"I find on searching through the works and figures of 

 various authors that my views are largely upheld. An 

 examination of Zeller's material in the British Museum 

 collection has also proved interesting. 



" Huhner's three figures of C. iphif< are of importance as 

 being the oldest figures of this species. Fig. 249 represents 

 a male, of a rich dark brown colour and with no darker 

 margin. There is a trace of one small ocellated spot near 

 the anal angle of the hindwing, and no trace of the orange 

 marginal line (or blotch) at the anal angle. Fig. 250 is a 

 female and has the forewings of an ochreous hue with a 

 darker shaded outer margin ; the hindwings fuscous. There 

 is an orange line edging the margin of all the wings ; two 

 small ocellated spots on the forewings and three on the hind- 

 wings. Fig. 251 represents an underside exactly intermediate 

 between typical /^)/(/.s and satj/yion, inasmuch as the white 

 transverse band on the underside of the hindwings is 

 complete, but is just within, and does not contain, the series 

 of ocellated spots which are otherwise conspicuous. 



"Hiibner's figures (254, 255) of philm, referred by 

 Staudinger to sati/n'on, show distinctly the connection 

 between t])Jns and saUjrion. Fig. 254 is of the same colour as 

 fig. 249 (ipJiis), bub with a darker margin to the forewings 

 made up of triangular interneural blotches having the 

 bases on the margin of the wing. The hindwings are 

 darker at the base, but there is a paler marginal band, in 

 which a series of five dots can be seen, showing through, as 

 it were, from the underside. An orange-red marginal line 

 runs round the hindwings as in his fig. 250 (iphis). Fig. 255 

 represents the underside, and is of a very characteristic iphis 

 appearance, as to colour and grey apex of forewings, but it 

 has a very complete transverse whitish band on the hind- 

 wings, in which is the series of ocellated spots. It is very 

 like the 9th specimen in Row 3, which, although banded, has 

 particularly strong ipJns characters. 



" Esper's figure (PI. 122, fig. 2) of satyrion, to which 

 Staudinger refers as the type of the species, is absurdly bad. 

 The bases of the forewings are orange and the outer margins 

 of the forewings and the bases of the hindwings are pink.
