DEILEPHILA. 

 Here I), esulae Boisd. is not a species, but one of the hybrids between 

 D. eupkorbiae (Linn.) and B. hippopkaes (Esp.). 



Deilephila wilsoni s]>. uov. 



Hitherto a single species only of this genus was known from the Sandwich 

 Islands and named by Dr. A. G. Butler Deilephila calida {Ann. Nat. Hist. [5], 

 vii., p. 317 [1881]). In l'^90 after Mr. Scott Wilson's return from these iblands 

 I received from him a few insects, among which were several D. lineata (Fabr.), one 

 D. calida Butl., and a specimen of a new species which I now have much pleasure 

 in naming after him. 



Forewings greyish brown with three blackish bands, having more the aspect of

DUPO. 



One new species. 



Dupo domingonis sj). nov. 



Nearest to Dupo linnei (Grote and Kob.), but has several very sharply defined 

 differences. 



Forewings in i>. linnei are marked by a distinct lavender grey border along the 

 outer margin, and the pale transverse band extends from the apex of the wing to the
