0. guttulata Aur. (76 i) is similarly coloured. Forewing at the costal margin greyish yellow and the guttulata. 
inner margin hued with bluish grey. From the base to % of the length of the wings with red-hrown reticulate 
lines and yellowish-white spots in them. On the hindwing similar, without a bluish-grey inner margin. The 
dark reticulate lines only extend to little more than the centre of the wing where they are distinctly cut off. 
Body coloured like the wings. 28 35 mm. Tanganyika, Transvaal. 
b) Antennae with o n e r o w of pectinations. 
0. serraticornis Warr. (76 h). Quite similar to Rhod. opalinula and nudicornis, but the thorax is also serralicor- 
red-brown. Lines with a leaden gloss, in the marginal area less pink. Only discernible by the distinctly uni- 
pectinate antennae of the <+ 24—28 mm. Togo, Central Africa. 
4. Genus: Canaca Wkr. fund Warr.) 
Separated from Rhodoneura by the <$ antenna showing but 1 long row of pectinations. Type: semites- 
sellata Wkr. from Borneo. 
C. janenschi Gaede (76 h). Thorax and forewing dark rusty brown. At the costal margin yellowish spots, janenschi. 
from which light bands proceed to the lighter inner margin. Hindwing rusty yellow with brownish fine lines. 
Both wings at the distal margin narrowly blackish, fringes white. $ 16—18 mm. East Africa. 
5. Genus: Strigliua Guen. 
Distinguished from Rhodonzura by the position of veins 9—11 in the forewing, arising much nearer to 
the base than in Rhodonzura. Type: scitaria Wkr. from Indo-Australia. 
S. rothi Warr. Forewing orange golden. Veins and transverse lines deeper orange, at the costal margin rothi. 
metallic black. The dark median band interrupted, before it in the cell and the submedian fold fine hyaline 
spots. A curved black line from % of the costal margin to the distal margin near vein 3. The black marginal 
line at the ends of the veins and the fringes orange. Hindwing paler, the reticulated lines lighter orange. The 
hyaline spots before the median band more distinct, and another spot behind it. $ 22 mm. Niger District. 
S. guttistigma Hmps. Body and forewing pale red-brown, with numerous indistinct dark streaks and gutiisiigma. 
an indistinct interior and median line, behind it blackish-brown, with a grey gloss almost to the distal margin. 
In the distal area between veins 7 and 1 a reddish-brown spot with 5 white dots at the margin. Hindw r ing 
ochreous brown with dark lines, with an irregular red-brown median band, ending very narrow at the inner 
margin. $ 32 mm. Niger District. 
S. eguttalis Gaede (76 i). Similarly coloured. On the forewing an interior and median dark band, eguttalis. 
obliquely outwards to the inner margin, edged with black. At the cross-vein a reniform macula surrounded by 
black. Marginal area darker brown with dark lines, with a grey gloss. Hindwing with traces of 2 bands near 
the base. ^ 26 mm. Ogove. 
6. Genus : ISGoumsi Wkr. (Hypolamprus Hmps.) 
Neuration as in Rhodoneura excepting veins 8+9 being stalked in the forewing. Type: dilecta Wkr. 
from Indo-Australia. 
B. minutula Saalm. (76 h). Straw-coloured with a somewhat darker costal margin on the fore wing and minutula. 
fine dark brown reticulated lines. An interrupted median band hardly discernible, its anterior portion almost 
triangular, the posterior portion rectangular. 15 mm. Madagascar. majuscula Gaede (76 i). Larger. Median majuscula. 
band hardly interrupted, its anterior portion owing to a distally projecting lobe quadrangular, the continuation 
only about half as broad. On the lighter under surface besides two interior dark bands, an H-shaped dark spot 
above the interior angle and a subapical small spot present. Hindwing in both forms above finely checquered 
dark, beneath the median band is represented by a spot behind the cell and before the centre oft the inner 
margin. 20 mm. East Africa. It may be identical with hamatipex Hmps. described as Rhodoneura. 
B. verticalis Warr. (76 g). Reddish-brown. Forewing with a dark brown marking in a vertical direction, verticals. 
At the base 1 or 2 indistinct lines. Close before the centre a band and 2 exterior narrower bands, the second 
of which is interrupted below the centre. At the centre of the distal margin a shadow and before it a fine line. 
Hindwing with a few fine lines and a shadow at the centre of the distal margin and anal angle. $ 16 mm. 
Niger District. — This may be B. ohscuralis Hmps. from India, which is said to occur also in West Africa. 
In East-African specimens, which I range here, of the first band behind only the edge is present, the tw r o 
exterior lines begin as long narrow triangles, the continuation is somewhat distally removed at about vein 3. 
$ 16 mm. East Africa.
