the lepidopterous genus Huchromia. 111 
7. Huchromia celipennis, Walker. 
Two examples from Amboina; it also occurs in 
Ceram, and has recently been described and figured 
by Herr Rober, under the name of Glaucopis pagen- 
steckeri. 
8. Huchromia enone, Butler. (Pl. IV., fig. 2). 
One of the most beautiful species in the genus; we 
have a good series collected by Messrs. Woodford and 
Mathew in Alu, Sta Anna, Guadalcanar and Malayta 
(Solomon Islands). 
9. Huchromia mathewi, n.s. (PI. IV., fig. 3). 
Allied to the preceding ; decidedly smaller, the primaries with 
the subbasal elongate spot and the spot above the median vein 
smaller ; the discal patch divided into three, instead of two large 
spots; the basal patch of secondaries much wider, in the female 
uniting with the trifid patch beyond; the body is more slender 
than in H. enone, the shoulder spots pearly white instead of 
ochreous, the basal segment white at the sides, anterior coxe snow- 
white instead of metallic green, the metathorax with two metallic 
green spots placed obliquely on each side, the crimson abdominal 
segments completely encircling the abdomen; the black inter- 
vening stripes being narrower than above, but not interrupted. 
Expanse of wings, 36—41 mm. 
Solomon Islands: Three examples collected by Mr. 
Gervase Mathew. 
10. Huchromia creusa, Linn. 
This is the species figured by Cramer under the name 
of Sphinx irus, and by Herr Rober, under the name of 
Glaucopis dubia. I believe S. thelebus to be a represen- 
tation of a worn example of the same species (such as 
we have from Ceram); our series consists of two 
examples from Ceram, three from Gilolo, one from the 
Celebes, one from the Pelew Islands, and one from the 
N.E. coast of Australia. 
Var. ? EHuchromia ganymede, Doubleday. 
This handsome form is the commonest and most vari- 
able of the group ; it differs from typical H. creusa princi- 
pally in the much greater size of the hyaline spots on its 
wings ; the outer spots of the primaries vary from three
