Freund, der rnterschied der Erdendiugc 

 Seheinet 'Toss uiid ist so oft geringe; 

 Alter unil Gostalt uiid liaum uiid Zeit 

 Sind ('ill Triuiiiiliild inir der Wirkiichkeit.

 Sah ein Schinetterliii- die Kaupe schleichen 

 Und erhol) sieh frolieli, argwuhufrei, 

 Dass er Raupe selbst gewescn sei. 



Traurig schlicb die alternde zuiii Grabe: 

 "Acb, dass ioh umsonst gelebet habe! 

 Sterbe kiiiderlos und wie geringi 

 Und da Hiegt der schOne Schmetterling." 



Aengstlieh .spanu sie sich in ihre Hiille, 

 Schlief, und als der Mutter LebensfUlle 

 Sie erweekte, wahnte sie sich neu, 

 Wusste nicht. was sie gewesen sei. 



Freund, ein Traumreich ist das Reich der Erden. 

 Was wir waren, was wir eiust noch werden — 

 Niemand weiss es; gliicklich siud wir blind; 

 Lass uiis eins nur wissen : was wir sind.

Imago (57: 0). Head large, covered in front of the antennae with abundant, 

 rather long, forward and upward directed hairs, behind the antennae with short dense 

 pile. Front a little tumid, below somewhat protuberant and forming a slightly in- 

 dicated longitudinal carina; lower half projecting considerably beyond the front of the 

 eyes; at the sides, and to a greater degree above than below, the front is somewhat 

 depressed below the eyes, and next the border on the upper half there is a very slight 

 sulcation, directed toward the outer half of the antennae; below the antennae the 

 front is fully as broad as high, and nearly as broad as the eyes on a front view; upper 

 border projecting narrowly between the antennae ; lower border broadly rounded. 

 Vertex somewhat tumid, forming a rather strongly curving, broad, transverse ridge, 

 opening in front, with a slight, transverse, semilunar depression in the middle, infring- 

 ing on the front of the ridge. Eyes (86:20,21) very large and very full, naked. 

 Antennae inserted with their anterior edge in the middle of the summit, separated by 

 a space scarcely equal to one-third the diameter of the second antennal joint; as Ion" 

 as the abdomen, consisting of forty-four joints, each spreading very minutely at its 

 tip in enclosing the base of the succeeding joint, especially upon the inner side, so as to 

 mark the joints very distinctly ; the terminal thirteen or fourteen form the considerably 

 compressed club, flattened on the outer side, scarcely more than half as broad again as 

 the stalk, ten times as long as broad, increasing in size so gradually as to make the 

 limit of the club very vague, scarcely diminishing in size at the tip, excepting the 

 apical joint, which is very abruptly conical, with a rounded apex: when viewed from 

 above, it is but little larger than the stalk and scarcely tapers at the tip. Palpi very 

 minute, rather slender, fringed with long, upward directed hairs, and reaching the 

 middle of the front of the eyes.
