References to Leach in Brewster's Encyclopa3clia are to the paging in 

 the American edition ; all the references to liewitsou's Exotic Butter- 

 flies are at second-hand. 



In conclusion, I would return my thanks to many entomologists who 

 have answered special inquiries concerning works and insects to which 

 I had no ready access ; and especially to Mr. TV. F. Kirby, of Dublin, 

 and the late ]\Ir. G. R. Crotch, of Cambridge, with whom I have con- 

 stantly consulted, and whose aid has been of the greatest importance. 



1. Ad^is. 

 181G. Iliibn., Verz. 97: Nicippe, Cebrene (Arethusa), Brigitta. 

 1870. Butl., Cist. Ent. i. 05 : designated Xicippe as type. 

 1872. Scudd., Syst. Rev. 39: does the same. 



Nevertheless Nicippe cannot lie taken as the type, for that species 

 must be reserved for Xanthidla (18"29). The other species referred to 

 it belonging to the genus Eurema (1816), Cebrene may be taken aa 

 the type.
