Odites holocitra, n. sp. 
$ . 31 mm. Head whitish. Palpi whitish-yellow. Thorax 
pale yellow. Forewings moderate, costa moderately arched, apex 
rounded-obtuse, termen rounded, rather oblique'; 2-4 closely 
approximated from angle, 7 to apex ; pale lemon-yellow : cilia con-

Cameroons, Bitje, Ja 11., 2000 feet ' (Bates) \ 1 ex. 
Odites obumbrata, n. sp. 
<$ . 18 mm. Head pale yellowish, face whitish-tinged. Palpi

apex ; stigma small, fulvous-ochreous, second cliscal followed by a 
faint cloud of similar suffusion, plical faint, obliquely beyond first

Natal, Durban, bred November (Platt) ; 1 ex. The circum¬ 
stances are just those of the original type, and I have no doubt 
that this is the other sex of the same species, but the difference in 
shape of wing is curious and unusual.
