Fig. 



5. Lycorea pasinuntia, dark form with faint trace of inner end of 



pale subniarginal band : captured by C. B. Roberts, Nov. — 

 Dec. 1901 : in Coll. Kaye. 



6. Lycorea pasinuntia, darkest form : captured by C. B. Roberts 

 in 1901 : in Coll. Kaye. 



7. Lycorea ceres, barred form : captured by C. B. Roberts, Nov. — 



Dec. 1901 : in Coll. Kaye. 



8. Lycorea ceres, darker barred form : captured by C. B. Roberts, 



Oct. 1901 : in Coll. Kaye. 



9. Lycorea ceres, median section of pale subniarginal band has 



disappeared : captured by C. B. Roberts, 1901, probably Dec, 

 or 1902, probably Jan. : in Hope Dep. 



10. Lycorea ceres, more complete disappearance of median section of 



pale band : captured by C. B. Roberts, 1901, probably Dec, 

 or 1902, probably Jan. : in Hope Dep. 



1 1. Lycorea ceres, subniarginal bar as in last figure ; the pale discal 



bar is however far more reduced in the specimen here repre- 

 sented : captured by C. B. Roberts, 1901, probably Dec, or 

 1902, probably Jan. : in Hope Dep. 



12. Lycorea ceres, darkest form, only the costal end of the sub- 



marginal bar can now be detected, while the inner section of 

 the discal bar is only represented by traces, and its outer part 

 has disappeared. In this important respect Lycorea ceres is 

 much in advance of L. pasinuntia in the tendency towards 

 progressive darkening : C. B. Roberts, 1901, probably Dec, 

 or 1902, probably Jan. : in Hope Dep.
