black on these pupas, which also occurs in other species, is probably also a 

 phenomenon of an evolutional nature which shows that the phenomenon of 

 colour-evolution is also to be observed among pupae. 



In the Trans, of the Ent. Soc. of Loidon. 1888. G. D. F. Matthew gives 

 the life-history of P. Teutonia F. from Australia, New Guinea and some other 

 Polynesian islands. According to W. J. Rainbow this P. Teutonia F. is the 

 same species as P. Java Sparrm. L. ; the specimens of Teutonia, however, 

 which I have seen, differ so much from Java, that they undoubtedly belong 

 to another race. According to the above mentioned entomologist, Teutonia 

 occurs in Australia much more abundantly one year than another, and is also 

 said to appear in great flights every now and then, as f. i. in 1903, which 

 never is the case in Java. This butterfly is said to be known there under 

 the name of the Cape- White and to have a spring and a summer brood ; both 

 sexes are also said to show more black than Java and in some 9 the hind- 

 wings are almost quite black. In Australia also, the caterpillar is said to live 

 on Capparis.

Occurs all over Java and is not rare; but I never found this butterfly so 

 common as Horsfield states it to be. In many parts it is entirely wanting. 

 The upper- side of the 9 has much more black than that of the <3 ; but in some 

 specimens, this is stronger than in others. 



W. J. As to the vicinity of Batavia exclusively in the lowest localities, 

 viz. in the forest of Pademangan. Furthermore at Tjampea (160), also in the 

 Megamendoung, Salak, and Wajang mountains (1000 — 1500), at Soukapoura in 

 the province of Prajangan and on mount Tjerimai in the province of Tjirebon.
