Explanation of Plate XIV, 



Fig. 1. StenoptUia grandis, (^, real size 



3. ,, probably grandis, ^ , real size, from Pajares. 



4. End of fore-wing of S. grandis x 3 diameters. 



" " ^- coprodactylus x 4 diameters. 



" " ^- pneumonanthes x 4 diameters 



Note, to make them look same size on the plate, the artist has 

 magnified grandis only three times, the others four; unfortunately 

 this obscures the great difference in size. 



The figure 6 rather exaggerates the squareness of the end of the 

 plume m pneumonanthes, which in truth hardly affects the outline 

 of the wing but refers to the pale cross line. It illustrates how 

 when you tell an artist what you see, he often sees it more distinctly 

 and clearly than you do, and it is by no means always the artist 

 who IS wrong. 



8-13. Dark forms of H. hyerana-kyerana. 

 1 4-1 5 



" " V ), margmata. 



These are the darkest hitherto bred and are some of those 

 mentioned in Proc. Ent. Soc, 1907, p. ii. 



Compare these with figures of ordinary forms figured in E M M 

 Vol. 42, 1906, PI. 3, and Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond. 1906, PI. VIII.* ''
