A. karschi Auriv. (56 c) is intermediate between Acraea viviana and Acraea cabira and differs from both in having the hindmarginal spot on the upperside of the forewing narrower, of more uniform breadth and not covering the base of cellule 2. The under surface of the hindwing exactly agrees with that of cabira. Is perhaps, as Eltringham thinks, only a form of cabira. Cameroons and British East Africa. [4]
