Pseudacraea eurytus hobleyi. 609 
COMBINATION IA. 
The model, Planema pogger nelsoni (Plate XXXVI, 
figs. 3, 4), was the scarcest of all the Planemas on Bugalla 
Island : I only succeeded in taking 2 males and no females 
during the 14 months I was there. , 
Its chief mimic, Pseudacraea kuenowi hypoxantha, 
was not so uncommon, 3 males and 6 females having 
been taken. This fine Pseudacraea seemed to vary 
very little indeed: a marked contrast to the protean 
Ps. eurytus hobleyi. I found it quite easy to distinguish 
the living kuenowi from the ¢ hobleyi: its flight is very 
much bolder, it seems even more alert, with brisker move- 
ments; and when seen on the flowers of bushes which it 
frequents, it appears to carry the wings in a slightly 
different manner. I have never been deceived by its 
likeness to the model as in the case of hobleyi. 
Two females of ewrytus hobley fall into this combination. 
They belong to the form poggeoides (Plate XX XVI, fig. 10), 
with a yellow band across the fore-wing. This is not quite 
of the same tint as the orange band of the male, and 
corresponds with the band of poggei rather than of the 3 
macarista. 
A single specimen of the planemoides female of Pap. 
dardanus was obtained. It is worth noting that, although 
I had been collecting for two years before I came across 
this interesting butterfly, I was completely deceived by it. 
It was flying slowly in front of me in an open space in the 
forest belt, and my first thought was ‘‘ What an enormous 
Planema!”’, so much did its general appearance and flight 
resemble its model. When captured, it lay perfectly still 
in the net, as does its model, instead of fluttering wildly 
like so many Papilios. This specimen is of particular 
interest, for from ova obtained from it I was able to rear 
the family exhibited at a meeting of the society (Proceed- 
ings, 1913, p. lui) and figured on Plate XXXIX of the 
present volume. It is worth mentioning that I only col- 
lected one other dardanus female on Bugalla—of the form 
hippocoon, F. 
CoMBINATION Is. 
Of the model, the male Pl. macarista (Plate XXXVI, 
fig. 2), 10 were taken. 
Acraeine mimics are represented by the female of 
Acraea alciope—synaposematic with the male macarista :
