“Supplementary notes on new or little-known forms of

tion of a new form of Acraea encedon by Prof. E. B. Poutton, 
D.Se.; F.B-S. 
Prof. Pouxron, in giving an account of Mr. W. A. Lamborn’s 
paper, stated that it contained careful observations on the 
association between three species of Liptenine Lycaenidae 
and particular species of ants, and recorded facts from which 
such an association could be inferred in three other species. 
The same association was described, often in great detail, 
between seventeen species of Lycaeninae and their respective 
ants. Hight species of Lycaenesthes (s. 1.) were included among 
these. The paper also contained an account of the habits 
of several carnivorous Lepidopterous larvae, including some 
of the Lycaenidae which fed upon ant-tended Homoptera. 
Careful observations upon the life-history of the Membracidae 
and their association with ants were also put on record. An 
important appendix, in which the new species and genera are 
described, was contributed by Mr. G. T. BerHunr-Baker, Pres. 
Ent. Soc., Mr. W. L. Distant, Mr. J. Harttey Durrant, 
and Prof. R. Newsteap, F.R.S.
