  Note. 
  — 
  The 
  reference 
  to 
  Pelopccus 
  violacetis 
  (p. 
  12) 
  should 
  be 
  deleted. 
  

   I 
  now 
  believe, 
  contrary 
  to 
  the 
  opinion 
  of 
  Andre, 
  that 
  the 
  European 
  P. 
  violaceics 
  

   is 
  not 
  found 
  in 
  India, 
  and 
  is 
  quite 
  distinct 
  from 
  P. 
  bengaknsis.
