1895. PBOCEEDINGS OF THE NATIONAL MUSEUM. 245 



Genus ERONIA, Hubner. 



ERONIA DILATATA, Butler. 



Evonia dilaiata, Butler, Proc. Zool. Soc. Loud., 1888, p. 96. 

 The species is represented in the collection by six males, most of which 

 are in very good condition. 



Genus CATOPSILIA, Hubner. 



CATOPSILIA FLORELLA (Fabricius). 



FapUio fiorella, Fabricius, ,Syst. Eiit., p. 479, No. 159 (1775).— Trimen, South Afr. 

 Butt., Ill, p. 185. 



There are iiamierous specimens of the male, and several specimens of 

 the female of this species. The course which Mr. Trimen pursues in 

 making all the forms of CatopsiUa [GalUdnjas) found upon the African 

 continent to be merely forms of the one species, Fiorella, seems to me 

 reasonable. Three of the females in the Abbott collection are of the 

 yellow (Rhadia) form, and one is white. The yellow is the form I have 

 prevalently received from Gaboon and the Congo region, from Avhich I 

 have in recent years obtained scores of specimens. It is the predomi- 

 nant form of the female.

Genus PAPILIO, Linnaeus. 



PAPILIO DEMOLEUS, Linnaeus. 



FapiUo demoleus, Linn-EUs, Mus. Ulr., p. 214 (1764). 

 Numerous examples of this exceedingly common species. 



PAPILIO LY^flEUS, Doubleday. 



FapUio hicnifi, Doubleday, Ann. Xat. Hist., XVI, p. 178 (1845). — Trimen, S. 

 Afr. Butt., Ill, p. 237. 



I follow Mr. Trimen in separating this form from P. nireus, but do so, 

 as JNEr. Trimen admits that he himself does, with nuicli doubt as to the 

 scientific accuracy of this course, though there is some profit no doubt 

 in clearly discriminating between the two forms. 



PAPILIO CORINNEUS, Bertholini. 



FapUio corinneus, Bertholini, Mem. Acad. Sci. Bologn., 1849, p. 9, pi. i, figs. 1-3. — 

 Trimen, S. Afr. Butt., Ill, p. 217. 



Two specimens of this species.

FapUio cenea, Stoll, Suppl. Cram. Pap. Exot., p. 134, pi. xxix, figs. 1, la (1791). 

 Two males of the variety with the very broad black submarginal 

 band u})ou the secondaries.
