Show 68 DR. W. J. HOLLAND ON THE AFRICAN [Jan. 14, side there is a well-defined row of pale submarginal markings the primaries, and a less well-defined series of similar markings on the secondaries. The wings in this sex are broader, more rounded, and less produced at the apex of the primaries than in the male, and the abdomen is stouter and shorter than in that sex, not reaching beyond the anal angle of the secondaries. Expanse, 3 26-29 mm., $ 32-34 mm. Hab. Valley of the Ogove, Cameroons, Sierra Leone. I name this species in honour of my little friend Albert Good, the only child of Dr. A. C. Good, one of the heroes of the Dark Continent, whose death last November, a few days after his return from a long and trying journey into the interior of the Cameroons, has filled the hearts of a host of friends and admirers with profound sorrow. " Bertie," though not yet in his teens, is represented in my collections by numerous specimens taken by his own hands, and is no doubt the youngest entomologist who has thus far collected amidst the jungles of " Gorilla-land." 227.

This species, for the identification of which in my collection I am indebted to Mons. Mabille, is quite common about Gaboon. Mons. Mabille had affixed the name atimus to several specimens of this species in his collection at the time I visited him. They were undoubtedly arela. 228. B. ARGYRODES, Holl. Parnara argyrodes, Holl.
