52. Catopsilia crocale crocale (Cram.). 



Papilio crocale Cramer, Pap. Exot. vol. i. pt. v. p. 87, t. 55. ff. C. D. (1775) (East Indies). 



This insect is very variable, but in spite of its great range has developed into 

 only fonr subspecies. The S 3 have two chief forms : a yellow one, S forma 

 Jiavescens Fruhst., and a form with the outer half of wings white, c? forma alcmene 

 Fabr. In the more western portions of its range three principal ? forms occur: 

 ? forma jagurtha Cram, with narrow margins to the wings and more or less white 

 hindwings ; ? forma crocale Cram, with yellow hindwings and wider margins ; 

 and ? forma latilimbata Fruhst. with a lot of sooty black on the wings. 



2 c?(? (c? forma alcmene), 1 c? (c? forma Jiavescens), Buleleng, North Bali, 

 January— April 1911 ; 2 ? ¥ ($ ioTms.jugurtha), Bali, 1912. 



53. Catopsilia crocale rivalis Fruhst. 



Catopsilia crocale /lava J forma rivalis Fruhstorfer, Seitz Grosssclim. Ercle, vol. ix. p. 163. t. 68. 

 f. d. 4 and fE. d. 2-4 and e. 1-5 (1910) (Moluccas and Papua). 



Herr Fruhstorfer applied the name Jlava Butler to the subspecies of crocale 

 reaching from the Koluccas to the Solomons, and named the Celebes race celebica. 

 He had evidently never looked up Butler's original description, or he wonld have 

 seen that Butler's name flava was given to specimens obtained by A. R. Wallace 

 in Celebes in 1858. I find that no other names have been given to the Molncco- 

 Papuan race except the three ? ? forms riealis, crocalina, and jugiirthina Fruhst. 

 As I do not wish to create a new name, I apply the name rivalis to the whole 

 subspecies as it stands first on the page.

54. Catopsilia scylla scylla (Linn.). 



Pajnlin scylla Linnaeus, Mus. Loude. Ulr. p. 242 (1764) (Java). 



1 ¥, Kintamani, Bali, 4000 ft., February— March 1911. 



55. Catopsilia scylla moluccarum Frahst. 



Catopsilia scylla moluccarum Fruhstorfer, Seitz Grosssclim. Erdc, vol. ix. p. 165. t. 68. c. fit. 4. 5 

 (1910) (Moluccas).

 650 metres, 1912. 



56. Terias hecabe sankapura Frahst. 



Terias hecabe sankapura Fruhstorfer, Seitz Grossschm. Erde, vol. ix. p. 167 (1910) (Bawean, Java, 

 Bali, and Lombok). 



Terias hecabe is the most puzzling and variable insect. It varies locally, it 

 has three seasonal forms which, however, all iutergrade, it varies individnally, and 

 it varies both in colour and shape, and in some cases is sexually dimorphic and in 

 others not. I have four local races to enumerate in this paper, but I shall only 

 treat of them under their sub.specific entities, as it would carry too far to split them 

 up under the host of aberrational and formal names they possess.
