Show 1896.] BUTTERFLIES OF THE FAMILY HESPERHD^E. 51 description seems to me to point to a form belonging to some genus. 167. C. (?) BRUNNEOSTRIGA, Ploetz. Cyclopides brunneostriga, Ploetz, S. E. Z. vol. xlv. p. 392-3 (1884). Hab. Pundo Ndongo (Ploetz). This is probably not a true Cyclopides. 168. C. ROMI, Robbe. Cyclopides romi, Robbe, Ann. Soc. Ent. Belg. vol. xxxvi. p. 133 (1892) Hab. Congo. I cannot make much out of the brief description of Dr. Robbe. The description would apply perfectly, so far as it goes, to Cyclopides syrinx, Trim. 169. C. AMENA, Grose Smith. Cyclopides amena, H. Grose Smith, Ann. & Mag. N. H. (6) vol. vii. p. 127(1891). Hab. Madagascar. This species is compared by its author to C. pardalinus, Butl., which Mr. Watson has referred with its allies to the genus Ampittia, but which, after examining the types, I prefer to restore to Cyclopides. 170. C. RHADAMA, Boisd. Steropes rhadama, Boisd. Faune Madgr. p. 69, pi. ix. figs. 10, 11 (1833). Heteropterus rhadama, Kirby, Syn. Cat. p. 623 (1871). Cyclopides rhadama, Mab. Grandid. Madgr. vol. xviii. p. 343, pi. lvi. a. figs. 2, 2 a (1887). Ampittia rhadama, Watson, P. Z. S. 1893, p. 96. Hab. Madagascar. 171. C. PARDALINA, Butl. Cyclopides pardalina, Butl. Ann. & Mag. N. H. (5) vol. iv. p. 233 (1879). Heteropterus pardalinus, Mab. Grandid. Madgr. vol. xviii. p. 345, pi. hi. figs. 7, 7 a (1887). Ampittia pardalina, Watson, P. Z. S. 1893, p. 96. Hab. Madagascar. 172. C.
