144 Dr. G. B. Longstaff’s Notes on the Butterflies, ete. 
to be closely associated with wetness and dryness respect- 
ively. Catopsilia pyranthe, as Dr. Dixey has shown, 
occupies a far less clear position, and I may add that 
Terias hecabe did not appear to me to follow any rule. The 
two forms were taken together in most places. 
Many dwarfed specimens of the genus Precis were met 
with as the season advanced; with the exception of one 
P. almana, var. asterie, they were all of the dry type, most 
of them markedly so. The smallest Zerias hecabe was of 
the dry form, so was a dwarf 7’eracolus dulcis; four dwarfed 
T. etrida were half dry, half intermediate. A dwarf 
Belenois mesentina was dry, but a dwarf Catopsilia pyranthe 
and a dwarf Huphina nerissa were intermediate, while a 
dwarf Teracolus calais was actually of the wet-season form. 
In conclusion I have to thank the President for much 
valuable assistance in many ways; I am greatly indebted 
to Mr. Hamilton H. Druce for most kindly naming all my 
Lyczenids and Hesperids, to Sir George Hampson for much 
help in naming my moths, to Mr. W. F. Kirby for kindly 
naming my O7rthoptera and Neuroptera, to Col. C. T. 
Bingham, Mr, G. E. Austen, and Mr. Claude Morley; to 
the Rev. F. D. Morice for naming my Hymenoptera; to 
Commander J. J. Walker, R.N., whose practical experience 
in many lands was of much assistance, and to Mr. W. 
Holland of the Hope Department for constant help, while 
to, Dr. F. A. Dixey I am indebted not only for the names 
of all my Pierines and much information about them, but 
for continual encouragement and inspiration.
