324 NOVITATES ZOOLOOICAE XXVI. 1919. 



Rio has three representatives of the first and two of the second. But to 

 emphasise the strong S.E. Brazihan character of the papiUos one has only to 

 look at the torquatus group of the second division or fluted papiUos. Here the 

 .subspecies of torquatus is polyhius, as in the south. Hectorides occurs, which 

 is a wholly southern species, and himeros, another wholly southern species, 

 occurs only in a slightly altered subspecies — baia. Another wholly southern 

 species is scatnander, and this occurs without even subspecific differences. In 

 the protesilaus group it is curious no representative is recorded, and one might 

 suspect the occurrence of one or two species. On the whole, there perhaps 

 may not be much to be discovered, especially in the rather dry district of Ceara, 

 but to the west of Pcrnambuco, with its more humid air, there must surely be 

 species to be discovered, while to the south towards Bahia interesting discoveries 

 will certainly be made.
