface some golden scales 
near the base of the hindwing. Expanse: 42 mm. Ogove. (Unknown to me.)
