Mr. R. Illidge, who has bred large numbers of this and the preceding species 

 from larvae on the Moreton Bay fig, has obtained intermediate forms. He 

 could detect no differences in the larvae, and suggests that both forms are one 

 species. This seems to me hardly possible; perhaps the intermediates are 

 hybrids.
