Extract

1. M. Brucei.

Male.—Expands from 1.5 to 1.7 inch. Upper side brown-black, marked with spots of red and yellow in transverse bands; there are three well marked varieties, in one of which red predominates, sometimes almost to the exclusion of yellow; in another red and yellow, much as in other allied species; on the third much yellow, very little red; in all the spots are small, so that the black surface is more exposed than in many species.
