Mr. G. Talbot, on behalf of Mr. J. J. Joicey, exhibited the 

 following Lepidoptera, chiefly from Dutch New Guinea : — 



1. Species of the genus Ddia^ recently received from the 

 Weyland Mountains district of Dutch New Guinea, and collected by 

 the brothers Pratt. Five species are distinct from any hitherto 

 known and three others have relatives in other parts of New 

 Guinea. Two new races of described forms vvere also shewn. 



Delias pemephnue, Stdgr., with its mimic Ruphina abnonnis, 

 Wall., were taken together. D. /ler.iephone was found commonly in 

 Waigou on a previous expedition, but no example of the lltijiluva 

 was taken. 



A series of Delias aruna, Bdv., showing transitions in both sexes 

 to the race iima, Friih., with black hindwing. 



2. Trnides ineridionaUs, Rths., T. paradisea, Stgr., and T. 

 tithonus, de Haan., from the same locality, all the specimens being 

 females. In the absence of males it is not certain whether the 

 Weyland Mountains forms differ from those elsewhere. The 

 tithoniis form appears to be the same as one we described from the 

 Arfak. The weridinnalis differs slightly from the typical form, a 

 specimen of which was shown for comparison. The paradisea seems 

 typical, but further north in the Arfak the female of this species 

 takes the form of meiidionalis. 



3. A gynandromorph of Danaida schenki race periphas, Friih. 

 The left side is male with a slight trace of female element in cellule 

 8 of the forewing. The right side is female, but the male element 

 is seen in the yellowish coloration of the markings. The genitalia 

 show the presence of the male organs, including the hair-pencil.
