450 Mr. W. A. Lamborn on the 
to bend itself sufficiently to turn over unaided. ‘Towards 
the hinder end of the body and just inside the spiracular 
line were two horny rounded eminences, one on each side 
of the mid-dorsal line. From these eminences pointed 
tubercles were from time to time thrust out, but no dorsal 
gland was detected. The tubercles appear to represent 
those of the Lycaeninae, in which group, however, they 
are more externally placed, being just to the outer side of 
and behind the spiracles of the 12th segment (see p. 488-9). 
“The head was small in proportion to the size of the 
larva and there was a definite neck, of sufficient length to 
enable the head to be thrust forward or retracted in tortoise- 
like manner under the shelter of the carapace. The anus 
was protected in a similar manner. I have witnessed the 
protective value of the carapace in a larva of this type 
as described on p. 452.” 
No. 526. Male. The pupa of this was found in the 
forest 14 miles E., on a leaf of the plant Culcasia scandens 
on Oct. 22, 1911, near black ants of the genus Cremasto- 
gaster. Kmergence, Nov. 5. 
No. 658. Female. The larva found in the forest 14 
miles E., on Jan. 26, 1912, fed up, in five days’ time, on 
Stictococct which were attended by the same ants as No. 
591, ete., viz. C. buchnert winklerv. It is especially noted 
of 24 of these ants that they were not only attending the 
Coccidae, but also running over the Lycaenid larva. 
Pupation, Jan. 31; emergence, Feb. 14. 
No. 688. Female. The larva, found in the forest 14 miles 
K., on Feb. 16, 1912, fed up on the same Coccids, and 
pupated on Feb. 21, emerging March 6. 
No. 819. Female. The larva was found in the forest 
13 miles E., on June 5, 1912, and having fed up on the 
Coccids, pupated on June 8, emerging June 24.

[A brief revision of the genus based on Mr. W. A. 
Lamborn’s material will be found on pp. 504-8. Mr. 
Kltringham’s account of the larva will be found on p. 509. ] 
The associated ant was Oecophylla smaragdina r. longi- 
noda. 
A preliminary note as to the presence of Lycaenid larvae 
and pupae in the nests of Oecophylla was communicated 
to the Entomological Society on March 20, 1912, by Prof. 
Poulton (Proceedings, pp. xxxii, xxxii), and, on Nov. 6, I
