GORGOPIS. By M. Gaede. 
aUicola. G. altkola Aur. (80 h) has short dark brown wings. Abdomen at the base and the beginning of the 
hindwing with yellow hair. Thorax and palpi blackish-brown. 32 mm. Kilimandjaro. 
abboiiii. G. abbottii Holl. (80 li). Body and wings very pale brown, at the margins pale yellowish, with a silky 
gloss. The original figure is surely marred, but it shows that it is a light, relatively long-winged species, so that 
1 presume my figured specimen from a series of Abyssinians to be this species. The $ is just as large, with 
scarcely narrower wings, the antennae half as long pectinated as in the <$. 45—50 mm. East Africa, Abyssinia. 
The specimens quoted as abbottii from the Kilimandjaro are, according to my specimens from that district, 
extremely short-winged and presumably libania. 
The following species more or less marked. 
Costal margin of forewing darker than the rest, before the distal margin dark spots. 
plurhna- G. plurimaculata Warr. (80 li). Forewing greyish-brown. Costal margin spotted dark. The somewhat 
cutaia. darker area is bordered by a line extending from % costal margin about vertically to vein 2 and then to the 
base. From the apex to % inner margin a mottled dark band. Thorax as dark as the costal margin, abdomen 
and hindwing as the main part of the forewing. $ 38 mm. Cape Colony. 
grisescens. G. grisescerts n. sp. (80 li). The dark brown costal margin only extends to the lower basal ray of the 
cell and to the base of vein 8, then along the latter to the distal margin. In the cell above the base of vein 
2 a somewhat dark, light-edged spot. From about y 2 the inner margin to the centre of vein 6 a curved row 
of light-edged spots on a greyish-brown ground and a row of oblong marginal spots, also light-edged. <$ 32 mm. 
Cape Colony. Type in the Berlin Museum. 
Marking radially striped. 
aHiludinis. G. altitudinis Le Cerf. Thorax dark brown. Forewing earth-brown with a yellowish-white line through 
the centre of the cell. Below and behind the cross-vein lighter. Hindwing greyish-brown, abdomen reddish- 
brown. $ pale reddish-brown. 34—52 mm. Kilimandjaro. 
built ri. G„ butleri Dew. (80 g). Similarly coloured. The light basal ray wedge-shaped almost to the distal 
margin, at the cross-vein interrupted by a dark spot. Below the base of the cell a larger spot and behind it 
a streak from the base of vein 2 downwards. Before the margin a light notched line. $ 38 mm. Cape Colony. 
zelleri. G. zelleri Dew. (80 h). Dark chocolate. The light radial streak is narrower, forked behind the cell, 
almost divided by a sjDot at the cross-vein. Below the cell as far as the base of vein 2 a broader light band. 
45 mm. Cape Colony. 
olivaecono- G. olivaceonotata Warr. (80 g). Greyish-brown. At the costal margin blackish spots and transverse 
icdu. rows 0 f olive brown spots. The white radial band is broken up into 3 spots, besides a white streak below the 
cell. A fine white streak below the base of the costal margin, fine white dots at % costal margin and before 
the distal margin near vein 4. Hindwing greyish-brown, at the apex spotted dark. $ 32 mm. Cape Colony. 
The original figure shows short-combed antennae. The whole sketch strongly recalls Dalaca holophaea 
and limbopunctata , so that the species probably also belongs to them. 
The following species are more radially striped. 
intervallata. G. intervallata Warr. (80 h). Thorax olive brown, abdomen lighter. Forewing creamy white. At the 
costal margin, in the centre of the cell and at the inner margin olive brown. From there to vein 4 the veins 
are broad olive brown, above it only finely so, with a submarginal band of spots almost to the costal margin. 
Hindwing at the costal margin and apex as well as at the veins brown, otherwise as forewing. $ 32 mm. 
Cape Colony. 
fuscalis. G. fuscalis Jarise. Thorax dark brown, abdomen yellowish-brown. Forewing greyish-brown, at the 
costal margin darker. The bands pale yellow. A band at the lower cell-margin as far as vein 4, where it is 
widened, narrow between veins 4 and 5. Another band above the basal ray in the cell, and between veins 5 
and 7 interruptedly continued. Above it short light stripes. Hindwing greyish-yellow, costal margin and veins 
darker. 22—25 mm ( ?), larger than caffra. Transvaal. 
leucopeiala. G. leucopetala Meyr. Similar to intervallata. Ground-colour dark brown, costal margin and forewing 
darker. Marking white. Below the base of the cell only 2 white spots separated by a dark one. The cell only 
above its lower edge white. Behind the cell only at the upper angle a light spot, not so extensively light as in 
intervallata. Behind it small light spots between veins 2 and 8, between 5 and 7 a larger one, below 2 a very 
small one. Besides small marginal dots. Hindwing dark brown. 24 mm. Pondoland. 
'pholidoia. Go pholidota Meyr. also resembles intervallata. Dark brown, at the costal margin of the forewing 
darker. In the cell the two light streaks of intervallata. Below the base of the cell only 1 light spot. Between the
