Among the Prerinac, Mylothris tirikensis, Neave, has been 
described. 
2. Nyangori (5,000 ft.), 6 miles S. of the Equator, on the 
road to Nandi, near Kisumu. Forest. Nov. 1902 and April 
1903. Seven hundred and eighty-three Lepidoptera, almost 
exclusively butterflies, came from this locality, and 461 have 
been catalogued, and many others provisionally added to the 
collection. The finest insect in this very fine series is a 
mimetic Papilio, intermediate between P. rex and P. mime- 
ticus. Of this splendid form 3 g and 2 ¢ were present. 
Many specimens of the western form of Papilio dardanus are 
also included, the females being of the Azppocoon form. 
3. Ugaia, and between Ugaia and Kisingiri (3,800 ft.), 
S. Kavirondo, on the N.E. shore of the Lake. Jan. 1903. 
Four hundred and fifty-seven butterflies, of which 285 are 
catalogued and many more provisionally added, came from this 
locality. The Pzerinae are especially fine and numerous (164 
specimens), One specimen of the beautiful Danaine butterfly, 
Melinda formosa, was present, while the Papilioninae included 
the remarkable P. zodziis. 
4. Entebbe (4,000 ft.), on the N.W. shore of the Lake. 
Plain, with patches of forest. Early April 1903. Five 
hundred and seventy-seven butterflies were captured, but as 
they had become much injured by mould, rather less than 
half (271) were catalogued as permanent accessions. The 
Danainae included MWelinda mercedonia, and the Acracinae 
contained many species hitherto unrepresented in the collection. 
Among the Papilioninae, Mr. S. A. Neave described as new 
Papilio gallienus peculiaris and P. gallienus whitnall. A 
small series of 17 butterflies, collected by Major Rattray in 
the same locality (June 1902), was given to Mr. Wiggins, and 
presented by him to the Hope Department. Nine of these 
have been catalogued and incorporated. 
It has already been stated that this splendid accession is 
only partially catalogued, but the above four sections will 
convey some idea of its importance. 
Ten butterflies from S. Ethiopia were received in exchange
