second line indistinct, rather excurved, grey sometimes faintly 
whitish-edged posteriorly ; a variable blackish mark on terminal

HAPLOCKYTIS, n. g. 
Face rounded ; tongue developed. Antennae |-(?). Labial palpi 
moderate, curved, ascending, second joint not reaching vertex, 
thickened with appressed scales, slightly rough anteriorly, terminal 
joint nearly half second, rather slender, pointed. Maxillary palpi 
short, ascending, filiform. Forewings 2 from 4, 3-5 rather approxi¬ 
mated at base, 7 curved and approximated to 8 towards base, 
8 and 9 stalked, 10 closely approximated to 8. Hindwings without 
cubital pecten ; 2 from |, 3-5 closely approximated basally, 7 out 
of 6, anastomosing with 8 to j. 
Perhaps allied to Behimena. 
Haplochytis crocochalca, n. sp. 
2 . 27 mm. Head, palpi, thorax orange. Forewings somewhat 
elongate-triangular, costa posteriorly gently arched, termen rather 
obliquely rounded ; orange at base, becoming lighter posteriorly and 
especially in disc; a shining violet-bronzy terminal fascia, slightly 
sprinkled grey, on costa occupying ^ of wing, narrowed gradually 
to half that width at tornus, anterior edge concave : cilia pale violet- 
bronzy. Hindwings pale orange; a light violet-greyish narrow 
terminal fascia, attenuated to a point before reaching tornus ; cilia 
pale greyish, on tornus and dorsum pale orange. 
Belgian Congo, Katanga, Lakando, November (C . Bey del) ; 1 ex. 
(Belg. Cong. Mus.). This species so closely resembles the figure of 
Sylepta solilucis Hamps. (Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond. 1898, pi. xlix, 13) 
from New Guinea (I do not know the insect), that it is difficult to 
believe there is no relationship, but the present species is no Sylepta. 
TAUROMETOPA, u. g. 
Frons greatly swollen, globose-conical, smooth-scaled, eyes greatly 
enlarged, globose, nearly approximated on crown, crown rough- 
scaled between them ; ocelli posterior ; tongue short. Antennae j, 
filiform, simple. Labial palpi moderate, curved, ascending, second 
joint rather thickened with short rough scales, terminal joint rather 
short, about half second, loosely scaled, tolerably pointed. Maxillary 
palpi rather long, descending, appressed, reaching base of labial. 
Hind tibiae smooth, middle-spurs long, outer | of inner. Forewings 
2 from 3-5 rather approximated, 6, 7 rather approximated from 
near angle, 8 and 9 long-stalked, 10 from near 9, 11 from |, straight. 
Hindwings without cubital pecten, cell |, transverse vein obliquely 
angled, 2 from |, 3-5 nearly approximated, 7 out of 6 near origin, 
anastomosing with 8 to
