Occasional Papers of the Museum of Zoology 15 



The arable numerals under each species refer to the date 

 in July, 1914, but when followed by 1913 indicate the day of 

 the same month of the preceding year. The species are num- 

 bered separately under the Rhopalocera and Heterocera for 

 ease of reference. The nomenclature of the Heterocera fol- 

 lows Dyar's check-list.
