Habitat; Guinea (D. Westermann). In Mus. Hopeiano Oxoniw, Dublinense, Hewitson, &c. 
Specimens of this lovely insect were taken in Guinea by the late celebrated entomologist, Herr Wester- 
mann of Copenhagen, by whom the species was communicated to the Rev. F. W. Hope, Dr. Boisduval, and 
other entomologists ; and its specific name, adopted above, was proposed for it by the last-named author in his 
manuscripts. Mr. Hewitson has received (June, 1873) a number of specimens, all being males, from his col- 
lector, Mr. Rogers, taken in Angola, south of Congo. 
JUNONIA WESTERMANNI. (Fom.?) Prare XXXIV, Fic. 8. 
The insect here represented was kindly sent to me from the Royal Dublin Society of Natural History for 
illustration in this work by Mr. W. F. Kirby (the indefatigable author of a most useful ‘Synonymic Catalogue 
of Diurnal Lepidoptera ’), by whom it was considered to be the female of J. Westermanni, of which specimens had 
been received with it from Cape Coast, Africa. It will be observed, however, that, in addition to other charac- 
ters, the middle of the hind wings wants the undulated markings of the male. 
‘It differs strikingly from the male in the upper side. It is brown above, the base darker, the whole of 
the centre of the hind wings filled with a broad orange band (much duller than in the male) which extends to 
the adjacent portion of the fore wings, curving inwards across the cell, where it becomes much more obscure. 
The orange band of the hind wings seems to have been edged with lilac-blue, and there are traces of detached 
bright blue scales in the cell of the fore wings. There is a row of five black spots towards the edge of the 
orange on the hind wings (visible on the under side in the male also), and continued, in the female, on the fore 
wings, although the only conspicuous spot is one near the hinder angle of the fore wings. Beneath, the female 
chiefly differs in wanting nearly all the dark markings, and in the orange markings being more suffused and 
not sharply defined as in the male.’
