unable to ascertain its generic classification and I am therefore leaving it here. Thorax pinky Avhite. Fore¬ 
wings with ochreous pink ground dusted with grey. The antemedian consists of 2 arcs and is faintly darker. 
There is an indistinct central shade and traces of a grey orbicular stigma. Reniform whitish with faint, delicate 
black circumscription; posterior to it in a wide arc, a fine black postmedian that describes a deep concave arc 
towards the base between nervuces 1 and 3, projecting in a pointed dentation outwards on vein 1. A subterminal 
is discernible through the contrast between the grey wing surface and the narrow pale marginal area, it pro¬ 
trudes outwards on veins 8 and 4. Hindwings pale brownish grey with fine marginal line and light fringes.

lines vinous brown, undulate and dentate, the outer one bending inwards below the cell. The central area 
between the two is paler vinous brown with a comma-shaped discal spot. The undulate subterminal is deep 
reddish brown and intersects at outer margin a nebulous patch of the same colour. Hindwings similar, but 
the anterior transverse line is missing, the basal area is not ochreous; the discal spot is black and there are 
black dots at margin. Fringes ochreous yellow with deep red-brown markings. Wing expanse: 18 mm. Hondo

L . velocissima Trti. is midway in size between velox and velocior. The ground colour inclines towards velocissima. 
a rich brownish, transverse markings are not black, but a deeper brown than the ground; the marginal area is 
duskily grey, there are two darker nebulous patches behind the postmedian, below costa and above inner margin. 
The transverse lines commence at darker brown, heavily marked dashes on costa. Orbicular stigma is a distinct 
fuscous dot. Hindwings similarly brown and grey mixed, almost whitish at anal angle with 2—3 darker dotted 
transverse lines. Wing expanse: 16—18 mm. Cyrenaica (Derna) in October. 
L. tarda Trti. The author gives this name to a species illustrated as velocior Stgr. by Oberthur-Culot tarda. 
(Et. Comp. Tab. 407, No. 4136). This may he merely a race of velocissima from Algeria, but it appears te be 
new. The specimen is still smaller than velox , similarly fuscous in colouration and with 3 jet black wide trans¬ 
verse lines; basal area and inner margin rather more heavily dusted with grey, the hindwings also are widely 
suffused with grey at inner margin. Underside of hindwings is almost completely white, only the inner margin 
is somewhat dusted with reddish. In velocissima, on the other hand, it is brownish pink, dusted with brown. 
L. amaoica Osth. apparently also closely resembles velocior, forewings are remarkably wide and pointed amanica.
