Lepidoptcra Rhopalocera of Trinidad. 177 



67. Adelpha plesauee. 



Adelpha plesaure, Hiibn., Zutr. Ex. Schmett., pp. 231, 

 232 (1823). 



Range. Brazil; Colombia. 



68. Aganisthos odius. 



Papilio odius, Fabr., Syst. Ent., p. 457, n. 60 (1775), 



Range. Tropical South America; Central America ; 

 Florida; Jamaica; Hayti; the last two producing the 

 form orion. 



Evidently never abundant. The form is always true 

 odius with the narrow pointed yellow area present which 

 is characteristic of the mainland ; the forms in Hayti 

 and Jamaica being very distinct with the more truncate 

 yellow marking. 



69. Prepona demophon. 



Papilio demophon, Clerck, Icones, t, 29, f, 2, t, 42, f, 



3 (1764), 



Range. Amazons. 



This is probably the commonest species of the genus in 

 the Island. I only once saw it myself in the Maraval 

 Valley. Its habits are peculiar. It settles amongst low 

 herbage and is not easily induced to rise, but shviffles about 

 so that very soon the specimen becomes a wreck. 



70. Prepona antimache. 



Morpho antimache, HUbn., Verz. bek. Schmett., p. 49, 

 n. 458 (1816). 



Range. Amazons; Bermudas. 



Uncommon. Maraval Valley {W. J. Kaye). Has a 

 habit of settling amongst low herbage. 



71. Prepona demodice. 



Nymphalis demodice, Godart, Enc. Meth., ix, p. 408, 

 n. 193 (1823), 



Range. Colombia; Brazil. 



This magnificent species is included on the strength of 

 Mr. Crowfoot's record. I have just received a good 

 specimen from Sangre Grande, thus confirming the record.
