HESPERIDJE. 



I have hei'e o-rouped towetliei" a number of species, many of which, it must be admitted, offer such diversities in their general apjiearanoe 

 as to render tlie genus a very artificial one; but, unless the family be cut up even to a greater extent than was proposed by Htibuer, 

 I know no more advantageous mode of treating the species. I have, however, adopted various divisions, although it is impossible to be 

 certain as to tlie location of many of the species, from the insufficient descriptions of tlie describers.
