culty in retaining the name Lamarchii to Gray's specimen from 

 Nicobar Island, St. Thomas' Island, or Tahiti. 



It has been suggested that the two specimens in question, 

 Cytherea Kinijii, Gray, and Cytlurea Lamarckii, Gray, are one 

 and tlie same ; if so, the name Kinyii will have precedence and 

 will therefore stand, as it was described in 1827, whereas the 

 C. Lamarckii, Gray, was described in 1838.
