Ninety-six insects of many groups from the Botanic 
Gardens, Singapore (Feb., March, 1905), of which 58 are

Six hundred and ninety-three insects of many groups from 
the Malay Peninsula (Feb., March, 1905), of which 491 are 
catalogued. The great majority of the specimens were 
captured in the Larut Hills, Perak, at a height of 4,o00- 
4,500 ft. 
A specimen of the Australian Danaine butterfly Zimmnas 
petilia, captured (Oct. 14, 1904) at Flying Fish Cove, Christ- 
mas Island, by R. Hanitsch, Esq., was also presented by R. 
Shelford, Esq. 
Fifteen butterflies and 1 moth from localities visited by 
Mr. Shelford exhibit injuries, probably due to the attacks of 
enemies. In all cases except five the injury was observed 
before the capture of the insect. All have been added to the 
bionomic series, together with a Papilio and an Ornithoptera 
in which Mr. Shelford had noted the remarkable tenacity of 
life so often found in specially protected forms, The observa- 
tion suppots the conclusion already reached on other grounds 
that the Papilioninae are a distasteful group. 
A Euploeine model and its Elymniine mimic captured on 
the same day in the Larut Hills, Perak, have been added to 
the bionomic series, together with a Dammar bee (JZelipona) 
and 3 different Diptera, mimicking its simple and character- 
istic black and white pattern. The latter group is from 
Kuching, Sarawak, and from the same locality the bionomic 
series has been enriched by another mimetic fly (Cevza) and
