Of the moths forming liis tribe liomhijcen, Ilorsfield observes: "The next trlbo 

 roni])rises those I'ornis which niidcrgo their metaniorpbosis in a covering, constructed 

 by its oerupant, and iiopularly desig-nated a ' cucoun.'' This covering is ii characteristic 

 distinction of the whole tribe, and has in eacli spinies a peculiar I'orm, which is re- 

 produced iustinclively with unvarying uuiforniity."

Of the Atlas moth Dr. Mason says: "The Atlas nnitli is one of the largest 

 insects of the moth trilic known. The smallest spi'cinicns 1 have seen measured 

 from eight to nine inches in the expanse of its wings, which were pencilled with 

 the richest umber, browu and yellow, and bordered with magnificent ocelli. This 

 moth belongs to the silkworm family, and until recently was known to entomologists 

 only as a native ot Chimi; but it also abo\inds in liuinia. This is probably the 

 insect which Mr. BIyth had from Bangoon, of which he wrote: "A well-known 

 moth from Burma. J'halcnn putrochtK ; a si)leniHd species common lu collections 

 from Chiua, Assam, Silhet, and Aracau."
