Linnean Butterflies. 137 



which he describes somewhat inaccurately thus : — " pos- 

 ticis subtus linea sanguinea," varies a good deal in inten- 

 sity of colour in different specimens. 



41. P. Phidippus (Amathusia), Joh. Amoen. Acad.vi. 

 p. 402. Lin. S. N. 1767, p. 752. 



42. P. Jason. In the last edition of the Sy sterna, 

 Linnseus describes another species under the same name 

 (n. 29, above) . 



43. P. Protesilaus. Typ. refs. * Sloane, Jam. ii. t. 

 239, f. 1, 2 ; * Mer. Ins. Sur. t. 43 ; * Catesby, Car. ii. 

 t. 100; later refs. CI. t. 27, f. 2, /S; Seba, Mus. i. t. 11, 

 f. 2; *Edw. t. 34. Catesby's figure represents a species 

 allied to Marcellus, Cram. ; Edwards^ is the same quoted 

 by Linnseus for P. Ajax [n. 3b); Sloane's figure repre- 

 sents a species of Timetes. 



44. P. Nestor (Morpho) . Ref. *Mer. Ins. Sur. t. 9. 

 This is considered to be the ? of MorpJio Menelaus (n. 

 23), Some separate Cramer's Nestor: but it hardly 

 seems to differ materially from Merian's figure, except in 

 wanting one of the eyes of the underside of the hind- 

 wings, Merian representing 5, and Cramer 4 only. 



45. P. Telemaclms (Morpho) . Eef. *Mer. Ins. Sur. t. 

 68. Westwood (Gen. D. L. ii. p, 339) refers this species, 

 which is very badly figured by Merian, to Morpho 

 Anaxihia, Esp. ? , with doubt. Cramer's Telemachus is 

 totally different. 



46. P. Achilles (Morpho) . Typ. refs. * Mer. Ins. Sur. 

 t. 7 ; Knorr, Delic. t. C 2, f. 1, 2 ; later ref. CI. t. 

 24, f. 2. Merian's figure does not agree with Linnasus' 

 description, or Cramer's figures ; but it almost exactly 

 corresponds with a Morpho from Nicaragua in the Royal 

 Dublin Society's collection. 



47. P. Medon (Romaleosoma), Clerck and Johansson. 

 Typ. ref. CI. t. 28, f. 1. (See Butl. Proc. Zool. Soc, 

 1865, pp. 672, 673). 



48. P. Teucer (Caligo) . Typ. ref. * Mer. Ins. Sur. t. 23, 



49. P. Demoleus. Typ. ref. Ehret, t. 5 ; later ref. * Roes, 

 add. t. 1, f. 2, 3. The locality given by Linnseus (Cape 

 of Good Hope) fixes this species. 



50. P. Idomeneus (Caligo). Typ. refs. *Pet. Gaz. t, 

 28, f. 1 ; *Mer. Ins. Sur. t. 60; later ref. CI. t. 20, f. 1, 

 Petiver's figure represents C. Teucer (n. 48).
