As the result of an examination of the typical species of 

 certain genera, we find it necessary to characterise several new- 

 genera in this present part. 



Cyaniris tenella, Miskin. 



Mr. Druce considers our form closer to C. ceyx than to C. dilec- 

 tissima, Druce. The late Mr. de Niceville, who had seen only a 

 female C. tenella, considered it very close to, if not identical with 



his C. ceyx. It is also allied to C, , of which we have a 



male from the Khasi Hills, Assam. 



Danis macleayi, Semper. 



Mr. Druce writes " the types are in very perfect condition, 

 and the checquered cilia are very marked." We have received 

 two males and one female from Cape York which fulfil these 

 requirements. 



Lampides ccelestis, Miskin. 



We have now no doubt that this is the species recorded by 

 Semper as D. aleuas, Feld., of which it is the Australian form. 



Lampides hylas, Cramer, var. 



L. aleuas, Waterhouse (nee Felder), Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. 

 Wales, 1903, p. 156. 



[Both Mr. Druce and Mr. Turner have pointed out to me that 

 I was in error in using L. aleuas for this species, which is the 

 Australian form of the ^' Papilio hylas " of Cramer. — G.A.W.] 



As our material is insufficient and not in the best of condition, 

 we refrain from appl34nf,' any definite name to the Australian 

 form. It is perhaps identical with that found in Southern New 



Guinea, 



Miletus meleagris, Waterhouse. 



Proc. Linn. Soc. N. S. Wales, 1903, p. 270 ($). 



We are now enabled to supply a description of the female, 

 having received, through the kindness of Mr. A. B. Bell, a pair 

 from the Cairns District.
