494 Mr. G. A. Waterhouse on three collections of 



Melanitis leda, Linn. 



Nausori, 2 ^, 4 $. Satapaitea, 2 ^ ^. Lufilufi, $. Sali- 

 lalonga, 3 $. Lautoka, $. 



All the specimens obtained were ocellated forms. I am 

 of opinion that M. leda is much better regarded as an 

 extremely variable species, than as a number of locally 

 distinct forms. Some of my Fijian specimens are identical 

 with Australian, of which I have examined considerably 

 over one hundred specimens without being able to detect 

 any character that is not subject to variation. 



Zizera lahradus, Godt. 



Bua, $ $. Navaloa, $ $. Apia, $ $. Lufilufi, $ $. Sata- 

 paitea, $ ^. 



Very common. I have this species from the New 

 Hebrides and a great number of specimens from Eastern 

 Australia from localities ranging from Cape York to 

 Victoria, and find it variable as to size and coloration. I 

 have Australian specimens identical with Butler's figure 

 of Z. caduca* and have no doubt that Druce was quite 

 correct in considering it as a synonym of this species. My 

 New Hebrides specimens are hardly different from some 

 Australian specimens. 



Zizera alsuhcs, Herrich-Schaffer. 



Lufilufi, 3 ^. Satapaitea, 4 ^, 2 $. 



I have already shown j" that I consider that this is the 

 older name for Mathew's Lyciena luln. 



Nacaduha samoensis, H. H. Druce. 

 Satapaitea, ^. 



Jamides woodfordi, Butler. 

 Bua, ^ ?. 



Common. Unfortunately this species has not been 

 figured, but I have little doubt that my determination is 

 correct.
