X THE COLOUES OF ANIMALS 



raupen ' (' Zoologische Jahrbiicher,' J. W. Spengel, 

 Jena, 1886). Figure 42 is copied from Vogt ('The 

 Natural History of Animals ' : English translation : 

 Blackie and Son). Figures 44 and 45 are copied 

 from the plates accompanying Curtis's 'British 

 Lepidoptera.' The remaining figures are original. 

 Figure 17 was kindly lent me by Dr. A. E. Wallace, 

 to whom it had been sent by Mr. Wood-Mason. In 

 preparing the drawings of the original figures I have 

 been greatly assisted by my wife, my sister Miss L. S. 

 Poulton, Miss Horman Fisher, Mr. Alfred Sich, 

 Mr. Alfred Robinson, and especially by Miss Cundell. 

 I have almost invariably referred to original 

 papers from which facts or conclusions have been 

 adopted; so that any reader having access to a 

 scientific library may easily gain possession of further 

 details. Not wishing to overburden the book with 

 such notes, I have abstained from referring constantly 

 to my own papers, although most of the examples are 

 taken from them. A list of my papers which deal 

 with the colours of insects is therefore printed below.
