:5l. Elodina hypatia Feldei-. 

 A series of nine specimens from Biak, Mansinam, ami lluniholdt Bay. 



32. Elodina bouruensis \\allace. 



A series of both sexes, which agree with specimens in my collection captun'd and 

 named by Mr. Wallace. 



33. Terias virgo ^\■allace. 



34. Terias puella Boi.sil. 



I have much doubt whether this species is distinct from the jireceding. It is 

 rather larger. 



3,5. Terias hecabe Linn. 



The specimens in this collection are probably identical with T. dloerm Wallace. 

 Some of the females are white, others tinged with yellow, others lemon yeUow, 

 showing that no reliance can be placed upon Wallace's ground for distinguishing it 

 from T. hecabe. 1 quite agree with his remark that the infinite varieties of T. hecabe 

 cannot profitalily be separated. 



The specimens are from Korrido, Mansinam (the female with a dark patch 

 near the apex of the anterior wings on the underside), Salwati, Jobie, Yamma (all 

 females, dusky white), and Humboldt Bay (lemon yellow). 



3(i. Terias blanda Boisd. 

 One specimen only, very close to ."\Ir. Distanfs figure of T. valllvolam Butler ; but 

 on the underside, at the apex of the anterior wings, there is an indistinct rufous 

 brown patch. 



37. Terias pumilaris I'.utl. 

 One specimen only, nfcmali/ froui .lol)ie. 



38. Terias sp. ( ? ). 



I am unable to identify this. On the upperside it resembles T. sridkur Don. 

 and T. austndis Wallace ; but on the underside there is an entire absence of 

 markings, as in T. inanaiu Butl. and T. venata .Moore. The viale is pale lemon 

 yellow, and the female is dusky whitish yellow. It is smaller than any of the 

 above-named species. A specimen of each sex is in the collection. 



39. Eronia argolis Feld.

40..Nectaria durvillei Boisd. 

 There are two forms of this species, a goo.l series of each. The paler form is 

 from Biak, and agrees very closely with Hoisduval's figure; but the dark band of 

 black spots which obliquely crosses the wings from near the middle of the costa to 

 the outer angle is somewhat narrower, and that part which lies within the cell does 

 not extend so far down it towards the base. The dark form is from Mansinam, and is 

 the variation named .V. seh-armsis apud Dr. Staudinger.
