152 Dr. T. A. Chapman's Observations on 



a little eminence and scar sitggesting where the missing I would have 

 been. On the front outer angle of metathorax are two minute black 

 dots. On the first abdominal segment at same place, is a similar dot 

 with a large spiracle-like oval scar behind it and of a dark colour. 

 Otherwise there are no hairs or other structures, except the small 

 ochreous spiracles down to the siibspiracular flange, on this are two 

 minute black dots (IV and V) on 3rd to 7th segments, on 8th are at 

 the same places two short (0'3 mm.) hairs. These are repeated on 9, 

 except that the 1st has another just below it. On 10th one 

 similar hair seems distinct from cremaster hairs to which it is very 

 close and equally short but straight. The double dots that occur on 

 3rd abdominal to 7th are forwards rather close together and behind 

 the spiracle. More ventral on 5th, 6th and 7th abdominal segments, in 

 fact ventral, are on either side two short deflexed hairs (VII) about 

 0-1 and 0'2 mm. long; on a pale line between these and the subspira- 

 cular flange is a small black dot, hardly a hair (VI). A similar trace 

 of III is also to be detected. On the several lines of these, viz. Ill, 

 IV + V, VI and + VII, there are longitudinal pale lines, that look 

 sometimes like ridges, largely owing however to coloration, but this is 

 just so much raised on the subspiracular (IV and V) one that I 

 have ventured to call it " subsp. flange." 



The appendages reach to the middle and even to the posterior 

 margin (in S si) of 5th al^dominal and look attached to them but 

 are free beyond 3rd. 



The cremaster consists of two portions, a small one in centre of 

 9th and a larger one on 10th. The hairs, together with the 

 dorsum of the last two segments, are pinkish about 0"] mm. long, 

 straight or nearly so with a small knob at one side of the end, as 

 though a hook had soldered itself to the shaft where it had turned 

 round to. 







The appendages are transparent green, witli rather darker olive 

 shading, beside the wing veins, on antenna?, and first leg. 



The variation in the colour of the pupa is first in the 

 amount of pink. This tends to fade as the pupa matures, 

 and some pupoB lose it altogether, becoming entirely green. 

 One pupa, on the other hand, has a dorsal, a broad sub- 

 dorsal (through hump and hair bases), and a lower (along 

 III ?) rose-pink line nearly continuous from end to end of 

 the pupa, and is consequently a handsome, brilliant pupa. 

 The depth of green also varies a little, especially on the
