Question 23.— (G. T. Bethune-Baker.) 



Are we to substitute " virga'areae L. inalpinus Vty." in 

 lieu of " virgaareae L. Central European race " 1 



Opinion 23. — Linne's Papilio virgaureae [Syst. Nat. (ed. 10) 

 1. 484 sp. 161 (1758)] was a comprehensive term, but in the 

 Fauna Suecica [(ed. 2) 285 sp. 1079 (1761)] the only locality 

 mentioned is "i« pratis Westmanniae," so the specimen from 

 that locality may be taken as topotypical.

Question 24.— (G. T. Bethune-Baker.) 



Are we to substitute " hippothoe hippothoe L." in lieu of 

 " hippothoe stieheri Ger." ? 



Opinion 24. — The Type-locality for Papilio hippothoe Linne 



[Fn. Suec. (ed. 2) 274 sp. 1046 (1761)] is Sweden ^'' Habitat 

 apnd nos rarissime.'' Specialists must decide whether stieheri 

 Gerh. is identical with, or distinct from hippothoe L. — the 

 same remark applies to mirus Vty.
